<p>Good luck to all running the Boston Marathon today.</p>

<p>Anyone have numbers for tracking?</p>
<p> </p>

<p>Good luck to <strong>Jill & Loopy</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Is there a site where you can stream it live online?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm going to venture out in a few for an easy 5.</p>

<p>Jill is 12810.   I think that's the 3rd corral in the second wave, if that's still how that works?    Good luck to Jill and the rest of the Boston marathoners today!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Back in the midwest, the rain turned to snow back to rain on my drive in this morning.    My plan to meet up with the early group dissolved as I figured there was a chance I'd be the only one there and the health club seemed much more inviting.   So 6 miles on the treadmill it was.</p>

<p>BBS-  There is no free online stream.  Universalsports.com has it for $4.99.  That is where I am going to try to watch it.</p>

<p>Hi, all.  I bit the bullet and paid the five beans to Universal so's I can watch the peeps do Boston today.  <strong>loopy</strong>'s tracking is 1106.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Day off today.</p>

 

[RunAsics]

Rest day. Getting a cold from DD. Hopefully it'll be done by April 30th. "Working from home" this morning to watch the marathon on TV via Universal Sports.

<p>Anybody having any luck watching the race?  I tried several times to pay the stupid fee and watch, but CBS wouldn't even take my money.</p>

 

[CMJHawk86]

<p>I thought about "telecommuting" just like RA today, but schlepped into the office anyway.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Runner tracking updates seem to be a little slow. Jill ought to be close to the half at this point but I just got (seconds ago) her 10k update. 51:07 (8:13/mile). That puts her around 3:35-ish pace. BTW, Tonya came through 10k in 45:10, i.e., about 3:11 pace.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Optional rest day, as I like to call it, for me today. What that really means is no run is planned but I may get the bike out after work for a short 45-60 minute ride.</p>

 

[RunAsics]

Heart rate way up with the women's race!

 

[CMJHawk86]

<p>Tonya on a metronomic pace, actually stepped it up by :01/mile. 1:35:13 at the HM point just past the scream tunnel. Maybe the guys around her got excited and picked it up and that made her pick it up? <span><img alt="wink.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/wink.gif"></span></p>

 

[Mailbox Head]

<p>What's Tonya's number?</p>
<p> </p>

 

[kfuller]

<p>2:03:01 for the mens winner today.  WOW.  Hall in 4th with a fast time, but not sure what it is yet.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Davila from the Hanson Brooks project in 2nd for women.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Avery fun Marathon to watch.</p>

 

[Mailbox Head]

<p>Hall went 2:04:55.  I'd bet he would have thought he'd have a good shot to win it with that time if you asked him before the race.  Can't blame the guy for not running a world record time to win, but I was hoping we'd have an American winner. One of these days...</p>

 

[RunAsics]

<p>Desiree Devilla kickeds ass. I though she was going to win. Almost had a heart attack.  Men's finish was crazy...2:03:01!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Holy crap. Ryan Hall 4th again in a US course record.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Tonya is 6461.</p>

 

[kfuller]

<p>That is a fast time no matter what marathon you are running.  I think that could be halls fastest yet.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Davila 2:22:38 2nd</p>
<p>Goucher 2:24:52 5th</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Nice job out there today.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Go Tonya.</p>

 

[kfuller]

<p>RA-  I was screaming at my computer when she made the surge at the end.  It was one of the best finishes.  I think that could be a PR for Hall.</p>

 

[CMJHawk86]

<p>Latest I have on Tonya is 2:18 at 30k. Seems she's slipped a bit to about 3:20 pace.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Jill came through the half in 1:51 (8:31/mile).</p>

 

[chances141]

<p><strong>loopy</strong> crushed it today.  2:54:52!</p>

 

[chances141]

<p>Looks like Kara finished 5th -- 2:24:52.</p>
