I'm in the 2013 Boston Marathon! I received the official notification from the Boston Athletic Association that my registration has been accepted. (Now I can watch for the hard-copy acceptance certificate the BAA will send by mail.)
I like the pattern of 13's: a stress fracture immediately after my 13th marathon took me out of the running of the 2009 Boston Marathon, the first I qualified and registered for. Now in 2013, I get another chance (to stay healthy through the race!).
WOOHOO!!
Yippee!! Do I dare plan on attending & cheering you on? I've always wanted to go to Boston. I even planned on moving to Boston, but Don (DH) finally asked me out. I never made it to Boston.
ReplyDeleteStay Healthy! Keep your eye on the prize, running the long, long distance. Hey, I am out here at the Ocean Drive Beach and Golf Resort in North Myrtle Beach, sitting on the balcony on the fifth floor, looking out at the beach. I just had collard greens and tuna at the bar and grill on Main, but all I see is bikers. There are Harley-Davidsons, bikers, and biker chics everywhere. No runners. I wonder when they are going to show up? Kind of warm and muggy, but great beach.

OK, someone told me the Myrtle Beach Marathon is in Feb. This weekend was the South Carolina HOG rally, as in Harley-Davidson. Too hot to run anyway.
