Boston 4/15

[El Gordo]

Fortunately (if that's the right word) it looks like Boston was a one-off, but you still worry that it will spark the imagination of some equally deluded idiot somewhere.

But more positively, well done Sweder. It's a cliché we love to drag out, but it's true -- that it's the non-running volunteers, the marshals and supporters who play just as big a part in a race. Without them, these events couldn't happen and wouldn't generate half the memories that runners take away with them.

Thank you.
