I am not a runner. Never have been and never will be! That being said, I love the Boston Marathon. There is just something about this race that makes it so special. The history of the race might have something to do with it. Or it might be because racers need to either qualify (BQ) or need to raise money for charity in order to get a race bib. Plus the fact that all of Massachusetts is off from work on Marathon Monday is a pretty cool bonus!
So much hard work and dedication goes into every runner's training. You can see the pride on their faces as the run by. While the tragedy of last year's race will be felt by all running today; I hope and pray that this year all of the racers and fans have a safe race. Boston Strong!!!
