Scott, I am so glad you got to do the Boston Marathon this year and that you are ok along with the rest of our local runners that were out there. I was so sad and sickened Monday to hear and watch what happened with this act of terrorism in our sport. I never thought I would ever see anything like this happen in our sport in a prestigous race. But, what we need to do is drive on as normal without fear and continue enjoying our sport!!!! The very purpose of these terrorst acts is to create fear and change our lives. I wanted to go do Boston this year, but couldnt make it happen, next year for sure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great job in Boston and I look forward to having a great racing year with you !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gerald Romero
