Boston Explained
When is the fastest marathon ever run not a world record? When is happens on a course that is not eligible to host a world record. Why not Boston? Because the finish is too far away from the start and it's not flat enough. The first is meant to avoid a course that is a straight line with a tailwind. the second limits world records to courses that drop a net of less than 1m/km. I'm not sure that those who struggled up Heartbreak Hill would be very sympathetic to the argument that Boston is too downhill. the net-net is that Geoffrey Mutai will have to be satisfied with running 2:03:02 on a course that rates as too easy.
A Boston Milestone
Congratulations to Kent Prizer who hit a milestone by making Boston his 100th marathon. Making Boston his 100th means that Kent has been very good for a very long time. Let's hope Kent keeps plugging through his second century.

While our friends in Boston enjoyed a great running day, the Hyner folk enjoyed wind, rain and muck. Nevertheless, both groups, and our other weekend runners, showed what they are made of.
