    So who's running tomorrow? I will be running the marathon for the fourth time but for the first time since 1984. I am hoping to run a sub 3:35 in order to BQ. For you nonrunners that means run a fast enough time to be qualified to enter the Boston Marathon, which has time standards for entry. I pray that the running gods are with me and we don't get washed out.

    Good luck to the other ClutchFan's who may be running tomorrow. :)

    Awesome man, way to go! We went there and cheered on a couple of friends that were running it for the first time. It took them a little over 5 hours, but they finished.
