Who's planning to run Boston next spring?

RandMart:
MoS should be fully rehabbed by Spring. Maybe her daughter can get a bib for her, too?

Three ways into Boston.

Qualify on time.
Charity Bib.
Bandit.

Bandits are really frowned upon.
Charity Bibs start at $5000, if a charity picks you.
The qualifying window closed Sept 20.
(actually, that was the submission window, your qualifying race had to be before then)

If you were going to run Boston you had to start planning about 6 months ago,
and be a really good runner,
or be really good at raising money.

MoS may be healed by spring, but won't be in marathon shape and won't have the qualifier or charity tie in.

BonitaApplebum:
Every year I know people offering up a charity bib from some organization or other. The expectation seems to typically be that you are supposed to raise money (not necessarily as much as 5k), but I've definitely seen "no strings attached" offers of bibs that would otherwise go unused.

BonitaApplebum:
I also almost always know people who bandit each year, even though you aren't supposed to.

Coyote Mas Loco:
I made it by a bit, BQ-XX (-56 minutes actually but no one here would notice) and will wear cheap sunglasses to be incognito.
