Love the pics!

I shall return. But maybe not until 2022. I'm good at procrastinating marathons, especially Boston. Waited 35 years after BQing do to my first.

Joanie (Benoit Samuelson) 3:04 chip, 3:05:18* gun

Gene Dykes (70) 2:58

*on Joanie, is it a record or not? Here are the rules, they (IAAF and USATF) say that records are by gun time. So her record won't be a record by gun time (old record 3:05:10), but it is by chip time. What will it be?

The Age Graded Calculator ranks Samuelson's performance the as the most impressive Boston finish on Monday. The actual men's and women's winners rank fourth and fifth.

Samuelson achieved a 97.02 percent score for her 3:04 at age 61 on Monday. Dykes scored a 93.17.

Samuelson is just fabulous.  Bravo!  I was in a car on the way to the beach so didn't get to watch this year.  I feel slightly better knowing that I wouldn't have seen as much as I'd hoped.

Wilson, I'm gunning for a BQ time in late fall which would put me there in 2021.  Come run it then so I can see you before the race (cause I certainly can't hang during).

One of my granddaughters biggest thrills in college was going on a run with Joan Bonoit.  Joan Benoit was a Bowdoin graduate and randomly went for runs with the womens cross country team.
