As for Hansons-LOVE IT! It will definitely be my plan for Boston too. It is intense and high mileage but the most prepared I have ever felt for a race. I believe the key is those long runs at goal pace<br />Mary Thorsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09104043500937438187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1998908277227517839.post-36076627689611958922015-05-11T11:14:05.529-07:002015-05-11T11:14:05.529-07:00Congrats on your BQ, definitely teared up reading ...Congrats on your BQ, definitely teared up reading this.

I ran my first Boston last month and cherish every minute of the journey. I plan to be back in a few years after I complete most of the other marathon majors. Next April I will be running London, but hope to cheer in Boston before I fly to England. Enjoy this sweet sweet time.

Later you said something about being blinded by my shirt, and hadn't paid any attention to my name when we were first introduced. Next year at this time, you'll have your own shirt! :-)Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15673587906852568968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1998908277227517839.post-62677170082937824812015-05-05T06:45:25.160-07:002015-05-05T06:45:25.160-07:00CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!Carolyn0107https://www.blogger.com/profile/17677343865589641501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1998908277227517839.post-60585026447645811822015-05-05T05:35:13.164-07:002015-05-05T05:35:13.164-07:00Thanks for telling us about the adventure.
