2012 Boston Marathon

The Boston Marathon was this morning. I was able to watch live updates all morning on http://www.runnersworld.com/. For those not familiar...the Boston Marathon is the top marathon in the country. Not just anyone can register...you must qualify for entry by running a certified race in a specific time.
For my age group, I would need to complete a full marathon within 3:35 to qualify for the 2013 race. (Yikes)



Winners this year were all Kenyan.

Men:
Wesley Korir 2:12:40
Levy Matebo 2:13: 06
Bernard Kipyego 2:13:13

Women:
Sharon Cherop 2:31:50
Jemima Jelegat Sumgong 2:31:52
Georgina Rono 2:33:09

I would love to participate in this race one day, but I better start focusing on my pace if I ever want to qualify.
