If I qualified for Boston, you'd hear me scream from here.  That would 
be my dream time in this upcoming marathon, and based on my half 
marathon time in November, running a Boston qualifying time for my 
<ahem> age is in the realm of possibility.  But the second 13 are a lot 
harder than the first 13. If I did by some miracle make the qualifying 
time, I might just try to run Boston.  It's the be all and end all of 
American marathons.  I have a friend who is making a qualifying attempt 
in a marathon in a couple of weeks.  He's been very seriously applying 
himself to this goal and I'll think he'll make it.  For me it's, eh, 
would be nice, but "finishing" is my only serious goal.
