I think they keep mentioning it because it may be the only other running race some of their audience recognize.

Liquori: You shouldn't put out any more effort on the hilss than you do on the flat.
????????
Hey Marty....can you teach us how to "run hills without putting out anymore effort than when we are running on the flats"? Wait, is that Marty Liquori or Jeff Galloway doing the commentary with Rawson?????
Can anyone tell us how much Paula weighs??????????????????????
"No one runs their personal best at Boston"
Are you freakin kidding me? I know A LOT of runners who have run PBs at Boston. Shut up about Boston!!!!!!! I realize the two courses are similar (aside from the fact that Boston has a net downhill) but shut up!!! Yes we know the Athen's course is a tough one, there is (used to be?) a marathon here every year run on this course.

Boston actually has 3 inclines. There is no SINGLE heartbreak hill. There was one spot where Tarzan Brown passed Johnny Kelly, which was where the name came from for that stretch.
The downhills come around Cleveland Circle, after Lake Street and Boston College.
Hoovis,
Put the TV on mute and turn of Eurosport radio
Tim Hutchin's is giving brilliant commentary
113 according to Rawson
Did he say 8 to 10 breathes or 8 to 10 breasts? :-)
'55 breaths a minute to carry this pace'
WTF?
3.5 slices of bread...
the weight of their shoes is about 3 and a half slices of bread
WTF???
Their shoes are the weight of three to four slices of bread.
yes he Diiiiiiiiiiiid...nice catch
sourdough or french loaf?
Jeeeezzzzzzzzzzzzzz....
This may take the cake -- talking about the light weight of the runners shoes...
"They are only about 3.5 - 4 ounces...that's only as heavy as 3 or 4 slices of bread????"
WTF, who measures things using a bread scale??? Yes, before my latest marathon, I weight 1,245 slices of bread????
Hoovis
OK....quote of the race so far...."....the shoes they are wearing weigh the same as three and a half to four slices of bread..." LMAO!!!!!
Now THAT is freakin' AWESOME research!!! Does anyone out there doubt that ol Larry had the scale out on his breakfast table this morning doing this last minute research? hahahahahahha
I live on the west coast and am not getting the marathon live. I'd gladly put up with that idiot Lawson just to be able to see tha damned race!
Runnerbabe....consider yourself lucky (sort of)....otherwise you would have to listen to Rawson telling us how the women"...are learning to swallow and keep their breathing rhythmic..."
All this bullshit and they have yet to tell us anything about the two Romanians and the boyish looking Euro in the adidas kit. Larry TELL US WHO THE PEOPLE ARE IN THE FRIGGIN RACE AND WHAT THEY'RE CREDENTIALS ARE....
