Bill Rodgers was from ct originally but lived in Boston when he was killing it
Who else?
My argument is that Massachusetts and Boston esp is a hot bed for distance runners because of the Boston Marathon attracts a lot of people into the sport plus all the other road races in New England mass clubs teams shops etc etc
Even the Kenyans are setting up in the area for running and racing regularly see them out running in Boston
Other names to add to the list??
Names I missed
