World Records CAN NOT happen in Boston since it's a point to point net downhill course. They can change this to 50 million, it won't ever happen. -
For those keeping track at home, this is the 114th running of the Boston Marathon.

They just clarified that that was indeed the time for the full 2 miles. -
47 at the start. Doesn't seem to be much wind. Mile 4: 5:41.

About 15 women in lead pack 23:30 into the race.

wind is in the back I heard - whenever I run, it's in my head. Damn it. ;)
-
Women on 2:26 pace through four miles.

Anyone have a good recommendation for the best way to follow the race live if your work doesn't allow streaming media?
-
I have paid to watch the race. My paid link is only 1 second ahead of that free link people have found.
But the quality of the paid link is way, way better.
Free link is here:

Also all sports are basically built on the concept that everyone will pay the league ($4 per month unkowingly normally though ESPN). This is no different and I was happy to pay. -
