I wouldn’t want to live anywhere where the inhabitants say “mary”. It’s pathetic.

Like Baltimore, Xxxxland? Or any DC suburbs on the northern side?

Were you abused by someone with that name?

Interesting place for sure with a mix of outdoor enthusiasts and hippies.

There aren’t any hippies. Trust funders pretending to be hippies, yes. Rich old people that used to be hippies, yes.

Nor would i want to live anywhere where people are too dense to realize that I was talking about using the term to refer to marathons, nor where they do realize it but are easily-amused pedants.

This is correct.

Gosh, whatever will we do without the likes of you?

I'd bet Flag is second and Boston and NYC metro are in the top 5.

Could be the altitude, the weed or a combination of both.

My how the mighty have fallen, but it's all relative. In just a generation, thirtysome years, Boulder has gone from a home of champions and world beaters like De Castella, Shorter, Jones, Moller, and Plaatjes to being a home of domestic greats like the Coogans, the Culpeppers, and the Gouchers to being the home of OT marathon qualifiers, albeit a lot of them. (Yes, also currently home to world class runners Coburn and Simpson, who probably wouldn't be there without the #WetmoreFactor.) I guess it just wouldn't be Boulder without some flavor of self-congratulatory gloss. Don't ever change, Boulder!

There are three types of Hippies: Rich Boulder Hippies, Smart Berkeley Hippies, Poor Eugene Hippies

Maybe you've never been to Boulder but yes we have plenty of hippies and "homefree" inhabitants that reside on the creek trail. Plenty of them trying to bum rides up to Nederland when the canyon is open.

How may qualifiers? How many from somewhere like NY, or Portland? SF maybe?

This does not provide the athlete's city but here is the list of OT qualifiers from Colorado

They are urban outdoorsmen. Also not hippies.

Now Naropa Univ was an expensive school even back in the day... wasn’t it? Boulder hasn’t changed that much
