Nice piece in the Boston Globe the other day about last year's horrendous (wonderful?) weather that almost got the race canceled. I was up at the Urban Environmental Challenge that weekend and slogged through the streams that the course had become ... and had a blast. A lot different for a marathon, of course - my dry cleaner (a sub-3:15 marathoner - and no, I didn't find out about his running talent until he passed me during a race) talked about standing at the starting line and getting completely soaked before running a step.
This year's weather forecast looks, dare I say it? Perf ... (nah, that'll jinx it, but with a high of 52 degrees in Brookline on the latter part of the course ... )
