Thinking about qualifying for the Boston Marathon at some point? The race you run bears some thought - for example, the New York Marathon is a hillier course than others and runs a fair amount of temperature risk.
MarathonGuide.com released a list today of marathons that had the biggest percentage of finishers qualify for Boston in 2007. Please note two caveats: First, the hot weekend in October that burnt out Chicago and Twin Cities means that both races aren't truly considered (Chicago is flat, flat ... and flat). Also, smaller races may have heightened percentages. So, like everything involving statistics, take them with a grain of salt and use the information here to adjust your own knowledge (or not).
Best of luck to everyone in Brooklyn who is participating in this year's race.
