Marathon Experience: I have run seven marathons – two Boston: 2005 and 2008.
Reason for Running: I am running Boston because it is an amazing experience- the history, the crowds, the participation in something so important to the City. Also, I live on the course (West Central Street), so running by my family and friends is a huge thrill.
