Boston Tragedy

My thoughts and prayers go out to all Boston Marathon runners, spectators and their families. With no real details yet other then an explosions I can not comment others then to offer my deepest sympathies to all involved. Boston is the oldest marathon in the world with a fine tradition behind it - runners strive for years in training and sacrifice much just to make there. It's an honor to run and the highlight of a lifetime of running for many. Every tragedy is personal - as John Donne claimed "no man is an island" yet the running community is tight knit with a shared bond of effort, sweat and sacrifice. I feel for all connected in even the most remote way. Again my prayers to all concerned.
