The race is crowded, but I didn't have issues with keeping my pace because of people. You should be grouped with runners about your same pace.<br />4. The crowd support is almost non stop. There are a few thin areas, but the majority of the way, you will have spectators lining the road. The Wellesley part was my favorite for scenery, and even the girls cheering. I didn't get a kiss, but it was fun.<br /><br />As for the course. I think you will be very well prepared. I thought it was a tough course. For me, it wasn't just hilly at 16-21 as advertised, it was hilly the whole way. I trained on hills, but still wasn't prepared to "race" on hills. There is a BIG difference to me. I had raced many "flat and fast" courses trying to BQ, so I had very little experience with "racing hills." Many people actually PR at Boston. Also, I heard many people talking, after the race, saying "the course wasn't that bad" I had to ask one group where they were from....TN - that explained it. <br /><br />You will have a GREAT time in Boston. Not the most scenic, IMO, but the history of it, and that I had to work so hard to get there, made it great.Happy Feet 26.2https://www.blogger.com/profile/07319635538117315117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1963402677916553399.post-64967594485351342662011-03-29T13:00:48.678-05:002011-03-29T13:00:48.678-05:00Yes, boston subways and cabs are safe, that is the...Yes, boston subways and cabs are safe, that is the only question I can answer, oh Chipotle is freaking yummyBig Daddy Dieselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07868041775049514011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1963402677916553399.post-89005752068491814142011-03-29T10:46:39.759-05:002011-03-29T10:46:39.759-05:00I *love* Chipotle and have made many two-day-in-a-...I *love* Chipotle and have made many two-day-in-a-row trips there. I've given up eating out for Lent, though, so won't be back there until Easter. I always get the brown rice, if I get rice (leave off the rice and beans for same great taste, fewer calories)--maybe they only have brown rice in Boulder???<br /><br />That Boston trip sounds like a dream vacation.

It seems like the Austin Marathon hills that you ran were probably twice as hard as Boston. It just seems like the fact that the main hills start at about mile 20, and so if you don't save up enough energy for those hills you might struggle on them a bit. Seems like the same is true for the Steamtown Marathon - which is basically downhill or flat until mile 24 when it has a couple big hills. <br /><br />As for Boston itself - I visited there back in 2002, and riding the T is insanely easy. Very safe I thought. I seem to recall taking the green line to Fenway Park (definitely don't drive there as there is no parking around there), it was very safe and easy. I'd recommend getting there a bit early, it is a fun atmosphere outside the ballpark.
