And, yes, Boston's always allowed thousands of non-qualifiers to run either for charity or for special projects like this one. New England track clubs receive free numbers to hand out to their members, sponsors or anyone they please. But they have to start in the back of the pack with that colorful cast of renegade bandits that always make the race unique.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04377440606704745517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12534874.post-38064373816341331582007-11-06T10:41:00.000-08:002007-11-06T10:41:00.000-08:00Barbie2be - Winner!!!!

I don't think Boston is THAT much harder but they do have a shorter time limit. I think they start closing things down around the 6 hour mark, but they did mention opening roads back up to traffic around the 5:30 hour mark. SDRNR marathon has a 7 hour time limit.Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03163803961338323135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12534874.post-39228774392602211472007-11-06T08:53:00.000-08:002007-11-06T08:53:00.000-08:00you either qualify for boston or sign up with a ch...you either qualify for boston or sign up with a charity like The Leukemia Foundation.
