I live in Australia and even though I am far removed from the tragedy of what happened in Boston, I still feel as though our community and our family has been needlessly attacked. It sickens me to think that something like this could take place at a time of such achievement for all those participating… and the culmination of many months of tireless support from those watching. My thoughts and prayers go out to Boston and all those hurt yesterday.

It’s crazy. I hope they get whoever was responsible for this.

This was a planned run, and I’ve recently decided to take up the goal of starting running and do a 5K. Yesterday’s events were indeed sad. But one thing I told me daughter is that in spite of everything, we will run, we will do our best, and we will finish. We will not stop, or shrink back in fear.

Your testimony was moving and I hope to learn more from you and other running bloggers. Thanks.

I’ve skipped the last 2 years, but am now wanting to be there again. It almost feels like it’s my responsibility to be with my extended running family in Hopkinton next April. I would not be surprised if a lot of people are feeling the way that you do.

Wonder how many people are thinking the same thing lately?

I just launched my own site btw in case you’re interested http://www.runningsoleo.com

Part of me is sad I didn’t go this year for the same reasons as you…it’s almost a survivor’s guilt kind of thing. My former LMT was running and her entire family was hurt badly–one daughter lost a leg, another has two broken legs, and her husband was burned/cut. I am just heartbroken for them and all the others. I have a huge hug waiting for all my friends when they get back home.
