BOSTON--Today (Monday, April 21, 2008) the 112th Boston Marathon will take off at about 9:30AM Eastern Time. There is simply no road race more reknowned and respected in this country than Boston! There is something about it that just seems so pure. Maybe it's the history. Maybe it's Heartbreak Hill. Whatever it is it continues to capture the hearts of American runners and this year will see 25,283 registered runners (plus all the bandits!) challenging their bodies over the Boston streets for 26.22 Miles!
Join us in watching live webcast of the race on WCSN starting at 9:30AM and concluding at 12:30. If you happen to miss it, it will be available on demand all week. Did I mention it's free? It's really remarkable how the internet has changed the coverage of our sport and now the level of coverage that was once only available for "mainstream" sports like football, baseball, and basketball is now available to running--online.
