Thank You for the perspective. Being from NY, all the NYC marathon is to me (and a lot of othere people) just nothing but a pain in the ass due to the traffic. Would have never of guessed how important the marathon/Patriot's Day was to Bostonians.

Nice anthem at the Gardren..or whatever they call it now as well..

Thanks, kind of similiar to when the Montreal peeps booed our national anthem, and the next game at the Garden The Canadian national anthem was drowned out by the applause for it.

It's not just the joy of the marathon for Bostonians it's a deep love for the City that I've never experienced in all of the other places I have lived.

I returned this past fall after 12 years away and as the plane flew down over the harbour I wanted to jump out of my seat with excitement.

It was like seeing an old friend.
