By the time this hits my Blog, I will be sitting on a bus in Hopkinton, Massachusetts waiting for the start of the 115th Boston. At 10:20 AM, when the second wave starts, I’ll be on my way to Boston. It will be my 15th Boston Marathon (hey … I’ve only missed 100!).
There is no sense of purpose for this one, no hard goal. It will be a nice easy long run with friends. As easy as a 26.2 mile run can be.
This image is is from the 2009 Boston Marathon. An injury prevented me from running that year, so I filled the void with my other passion … photography. I reprocessed it in an effort to quell the pre-race jitters. I wanted to give it a vintage feel. It just felt appropriate.

Love how everyone is setting gizmos on their wrists. Great shot!
You’ve really captured a great moment here – I love the processing style, it definitely works!
Awesome shot here, Bob, although I have to admit I am utterly tired just thinking of running that distance! Go Bob, Go!!! 🙂
Good luck Bob!
Thats a really good image – nice Pov and great to see everyone checking their watches as they go over the line.
Hope you made a good time and achieved your goal!
Thanks guys! I’m done. A good race.
