I just went to get some coffee and see what Copley was like 3 hours before the first batch of elite runners will cross the finish line. There are already lots of people claiming their spots along the finish lines. There is a huge jumbo tron too! You can see half of me in the far left of the jumbo tron picture.It won't be until 11 or so that the crowds really get going around there. They are still setting up a stage next to the Prudential Center right now. It better not be Ernie & the Automatics playing... my mortal enemy.




EDIT:
some more photos of the women's elite finishing. Too bad Kara Goucher didn't win it for the US. The winner last year DIRE TUNE (best name ever) came in 2nd.
