    I was in Boston to watch this marathon, standing a half mile from the finish. It was too hot for you runners. The 60-year-old man on the RUclips channel "Old Man Van Running" had trained for a 3:39 - and he ended up with a 4:03 because of the heat. I think this happened to a lot of runners. "Old Man Van Running" did a 3:48 in the last New York City Marathon, so a 3:39 in Boston might have been realistic if it weren't for the heat. I hope you still enjoyed it, however, in spite of the heat.

    • @latebloomerrunner
      @latebloomerrunner  8 месяцев назад +1

      I recently subscribed to Old Man Van’s RUclips channel. I’ve watched several other videos from other RUclips channels and it seems that the majority of folks had a similar experience in Boston. It didn’t go as expected. But it was definitely a great experience! Glad you were able to be there! Have you run it previously?

    I really enjoyed your video -- but - but - but - I do feel that you should have respected the BAA's request that runners not film the race. If their insurance and their traditions don't want it, you should respect that.
