Boston Marathon 2010 Results – In case you missed the Boston Marathon 2010 yesterday, we have the top 10 race results for both the men and the women.

The Boston Marathon that took place yesterday was the 114th Boston Marathon. If you’re from Boston, like I am, then you would know that this day is treated like a holiday. Unfortunately, I was working so I didn’t get to enjoy it like most people. Though, I know someone who actually participated in the race and he finished with a pretty good time. Unfortunately, it wasn’t in the top 10 spots. Also, this is the first time that I found out how much money you could winning by finishing in the top 10. It breaks down similar to finishing in the final table in a poker tournament!

Below are the Boston Marathon race results (name, country, time and winnings) for both the men and women:

 Rocks!! and Locals in Boston

The 114th Boston Marathon saw 3 SudburyRocks!! members plus 3 others from the area compete on the famous Hopkinton to Boston course. Rocks!! members were Russell Wood (Timmins), Klaus Ehrhardt (Espanola) and Steve Fessenden (Sudbury). I believe all the Rocks!! have run the event before but it was a new experience for 3 local ladies. Kandis Stoughton (Sudbury), Sharon Hall (Hanmer) and Penny Bois (Espanola) got their initiation into the 'Big Show' when they toed the line Monday morning at 10:30 and started down the first hill out of Hopkinton. A few hours later they had medals around their necks and were bathing in the glory of success.

Congratulations All!

Dear Friends,

I wish to invite you back to the SudburyROCKS!!! Race, Run or Walk for Diabetes, held Sunday May 2, 2010. Come celebrate with us our 5th birthday!

We want 2010 for 2010. Help us meet our goal and raise $75,000 for the Canadian Diabetes Association!

Register online at www.sudburyrocksmarathon.com

The SudburyROCKS!!! Race, Run or Walk for Diabetes has a 5K, 10K, half marathon, full marathon and 1K free kids event. Want to run as a group? Sign up for the Marathon Team Relay with up to 8 of your friends, family and co-workers. Not going to run or walk this year? We welcome new volunteers!

A new change to 2010 is our On The Rocks Pasta. We have moved our Pasta Dinner to a new location, Respect is Burning, where you will enjoy a truly one-of-a-kind experience with rustic Italian soul food. With tickets only $25 each, you will get a fabulous dining experience at one of Sudbury’s best restaurants. While there, enjoy the music of singer/songwriter Angie Nussey. Raised in the Sudbury area, Angie began playing piano and writing songs at the age of 7. Now at 31 years of age, with eight years of creating, releasing, and touring, five full length albums, and a wealth of experiences to draw from, this boldly honest songwriter solidly prepares to release her most prized possession through music: Herself. Look for "Little Tragedies" in stores and online. Tickets can be purchased through either the website, or by emailing Mandy at mandy.hryciw@diabetes.ca. Hurry! Tickets are limited.
