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!

| 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!
