Can anyone give me a moderately detailed layout of the Boston course in terms of the elevation. I'm looking to figure out how many hills I'm dealing with, when they come, how steep they are, and what the duration of each hill is (both up and down). Perhaps there is a race report that deals with this, an online site that details it, or maybe someone can just lay it out here.

Here's a link to a spreadsheet that contains very detailed information about the course: http://www.box.net/shared/75o3rqgty9

It would be cool to see the Boston mapped out using the Course Tool.
I think there may be enough info in the spreadsheet posted above to do this. I might give it a shot this weekend if nobody beats me to it.

Running without hills is like motorcycling without corners.
