Title: Boston 2013:
Post by: Scott Hughes on November 22, 2011, 09:02:31 am
It may be out there 18 months but I am now planning for Boston 2013. My BQ is 3:30 for Men 50-54 age group. I just ran a qualifying time in Mesquite of 3:29:31 making it a BQ but without much extra.
Has anyone read or heard anything to help predict if this time will get me in? I know the cut off for 2012 was 1:14 under BQ so with the new qualifying standards for 2013 I am hoping that enough runners will be cut out to still get in....... I will be running one more marathon before registration starts and will try for a BQ-5 but if that doesn't happen...........any thoughts?
