Can you even what happened in Boston yesterday? Michelle, Cath, Smooth, Rachel and their travel companions all safe. So grateful no one of our 'Utah' running family were hurt. Cath's story is in the Daily Herald: http://www.heraldextra.com/news/local/provo-runner-it-was-panic-people-were-running-everywhere/article_13439e6c-1408-5ad4-bde2-6757c3b9611d.html The atrocity, and carnage of those that were in the explosion has been hard to comprehend. I spent the day, well into the night trying to let the horror sink in. I could not believe the level of violence against innocent spectators, children. It's really hard to process that information. It seems surreal. The medical personnel who came prepared to take care of fatigue and dehydration were amazing and heroic. The whole Boston community, PD, the volunteers, even some of the runners-- heroic in their calm in the face of utter chaos. I could not stop looking at the photos and praying. Who could do such a thing? Think if all 4 bombs would have gone off instead of 2? To introduce fear at a marathon finish line feels like sacralige As if someone walked into "our church" and opened fire on our congregation and family. Running is its own kind of religion and our fellow devotees, family. Such a violation of trust. Such a sad day. Boston Marathon, tainted and forever changed. .2's sprints on every mile, plus .2 cool down
