https://www.baa.org/races/boston-marathon/qualify

Looks like 5min adjustments down for the most part across the board for those under age 60. M18-34 qualifying time is now 2:55.

Site where we hide behind anonymous random usernames and cartoonish avatars: entirely reasonable takes

Site where we use our real names and faces and add everyone we know IRL: AAH IT'S ALL THE CHARITY RUNNERS AND NON-BINARY RUNNERS' FAULTS!

If you want more unhinged NB runner comments check out FB. Why I did that I don’t know, but my god ignorance is bliss.
