It is that time of year! The clock is quickly ticking down until the first entrants for the Boston Marathon can begin their registration process. It was only a few years ago that the time for the Boston Marathon registration stretched all the way into March. In fact, there was a marathon just before the registration deadline called the Last Chance Marathon to give runners seeking a Boston qualifier one last chance to get into the most heralded of marathons a few weeks before the race occurred! Now, we have the tiered entry system that is graded to the qualifying time within each age group – and this is after they already made the entry times more difficult!
So, you have your Boston qualifying time – what should you be expecting and what is the calendar of entry like for next week?
