How to Watch Amanda and Courtney Run the Marathon
We started our blog with a video, one that helped to secure our spots on the 2010 DFMC team. We thought we'd post another now that we're so close (!) to the BIG DAY. Watch our quick video for some helpful and hilarious hints on how to be a spectator on Marathon Monday.
We mention a lot of resources in the video; links are below.
BAA SPECTATOR GUIDEGives you the schedule for the weekend, as well as how to get around on Marathon Monday with road closures and T service. It also gives you a map of the course and estimated times for the elite men and women (we'll be RIGHT behind them....haha)
WHEN WILL WE GET TO YOU?
Use boston.com's interactive tool to get a rough idea of when we'll pass you along the route. Use 4h20mins for our expected finish time; we start at 10:30am but may be a little slow leaving Hopkinton because of the crowds.
TEXT ALERTS
Sign up asap for text alerts - AT&T will send you a text message when your chosen runner passes the 10k, 30k, half marathon, and finish line.
Amanda's bib #: 22498
Courtney's bib #: 22744
RACE DAY ON YOUR PDAIf you want more frequent, and less delayed updates, go to www.baa.org on race day and use the athlete tracker (by bib # or last name) to get updates. Just hit refresh, you can track as many as 5 runners at a time (assuming it's the same as last year).
WHERE TO FIND US AFTER WE FINISH
At the DFMC 2010 Recovery Zone of course! Join us at the Marriott Copley Plaza to celebrate our achievement!
