Boston Marathon

This blog talks about the Boston Marathon and last years tragedy. As well as a brief description of this years race and who will be running it and the expectations that go along with running this race. Next, it discusses the new regulations on what you're allowed to bring to the race this year based on the events that occurred last April. Also, this goes over the race route this year, based on last years tragedy, they have decided to make a some what different route this year going a different direction but finishing in the same place Boylston Street. Next, considering this event is widely known and is very popular in the sports world, I feel I have gained some important information from this event. This years race will include many more public officials but at the same time trying to keep the same competitive traditional atmosphere without the feeling of being inside a military base. It will be hard to keep an equal running atmosphere and balance security, but I feel that it will be done in the best possible fashion. Finally, the fact that some man was arrested for having a hoax device in a backpack is so disrespectful considering and was so idiotic and honestly ridiculous. Overall, this has made me aware of some of this years race regulations and new rules based on last years tragic events, as well as more security protocol will be involved. Finally, I feel this years race is a huge event for people and those who were affected by last years bombing. Lastly, this race is more than a race to everyone running it, especially for those who could not finish last year. In conclusion, the Boston Marathon this year I feel, will be a success in the eyes of everyone. Boston Strong!
