I'm afraid that there won't be any PR's set this year. The weather is not very promising at this point. However, things can change rapidly as they did in 2003. We arrived in Boston on the Saturday before Patriot's day, to 40ish temperatures and snow on the ground. We stayed in New Hampshire in a cabin on a lake which was completely frozen over on Saturday. The temperature on Sunday was still in the 40's. Sunday night they predicted a warming trend. They were right, by noon on Monday in Hopkinton at the start of the race, the temperature was 73 degrees. It decreased as we approached the end in downtown Boston to 59 degrees. The lake in New Hampshire was completely thawed by weeks end. It just goes to show you never know what's gonna happen with the weather.
Whatever the conditions are you guys will never forget it. It'll be fun. Have a great time!
