How about, a Boston marathon T.V. reality show. Pick elegable contestants to run in the the B.M for 2006. Follow them as they go through a couse of training. Only from the best trainers. Maybe some U.S Gold Metalists???? I would love to run in the B.M. How else would a nobody like me get started????(training)?????

Where do you find reasonable hotel rooms. Those on the web site are all $200 per night.

You have to qualify for the Boston Marathon. Contact your local running/track club for details or get on any running website.

Don't forget Hill running as part of your training.

Neil Campbell on December 11, 2007 02:56 AM.

Hill work's a really good idea. I only did a 10K the other day and all I could hear was people moaning about a tiny little incline. I live in a valley so they weren't a problem for me.
