Boston 2009!


It was a smaller Gunks contingent than last year at the fabled Boston Marathon, but the group's size did not diminish the quality of the performances. One in particular stood out. Kevin Roach, coming off a fantastic 2:57 at New York, set his sights on a PR--and got one, running a brilliant (and palindromic) 2:55:52, a nearly two-minute PR and good for an amazing 58th place in the ultra-competitive 40-49 age group.

Other great performances were turned in by Gunkers Muark Mulpeter (3:15), Rosibel Landau (3:42), and Mary Denitto (an amazing 3:52 at 61 years old!).
