Yay Wakanomori!

Let's give a big round of applause to Wakanomori!! He just finished the Boston Marathon! Official time, 3:22:03, average pace, 7:43.


Go, Waka, Go!

I didn't even notice that, but now that you mention it, yes, I guess in American English we'd say "it was a great time." I thought it was good too! But he had been hoping for a faster pace.

So your son runs marathons too? Cool! How many has he run?

I think around six..five in India and the NY marathon a year or two back...plus several half marathons including one in Reading near London last month..he talks about 'times', so I have some idea :-)

also that wakanamori could speed up towards the end..that really sounds great!

That's a lot of marathons and half-marathons! We need to get your son and my husband together one day!
