This year's Boston Marathon closed early leaving a couple of our members unable to participate. However, Cheryl Monroe and Robin Smith did make it! They enjoyed the beautiful weather and excitement that all runners feel about running this presitigious event. Cheryl completed her 5th Boston by finishing with a time of 3:58, while Robin completed her 3rd, finishing with a time of 4:26. (No personal photos available.)
