I logged on last week to register for the Boston Marathon and registration is CLOSED! Yes, that's right, closed! I called, emailed, and begged for them to let me in, but no such luck. I was basically told that it was tough luck and to try again for the race in 2011. Don't they know how hard I trained? Don't they realize that this is the second time I've qualified and haven't been able to run? Don't they know that we want to have another baby around that time? Why can't they just let me run!?!
The most frustrating part is that the race closed a week after my race in Indy, so if I had just registered the next day, I would have been able to run. In other words, it's all my fault! I was sick to my stomach for days after finding out, not wanting to accept it. Why, why didn't I log on earlier?
So, I guess there won't be another 26.2 for a while. Hopefully I won't be an old lady by the time I get to run Boston!

OH!!! I'm sorry!!!
That is horrible! If I had trained that hard (never happen) I would be ticked! So so sorry!
I'm sorry, too! I admire your hard work and training. So sorry!
That is a bummer! Well, you can at least know you qualified and maybe there is something else in store for you at the time you would have been running in Boston :)
I'm so sorry! I was sick just reading about it! :( Good luck finding a job and a house! If it makes you feel any better I don't like where we live and we are stuck!! Jason loves his job so at least I now have a happy hubby.
How disappointing! I am sorry that you are so upset. I know this won't help, but maybe there is a reason? If not...be REALLY mad and that's okay!!
I can't believe that. I am SOOOO SORRY! I know how excited you were to run that. I still think you are so amazing that you qualified for it.
Okay, that is so not fair. Do you think if we all called, they would let you in? I think we should try...
Oh how awful! I'm so sorry Katrina. But congrats for even qualifying! I could never do it. Kudos! (You look great by the way!)
Okay so that is RIDICULOUS!!! I am sorry to hear that. Who would think that it would close the day after a qualifier??? I guess you're just going to have to wait until we can go together right???
HA HA! I'm SORRY!
That is just awful...I am sooo sorry! You are pretty impressive for being able to do it though. Sorry again!!!
