3 Sisu Project members qualified and ran the 115th edition of the Boston Marathon.
How they got there
Thomas Szumita: an 8-time Boston Marathoner, he ran the 2010 edition of the race in a course best time of 2:55:21.
Stevin Bartholomew: Steve had run the Vermont City Marathon in 2008 for fun, but he went back there for the real deal in 2010 and qualified for Boston with a time of 2:55:56.
John Rheaume: With a childhood dream of someday running Boston, it finally happened with a 3:07:49 at the 2009 Philly. He improved his Boston seeding with a 2:56:39 in 2010.
How They Did
Tom improved his course best with a fantastic 2:53:08, running a very smart race. Steve, who had injury concerns and trained minimally after recovery, was happy by running 3:00:29. John had a rough day, but finished in 3:19:20 despite needing a few walk breaks late in the race.
Congratulations to our 2011 Boston Marathon finishers!
