Congratulations to these two Running Blog Family 111th Boston Marathon champs, the incomparable Running Chick With the Orange Hat, and her trusty companion, the unstoppable amazing hip.

According to a story in the April 17 edition of The New York Times,
This was the most dismal day to run the 26.2 miles from Hopkinton east to Boston since the 1970 marathon, which was rain-soaked and colder the entire way. Temperatures Monday hovered in the high 40s, and even as the rain mostly stopped an hour into the race, the headwinds gusted as high as 36 miles an hour, adding resistance that turned many legs to lead.
(Those of us on watching from the sidelines concur with that description!)
Many congratulations, Dianna and jeff!

3. She’s happy because she’s gonna PR the damn Boston Marathon, you old poop.
4. Dianna rocks.
