"YESSSSSSSSSS, I WILL be there in 2014." My friend Gene, who would've finished his 50th marathon in Boston. "Really, really pumped."

Anyway, I will be back to the start and the finish lines of the Boston Marathon this summer to cancel the feeling that I'm feeling fuzzy in.

(cont'd) I really wanna run again the Boston Marathon soon to console the victims.
