My boyfriend is running the marathon today. I signed up to receive text messages of his “split times” (meaning his minutes per mile broken down per 5K) so that I could track where he is, and how he’s doing, but the system seems to have broken down somewhere. I’m only receiving about every third notification so far only 2 out of 7 that should have been delivered. Thankfully I can track it online, in a slightly different form. It’s pretty frustrating though. 38,000 people are running this race and how many family members are there out there trying to keep track of their loved ones? Bad form ING, bad form.

He’s doing really well BTW, keeping pace at roughly 9:00 miles. Just what he wanted to accomplish.
