Next day I returned to Canada with NB and PEI runners from Holiday Inn, shopping in Freeport, spend night in Moncton and finally home.
Thanks to Dave Perry for the finish line photo, all runners, facebook friends and Boston Athletic Association for support me and coverage the 119th Boston Marathon!

Hey Alex!
Congratulations to you and all the Islanders. Three hours and thirty minutes - what a feat!
You didn't kiss and high-5 the Wellesley girls through the tunnel?
And the after-Marathon stuff - great bonding involved.
Did you have chicken fingers?
Monckton - great place.
Wonderful pictures and a great run, Alex! I wish the weather here in Boston on race day had been a little less wet and windy though. (But it looks like you survived the weather and the noisy Wellesley College student gauntlet with flying colors :-).) I hope you'll be back to run the Boston Marathon in future years!
Alex, the Boston Marathon! Congratulations on not only completing it, but a good showing too.
