In the media circles I follow, there is a general buzz about Bill Rodgers running Boston this Monday. Bill is a great guy and one of my true heroes. He will talk and have a beer with you, as you can see by the photo above from the 2003 Boilermaker 15K. I make an almost annual trip to the Boilermaker 15K with people from my running club . At that venue, Bill is always approachable and will talk with you about anything as if he has done a hundred miles of running with you. He gave tons of advice about how to run the course to one of my friends last year. Here is a cool video of his 1979 win at Boston. Gotta love the hat!
