21,963 of the world's marathon runners qualified for and finished the 112th Boston Marathon. I sat next to BJ Novak from "The Office" on the plane ride home (really) and he was kind enough to give me a copy of Tuesday's Boston Globe with the list of all the marathon finishers. With an official 3:24:31 I came in at number 5229, and 22 seconds behind Kazuyoshi Takada, age 70.
