re: Update: Second Boston Marathon Suspect Captured

I've always loved running Boston because the noise from the crowd really motivates you. Now I wonder what they'll do. I hope we don't lose the bands at mile 6, the Wellesley girls (ESPECIALLY the Wellesley girls), the BC and BU beer chuggers, and the people at the finish line. Their hoots and hollers really carry you through.
I also used to live 5 blocks from the finish line and passed the blast site on my way to work every day. :-(
Hopefully people make it through as best as possible and the marathon world can continue to be as close as possible to the way it was.

On the note related to the idea that they deal with the perpetrators, I think they also need to do something about the culture that "incubates" these terrorists; this applies independent of if they are foreign or domestic.
