It is quite an accomplishment just to be there and i'm afraid if you don't get it you will regret it. Every time I am faced with a decision of buying something special like that I look at it this way: Will I ever look back and say "I wish I would have bought that race jacket" probably YES. Will I ever look back and say "I really wish I had the $110 back" Never! There will always be another $100 coming around. There may never be another chance to get the jacket!

The jacket would definitely be a frivolous expense, but I can wing it. :) I can see why you were confused- all the Boston specials where this past week because last year it was on April 15th. This year it's on the 21st. It's always on the 3rd Monday in April, I believe. I actually got a lot of "good luck" texts this past Monday haha!Meg Go Runhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11707890742715926971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6003023702428993428.post-82979840929183486422014-04-17T10:56:36.933-04:002014-04-17T10:56:36.933-04:00Augh I think I need it too!

I just made me feel full and lethargic. OK I feel so silly asking this, but I thought the BM was this past week? Or was that just the one year anniversary of the bombing? I haven't been watching the news. I think you should buy the jacket if it will bring you really fond memories, you'll actually wear it, and it's in your budget<that last part I had to add because, well you know I'm a PF blogger. LOL! For the half marathon I ran, all I carried was pain...I mean Gu. :) Oh and kleenex and lip balm.
