It’s the world’s oldest annual marathon.   Several runners in the ArkLaTex qualified this year for The Boston Marathon.    Joe Haynes (KTBS 3 Meteorologist) and Suzie Talley (former Shreveporter, commenter on this site, my sister) are among them.

The race begins Monday morning and you can track Joe and Suzie every 5K (3.1 miles via satellite chips on their ankles).  Here’s how:

Log in and enter their names or bib numbers.  The face of the Boston Marathon web site will change on race day (Monday) and the process on how to enter the search will be clear.

Joe is in Wave 1.  Start time: 10:00 a.m. EST–Enter either “Joesph Haynes” or bib # 4002
Suzie is in Wave 2.  Start time: 10:30 a.m.  EST–Enter either “Suzie Talley Moore” or bib # 15834

This is a tough 26.2 mile race!  How cool it’ll be for Joe and Suzie to read your words of encouragement.

During the race, HRB, CT and I will also jump in with comments under this post as we track Joe and Suzie live.  Join us!  It’s sort of like being there to cheer them on.   See you here for the race Monday morning.
