Boston Marathon

Watching the news about the bombing of the Boston Marathon. What a completely senseless act. I heard an Irish runner who had competed being interviewed on the radio saying how heartless it was to attack runners at the end of this event who had no fuel to get themselves away.

A shocking cowardly act which threatened the safety of people of all ages and nationalities but also threatens the feeling of security of the American people, as they went about their Patriots Day Celebrations, and as they pick up the pieces and start a new day today.

So very sad.
