future here, do you imagine these events looking different in the future as we try to balance safety and freedom, and the kind of joy these events are associated with for you we're thinking about that now and in the fall, we had hurricane sandy canceling the new york city marathon at the last moment. it is weighing heavily on our minds now. there are going to be people, let's face it, great runners, who are going to decide not the spend 3 or $4,000 across the country to a big marathon where they might feel threatened, but i've talked to a lot of runners in the last 24 hours and i would say 99% of them, including myself, are more resolved to come back to boston to run it next year than we have been before because we want to reclaim the city and the streets and we want to thank the city and its supporters and rooters
