A COPD Patient's goal - to Conquer the Boston Marathon for a second year
Last year, Mike McBride wrote about his quest to be the first COPD patient to not only enter but also complete the prestigious Boston Marathon. You can see the article, pictures and information about the race at: http://www.copd-international.com/Library/Boston.htm
This year he will be accompanied by Elizabeth Shepard who will act as a guide for Mike and his good friend "Breathin Stephen. Stephen has extremely advanced asthma. Mike and Stephen finished the Marathon together last year.
This year, Mike has arranged for Liz to call me every 30 minutes or so - to give me an update right from the race course itself. I will be posting that information as I receive it here on COPD-International's message board and The COPD International facebook page.
The race is monday - 4/19
