Steve had a nice finish, ran within himself, and should be none the worse, having a speedy recovery. However, Steve should take note that Boston is a down hill course. You start in Hopkinton, 750 feet above sea level and run to sea level. Bill Rodgers excelled on this course because his foot strike and leg bone design is perfect for downhill. He killed that course.   Working the same day as the race was no biggie. Like I mentioned to Steve, all marathoners are aware that the second day after the race is the most painful with regards to muscle.</blockquote>
