Awesome! My goal is boston 2021.

Congratulations, running Boston is my dream too. Will accomplish in a few years. Thanks for sharing. All best from Mexico City!

I have watched your beautiful video so many times. It fills me with joy and energy to watch your journey and dedication. I watch this video before every race- thank you for sharing your story.

Watching that I became so happy for you! The more I watched the more overjoyed I got! In every single shot of you, you were smiling! You have the biggest smile & I kept thinking, Oh he's so happy!! I'm so happy your dream came true! It was a beautiful video, thank you for sharing your amazing journey with us. So what's next for you? (You've probably already done it since I'm writing this 7 yrs after the fact) Oh! Where did you finish??

Very inspirational and sweet!

Just seeing this video now for the first time. So inspiring!!! Congratulations on fulfilling your dream! I live near Toronto and got back into running in May 2020 after being away from the sport for 11 years. Ran Scotiabank Toronto Marathon in 2009 and wanted to qualify for Boston but missed out by 9 minutes. Now at the age of 51 and after a year of running, I feel like I am a stronger runner now than at 39. I will be running the Calgary Marathon in September and hope to qualify for Boston there. If I actually make to the Boston starting line, I might actually cry.

well done man, that's awesome! I'm also trying to qualify one day, and still have a long road ahead of me (no pun intended)

I was out there. It was my first time back in Boston after 20 years. All I remember was that it rained and they gave out ponchos. I remember lots of skinny, in shape, exhausted and freezing people wearing ponchos and shivering. Lol inspirational, though!

I'm running my first Boston this year in 2017, and I must say that this video really captures the purest essence of every Boston-inspired runner's dedication, passion, and the ultimate dream. Your genuine smile while putting on your jacket says it all. Congratulations and well done, Mr. Carl!! Hope you are coming back to Boston many more times in the future!

Going for my first Boston after waiting a full year. Can’t wait!

I ran my first Boston the same year as you did. Your video brought back wonderful memories of that day and the journey leading up to it. Thank you!

Congratulations for your achievement.... It´s a realy inspirational history!

Beautiful man, thanks for captuturing your journey. Im going back this year Boston. The feeling of getting there never gets old 😀

This is simply amazing! Loved it. Hope to see you at future Boston races....i ran my first this year 2018
