Couldn't Have Said It Better Myself

In case you're unaware, Monday's forecast for the Boston Marathon is atrocious. Temperatures are predicted to be in the 30s, with very heavy rain and a 30 mph headwind. (Note that this forecast is actually an improvement from earlier in the week!)

So the BAA sent out an e-mail advising entrants about this weather and the possible hazards of hypothermia associated with it. One punter over at Let's Run posted the following observation:

"[the e-mail warns that hypthermia] will result in muscular fatigue, poor coordination, numbness and disorientation"

Isn't that just about what every marathoner experiences after 20 miles?
