Progress report: Omaha to Boston runners (Dedicate your actual miles to the victims)

As of 5 p.m. Saturday, we've made it to Boston ... with 110 miles to spare! A special thanks to all 214 runners who've participated thus far, especially the Millard North High School girls' track team, whose 248 miles landed us in Beantown.
Boston is 1,436 miles from Omaha.
Running that far alone would be tough. Together, it's easy.
Let's run to show Bostonians and the world that we will live our lives, we will gather, we will party, we will celebrate, we will mourn, we will run. Without fear. Together.
FULL story, form to submit, and updates at link. Newest report at the bottom of the page.
