What scares me the most about Boston is how close a few of my friends were to that finish line. They were cheering runners on, like so many of the other thousands of fans. It's hard to fathom... the Boston Marathon is so public and beloved that friends I didn't even think were into running came out to support it. The whole thing feels like an invasion. Like when your home is broken into, something is shattered and a space that was supposed to be safe has been invaded and isn't the same.
