             (Boston Orange 周菊子波士頓報導)第119屆波士頓馬拉松賽將於今（廿）早從霍普金頓（Hopkinton）的主街出發，九點三十二分女子精英組先出發，十點鐘男子精英組出發，一路穿過至少六個麻州市鎮，跑到柯普利廣場旁的波士頓公共圖書館前，抵達終點，全長26.2英哩，預定下午兩點舉行頒獎禮。

            波士頓馬拉松賽沿途會從霍普金頓主街，穿過的市鎮包括亞許蘭Ashland）, 傅萊明罕（Framingham），納提克（Natick），衛斯理（Wellesley），牛頓市（Newton），布魯克蘭鎮（Brookline），最後到波士頓市的約翰漢考克大樓附近。

            昨日陽光普照，氣候和暖，不過天氣預報指今日轉冷，還會從西往東的下雨，甚至下大雨。氣溫約在華氏五十度出頭，頂多升到六十度出頭。風速約每小時五到十哩，不算太糟，但有可能增大。估計雨勢會從下午四點以後才比較大。

            2007年馬拉松賽那天的氣溫，將和今日相似。

            根據波士頓體育會的資料，今年的三萬二千多名跑者中，約有二百人來自中國，香港，台灣。

            昨日下午，來自中國的略博咨詢公司執行董事田同生應哈佛中國論壇之邀，在該校愛默生大樓，以“中國選手的波士頓馬拉松經驗”為題，分享經驗。

            來自台灣的廿二名波士頓馬拉松賽參賽者，有十三人和駐波士頓台北經濟文化辦事處聯絡上，昨日下午到波士頓馬拉松賽終點站前晤面，晚上再聯袂接受波克萊台灣商會的款待，在新月宮餐廳享用龍蝦大餐，為今日參賽打氣。

            去年已完成馬拉松大滿貫紀錄的田同生昨日透露，他是應波士頓體育會邀請來參賽的。體育會官方人士告訴他，今年國籍為中國的參賽者共104人。其中從中國飛來的有75人。他個人認為以波士頓馬拉松賽有三萬多人參加的數目來說，中國人實在還太少，希望將來能鼓勵更多人參加。

Dr. Tommy Chang announces BPS Transition Team

Dr. Tommy Chang announces BPS Transition Team  Team will establish a 'listen and learn' tour and create a 100-day plan

A message from Incoming Superintendent Dr. Tommy Chang   Dr. Tommy Chang, who will assume the position of Boston Public Schools (BPS) superintendent in July, today announced details of the district's transition team. The team is comprised of 35 people representing a deep understanding of public education in the City of Boston and bringing a wide variety of perspectives from inside and outside the school district. The team will begin meeting later this month.    "I'm eager to bring this diverse group of committed individuals together as we imagine what the future holds for the Boston Public Schools," said Dr. Chang. "We have an ambitious agenda, and I'm confident this group will help establish a strong foundation as we transition to a new chapter for our schools." Among the key initiatives the transition team will immediately focus on is embarking on a 'listen and learn' tour that will ultimately help establish a 100-day entry plan to guide the district during the first semester of the 2015-2016 school year and beyond. In the News Boston Globe: Incoming Boston superintendent Tommy Chang announces transition team Boston Herald: Chang selects 35 for ed transition team   "I am very excited to participate in Dr. Chang's transition team. One of the reasons I was interested in Dr. Chang's candidacy is the systematic approach he takes to adult team building as a cornerstone of successful school improvement," said Hardin Coleman, vice chairperson of the Boston School Committee and dean of the Boston University School of Education. "It is clear that Dr. Chang will work very hard to build effective coalitions across the district and help them to focus on improving the quality of education for all of our students." "I know Dr. Chang is eager to get to know our BPS communities in a deep and meaningful way," said Heshan Berents-Weeramuni, a BPS parent and co-chair of the BPS Citywide Parent Council. "I also look forward to helping parents get to know Dr. Chang more fully through this process." "It's no secret that there are still many challenges facing us, especially when it comes to overcoming achievement and access gaps, but there are also opportunities," said Kim Janey, senior project director at Massachusetts Advocates for Children. "I look forward to working with Dr. Chang and his transition team to address inequities in the system and to help create a path to move us forward." The transition team will meet weekly for eight consecutive weeks beginning April 30. A web page has been created at www.bostonpublicschools.org/transition to track the work of the transition team. An email address has also been established (transition@bostonpublicschools.org) as another way residents of Boston can provide feedback to the transition team. Dr. Chang officially assumes the position of superintendent of the Boston Public Schools on July 1, 2015, having been appointed by the Boston School Committee in March. Dr. Chang succeeds John McDonough who has served as interim superintendent since the retirement of Dr. Carol Johnson in 2013.

波士頓馬拉松賽歷屆冠軍回波士頓與盛

 Morio Shigematsu, 74, is celebrating his 50th anniversary of winning the 1965 race in a then-course record of 2:16:33. Interestingly, less than two months after winning the Boston Marathon he would set a  then-world record of 2:12:00 at the Polytechnic Marathon in England. Shigematsu celebrated his anniversary by competing in the B.A.A. 5K on Saturday.

·         Bill Rodgers, 67, is celebrating his 40th anniversary of winning the 1975 race (2:09:55) and 35th anniversary of 1980 win (2:12:11). Rodgers is one of only four men to win at least four Boston Marathon titles and is the last American winner to repeat as champion, claiming three straight titles from 1978 through 1980.  Rodgers also won four New York City Marathon crowns, was the Grand Marshal at last year’s Boston Marathon, and is a John Hancock Elite Team Ambassador.

·         Geoff Smith, 61, won the 1984 race in 2:10:34 and returned in 1985 to defend his title in 2:14:05. While a senior at Providence College in 1984, he used his Boston Marathon win to qualify for the British Olympic team. Smith is a two-time Olympian for Great Britain who now lives in Massachusetts and is one of the very few athletes who has run a sub-four minute mile and also broken 2:10:00 in the marathon.

·         Lisa Rainsberger, 53, is the last American to win the women’s open division at the Boston Marathon. A native of Michigan, she has also won the Chicago marathon twice.  This year she will be the Boston Marathon’s Elite Women’s Division Official Starter. After running the B.A.A. 5K on Saturday, Rainsberger will run the Boston Marathon on Monday to celebrate the anniversary of her win. Rainsberger won the 1985 race in 2:34:06, and is celebrating her 30th anniversary as champion.

·         Gelindo Bordin, 56, has the distinct honor of being the first man to win both an Olympic gold medal in the marathon and a Boston Marathon title over the course of his career. In 1990 he won the Boston Marathon in a time of 2:08:19. At the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul, South Korea, he claimed the Olympic gold medal in the marathon with a time of 2:10:32. He is the only Boston Marathon champion ever from Italy. Bordin finished the 2014 Boston Marathon in 4:10:37 and plans to run this year’s Boston Marathon.

·         Cheri Blauwet, 34, came to Boston as a medical student at Stanford University, broke free over the Newton Hills, and went on to win the 2004 Boston Marathon crown in 1:39:53. In 2005 she retained her title, winning by over three minutes in 1:47:45. Among her many other accomplishments, she has won medals at the Paralympics, and has traveled the world to promote and enhance disability rights.

Many other Boston Marathon champions, pioneers, and significant figures in race history will also be in town to participate in Boston Marathon weekend in a number of ways.

Joan Samuelson, 57, two-time (1979, 1983) Boston Marathon champion and winner of the inaugural women’s Olympic Marathon in 1984 will run the 2015 Boston Marathon after having won her age division in 2014 (2:52:10). Amby Burfoot, 68, returns to run the Boston Marathon one year after finishing in 4:42:48. Greg Meyer, Lorraine Moller, Sara Mae Berman, Jack Fultz, Roberta (Bobbi) Gibb, Nina Kuscsik, and Uta Pippig are among other Boston Marathon champions who are in Boston for the 119th Boston Marathon.

波士頓清華校友會也特地選在四月十八日舉辦年會暨校慶聚會，順便幫已取得參加馬拉松賽資格的校友們打氣。

             (Boston Orange 周菊子波士頓報導)麻州州長查理貝克（Charlie Baker），波士頓市長馬丁華殊（Martin Walsh)和AT&T移動部門執行長Glenn Lurie等人，昨（十七）日聯袂揭曉AT&T的波士頓馬拉松賽手機盒。該手機盒的收入，將分別捐給波士頓體育會（BAA），紅襪隊基金會，麻州總醫院的“本壘項目”。

            美國大電信服務公司之一的AT&T，於2012年到2014年間，在波士頓一帶投資了四億元，鋪設電信網路。四月初，又在波士頓波約斯頓街（Boylston）699號，離波士頓馬拉松賽終點線僅咫尺之遙處，新開了一家佔地九千平方呎大零售店。

            AT&T移動部門執行長Glenn Lurie表示，為慶祝該公司推出大波士頓的最大一家AT&T零售店面，也為向波士頓馬拉松賽致敬，他們特地推出一款只在該店出售，售罄就絕版的波士頓馬拉松賽手機盒。

            AT&T的公關公司Duffy&Shanley表示，這款手機盒是限量版，售罄就絕版了。但該公司並未透露供銷售的數量到底有多少。

            查理貝克在儀式中指出，對大多數的社區來說，主街或市中心的是否興旺，是人們辨識該地區是否繁榮的根據，AT&T的投資，說明了該公司對波士頓的信心。此外，儘管波士頓市和馬拉松賽都已經國際聞名，但他要強調波士頓馬拉松賽是波士頓這地方的比賽，是大波士頓人都引以為榮的地方。他還感謝AT&T捐出巨款給“波士頓一基金”，也稱許AT&T投資巨款鋪設人們看不見的無線網路，帶動了麻州的經濟成長。

            馬丁華殊表示，AT&T在波士頓的投資，對波士頓的成長，跨向創新經濟很重要，也輝映了波市府在該店對面，整修波士頓公共圖書館的投資，都將使波士頓更將吸引人。這一週將是波士頓非常熱鬧的一週。

            當天出席活動的嘉賓，包括麻州眾議會議長狄樂歐，波士頓經濟長巴洛斯（John Barros），薩福克郡地方檢察官康雷（Dan Conley），波士頓市議員提多傑克遜（Tito Jackson），波士頓馬拉松傳奇人物Bill Rodgers，波士頓體育會執行長Tom Grilk等人。
