It goes without saying, Suni Williams will run anything but the typical Boston Marathon aboard the International Space Station on Monday, April 16, 2007. There will be no crowds jostling Williams at the start, just the five other crew members floating around and jokingly throwing elbows in microgravity. There will be no screaming Wellesley coeds creating a deafening corridor between Miles 12 and 13, just preselected movies and music played on nearby computers and possibly a Red Sox game. There will be no Heartbreak Hill, just the constant pain of the harness that tethers Williams to the space treadmill.
