Thom Little sent this video of the Boston Marathon course compressed into just over three minutes. The video shows the course as it looks on a regular day, not as it will appear on race day. What that really means is that there are some cars in the picture and there aren t all the screaming Wellesley girls.

NOTE: There s some annoying music in the background, so if you re viewing this at work — or just don t want to be driven insane — you should probably turn off your speakers.
