- Emma Bates wasn’t shy about saying she wants to put herself into contention for the win at the Boston Marathon on Monday.
“I really want to go out aggressively,” she said at the elite athlete press conference. “I know that I can. In the world championships, I went out really hard and still finished well. That’s the main goal-setting myself up to be up there. I don’t want to lose any contact.”

It might sound like bold talk-Bates ran her personal best of 2:23:18 in finishing seventh at the World Championships last July in Eugene, Oregon. Meanwhile, five women entered in the race have PRs faster than 2:18, and a sixth, Gotytom Gebrselase of Ethiopia, won that World Championships marathon in 2:18:11, more than 5 minutes ahead of Bates. (Sara Hall was the top American that day, finishing fifth in 2:22:10.)
