I'm planning on getting into Boston Saturday around 4PM and picking up my race packet before it closes at 6PM. I figure on stopping back early Sunday to check out the expo a little more leisurely. Does it get very crowded early Sunday?

Can folks recommend interesting/entertaining events or booths at the Boston expo?

Also, will John Bingham or Jeff Galloway be signing books and posters?

Brooks should have a nice booth set up for Brian "Blue Collar" Sell. Might want to check that out.

They didn't do it last year, but Adidas has in the past offered free posters, with everyone's name on it. Fun to look for your name; be sure to grab one. Also the speaker series can be interesting, depending on which elite athletes attend... usually pretty good ones... Grete Waitz a couple of years ago

Brian Sell article. Unreal. He is living and training in Boston. Working 3 p/t blue collar jobs.

Read it.

They had the poster last year. Red on one side. Blue on the other.
