Lehmkuhle to Run Boston

Team USA Minnesota' Jason Lehmkuhle will compete in this year's Boston Marathon. The event, scheduled for April 20, finalized the make-up of its elite fields yesterday.

Lehmkuhle (pictured), who finished 5th at the U.S. Olympic Trials Marathon in 2007 in a PR 2:12:54, was 8th at the New York City Marathon last fall in his last outing at the distance.

The Drake University grad ran Boston in 2006 but had a bad outing, finishing 94th.
