04/05/2007 FIVE HANSONS-BROOKS DISTANCE PROJECT WOMEN WILL DO THE BOSTON MARATHON

They've trained together, supported each other and will now race each other. Who will come out on top?

The Hansons' men, most notably Brian Sell, have performed brilliantly in Boston in the past. "We know that our coaches are going to prepare us well for the course," states Dot McMahan. All five women are running Boston for the first time, and solidarity has been a boon to the group. "You push each other on days you don't necessarily want to be pushed," observes McMahan. "You build a nice team bond, so we all want to see each other do well too."
