Boston Marathon weekend scenes

Initially photographed eating yogurt together at the Pre-Race Dinner, Michigan friends Jeff Kobinsky (left), 40, and Rick Stefanovic, 49, jokingly asked to be photographed with beers instead. For Kobinsky, it will be his seventh Boston Marathon. Stefanovic is running his 21st. 'There's no other sport like it,' said Stefanovic. 'You can't play with the professionals in the NFL. But for at least a few minutes, we're running with the elite runners in the world tomorrow.'
