Forget the space walk, try a space run

Suni Williams, one of NASA’s many astronauts not charged with attempted kidnapping, will compete in next month’s Boston Marathon, even though she’ll be aboard a space station 210 miles above Earth. She’ll run the 26.2 miles on a treadmill, presumably in less bulky clothing than shown here. No word yet on which of the race’s 18 official sponsors will attempt sign her up. I vote for PowerBar—its name has that Jetsons retro-future ring to it.
