Controversy enveloped this year's Boston Marathon (http://mashable.com/category/boston-marathon/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_medium=feed&utm_source=rss) — the first since last year's deadly bomb attack — when it was discovered that some runners had participated while wearing fake bibs
Wearing a fake bib to run in a race others paid for, trained for, and had to run faster than a given time to enter in the first place might be difficult to explain at the best of times. But it's even harder to justify in a race with extreme symbolic and emotional resonance a grieving city and nation. (For the uninitiated, a bib is what you receive when you register for a race; it's basically your ticket.)
