Awful happening. I have heard from several people from the RRTC and they are ok, but my thoughts are out for the injured. I'm so sorry to hear of the deaths and wish their families well.

Seconds after the first explosion, Justin Kuo calmly walks to aid 78-year old Bill Iffrig, who was knocked off his feet by the blast (video link): Justin Kuo At The Blast Site. Justin appears at 33 seconds into the video.
As we were watching that, I told my wife I thought that was Justin.
Sorry for the people who were injured and killed. Glad our people were okay, and able to provide assistance.

I always look forward to seeing Justin when I go to Boston for the marathon, but I was never so happy to see him as when he walked into the press room about an hour after the explosions. I was in lockdown inside along with all the other journalists, but I knew he and other race officials were probably right at the blast site. It was a stressful day for all of us, for sure.
