(WR) Boston Woman Runs Marathon in Hijab

Here's an inspiring story about someone who converted to Islam after last year's marathon bombing, and participated in this year's event. We cannot have too many reminders of the difference between the vast majority of  practicing Muslims and the handful of fanatical bombers. (Likewise, it's important to distinguish between the general run of Christians and a few murderous anti-Semites).
