One issue: if you use chip timing, it's probably very tough to monitor non-elites to see whether they are cutting through alleys or otherwise cheating a la Rosie Ruiz.
I last ran Boston in 2004, so it may have changed. Actually, the elite women may have started early then, too, now that I think about it.
