A slow run today. After a weekend of replacing screens on the house my quads were very sore (lots of squatting). Today was miserable conditions -- 85 F, 25 MPH sustained winds, 80% humidity...arrrg. Still go in 4 miles w/ Darin at lunch.

 AP: 8:30

Got my room confirmation from Marathon Tours for Boston 2011. Raddison Boston. Woohoo!

Your run sounds about as miserable as my ride yesterday - only in the exact opposite way!

Good job getting it done with sore quads

I got mine yesterday too. I almost forgot.

Finally some easy miles out of you. Way to go.

Your quads-a-hurting-easy-pace is my LT pace!

I got my Radisson confirmation on Sat. :)

If I go, I'll just sleep in a car.

dang you guys plan ahead - I still don't know what I'm doing for vacation this summer, let along boston 2011...

From MarcE on Tue, May 11, 2010 at 22:28:55 from 204.16.82.120

RP - sleeping in a car is over-rated! You can sleep on my floor, if you need to.

From MarcE on Tue, May 11, 2010 at 22:29:39 from 204.16.82.120

...same for you Tim (I'm sure my wife won't mind sharing our room with a few other guys)

From timp on Tue, May 11, 2010 at 23:56:50 from 68.165.8.15

Thanks MarcE - you never know.
