    @BruinsGal_91 Thanks for heading out there to cheer everyone on for us!

    I would have loved to have stayed out there longer, but I was just too cold and wet.

    The woman who ran the BAA 5k before leaping into a taxi to come and run the Jamaica Pond parkrun at the weekend finished in 3:23:35. I think she'll be happy with that.

    I am sure the runners appreciated you being out there at all. Watching the videos is kind of crazy. Last year when I ran it the sun was shining and it was a perfect day for spectators. I can't remember a single place along the course that wasn't lined with spectators. This year there are hardly any :'(

    Awesome job @mobycarp!

    You guys/gals are so encouraging, thank you SO much! The advice all seems right on, too. Definitely better to melt down now and get over it.

    So I was a little late to getting around to trying to find Boston coverage, and finally got something that worked just in time to see Yuki win. He was the one I wanted to win, but I didn't realize he had a chance. The weather was perfect for him though, and his strategy worked! I was also thrilled to see an American woman win, a great follow-up to the New York marathon. I'm basically an emotional mess today. Good thing it's now bedtime in my timezone.

    @MobyCarp awesome job!

    @amymoreorless I like your gym/yoga corner and the cut little floof looking out the window!

    Sorry about your shoe fail. Have you tried Saucony at all? I feel like they have a wide toe box.

    @MobyCarp Way to show us what BEAST MODE looks like. Now I have no excuse why I can’t get out and run a couple of miles every day.
