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.4 -

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!1 -
Hi all! New to this group but love to join this challenge. I'm actually just starting to taper for my first half marathon so mileage for this month will be around 80 miles.8

Quick drive-by report on the Boston Marathon:
The temperature was good. The wind was not a problem. The water in the air caused me (and many others) serious problems. I was undertrained, which couldn't be helped, but I think I managed the race pretty well for my conditioning.
It was a brutal day for volunteers and spectators, not so bad while running, serious risk of hypothermia when you stop running. Along about Heartbreak Hill, I realized if I stopped running I probably wouldn't start again; so I made myself run the whole thing, except for a port-a-pot break at about 12.4 miles.
Didn't get the goodie bag. Post-finish priorities were medal, heat shield, and get back to the hotel for a hot shower.29 -
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!2 -
@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.2 -
@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.1
