I don't have time to give y'all my fantastic and overly wordy recap of my weekend in Boston, but, suffice to say it was a once in a lifetime experience. And one that I hope to repeat again, and again, and again.
I will go back to Boston every single year for Marathon Monday for as long as possible and at any expense. It was that neat.
And one day, one day, I will BQ. I will (::stomps feet for emphasis::).
If y'all have never spectated a big race, I highly suggest you do so (I got to spectate Georgia but that's nothin' compared to this!). It is an exhilarating experience even if you aren't a runner. I think. Maybe. Or is it just us running nerds who get teary when they see the lead truck drive by? Hm.
And, major shout out to Sam of Operation Jack fame who totally killed that 26.2 mile course yesterday and according to him, ran his best race. I'm so proud of him and so proud to be part of his amazing cause and crazy year of running. Sam, we all knew you could do it. You're a rock star runner, you just need to accept that.
Did I mention I'm running a marathon this weekend? Holy crap, it's time for OKC.
Ugh, I see speedwork in my future tonight. Ick.
Boston = love.
I'll be back soon with a whole lot more about Boston, don't you worry.
