Milestones

Tuesday marked exactly 3 months to the 2010 Boston Marathon. Oh boy. . .

At least I've run half the total distance of the marathon in training already. Fifteen miles on slate for this weekend. I hope Janel makes it so I have a training buddy. I've been the caboose of the Crossroads runs so it'll be nice to have company again. This week's run is at the Longfellow Club in Wayland. Laury Hammel, co-owner of Longfellow is part owner of The Adirondack Club where Dave was Fitness Director prior to starting his PhD Program. I'm sure he has no idea who I am, but kind of cool to have a connection to the venue. It'll be a new course for our team runs this year so I'm hoping the lack of familiarity will help the miles click by.

Today I was greeted by a great surprise in the mail . . .6 donations! Those combined with my 1 online donation since my last post brings my fundraising total to date to $2600. Anybody want to sponsor me $20 or more to push me over $100 per mile? Many thanks to James W. Flett Company, J&M Brown, Bay State Building Specialties, Construction Material Service, Inc., Mary Crowell, and Robert Gilligan!!!
