After being gone a week, I'm making up for my absence with back-to-back posts.

Today was my last pre-Boston long run: about 17 miles with lots of hills. Weather was perfect (about 60 F and clear), and it was the fastest I've done that route. Now, if the Bostonians can pull some weather strings, I have a real shot at a marathon PR. I'm hoping for 3:19:xx.

Regardless, I have my first Fenway visit the day after the race: BoSox vs. L.A. Angels. Er, I mean the "Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim" (has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?).
