Marathon Monday!
Please send some good vibes and cool thoughts to all those running in the Boston Marathon today, in a record breaking heat of 80+ degrees on the course. At John's start time of 10:40 it will probably already be in the high 70s.
I will be joining him at mile 20 and finishing the run with him. Race executives have warned runners of the heat and told runners that this should not be considered a RACE, but rather an EXPERIENCE! John is all in on that philosophy, he just wants to finish in time - and due to the heat they have given an extra hour to finish. I love responsible race directors!
Anyway, wish us luck!
