Total Distance
16.00

Slept in some this morning and headed out at 8 am and very nice weather this morning, Ran the same course as last week only two miles shorter.  Work on good form on the up hills and a good mid-foot placement, much better then three weeks ago and seams to become habit now.  Got around 5 or 6 miles out and the wind picked up and was a tail wind and I was well aware I was going to have to work at keeping a good pace on the way back, managed but had to work at it more.  Got it done though, now offically on taper!

Thanks allie, and thanks for the great encouragement you have given Mauri and I over the year, we are so excited to run Boston.

Great run, enjoy the taper the next two weeks and stay sane. How about a Boston prep get together on Friday? Curt and Alana will host.
