Okay.
Last year, at this day (Friday after Boston), I was still in a knee brace, and when I ran, it felt like Mile 26 all over again. Same pace, same turnover, same pains. 1.5 miles out, walked stretched, and then hobbled back to campus.
Today, the Friday after the 110th Boston, I tried it again.
Yes, the quads had cramps. Although today, I ran 5 miles at a 8:00 pace. Very happy with myself.
Also, fulfilling my pact with a first-time marathoner, I shaved my head, as I beat my goal time of 3:45:00, by getting 3:42:23. Think of it as a "Tri-season kickoff"
So yea, thats really it. Nothing with great magnitude or importance.
