2.89 miles
I met up with Tom K. and his family down at Lewis Wharf in Boston. Tom's wife found the coolest place for them all to stay..... a house boat in the harbor! I have to say, Tom is blessed with a great wife and two very personable boys.
We ran along the docks and over a bridge for a total of 24:50. A perfect shake out for Tom before the biggest race of his life! We then proceeded down to the Hynes Convention Center for the Expo and race packet pick up. Along the way we passed the Boston Common & Public Gardens where the buses will take the runners to the start in Hopkinton. Tom was as chill as a dude can be before a huge race..... impressive. I think things started to sink in a bit as we were approaching and continued to cross the actual finish line. Everything was in place and there was an excitement in the air.
Good luck to everyone running tomorrow. I'll be at mile 19 on the runner's right screaming my head off!
