| I have run 320 miles on the year so far, which includes today's 7 miler. We have been getting pounded with snow this month and it was my first run off the mill in a couple of days. It was a glorious lunch time run. 29 degrees, blue sky, and barely any wind.

Out on the road at 3:45am. I have a lunch meeting today and my youngest has a student led parent conference that my wife and I will be attending at 5:15pm. So the ridiculously early time was my only option. I want to fall asleep as I type this right now.

| I was a wimp today and did a 4 miler on the treadmill instead of outside. I just didn't feel like dealing with the 16 mph winds and 24 degree temps. I'm looking forward to the Spring.

I'm planning on running Stu's 30K on March 5th with my co-worker Jim. We figured why not get 18 miles on our legs during an extended lunch. Besides our feeling fatigued within the first couple of miles, we ended up with a 7:45 avg over 700+ feet of gain. I'll take it.

Decent wind in Devens MA today. Blue sky and sun was shining.... no complaints from me.
Just as I was heading back in from my run, Daniel from our Network Support group was heading out for his. I quickly packed up a snowball and launched a high arching lob. It hit the sidewalk about 3 feet ahead of him.... just missed :) 7:02 avg. for the jaunt

Yesterday I had the day off and my wife and I watched our girls race on the Indoor track. Maggie is 13 yrs old and Paige is 11 yrs old.
We had a great time at the Reggie Lewis Arena yesterday, but it was a rust buster for both girls as they haven’t been doing much this winter. It was their first time racing on a track and they both have a bit to learn.
Paige was first to race the mile. (She was super nervous and had to use the facilities a couple of times prior to the gun) They didn’t have enough girls for each age group, so they ended up putting the 10 entrants in one race. The leaders went out hard and Paige went with them for the first lap. I had to tell her to tuck in to the first lane on her second lap, as she was running in lane 3 and working too hard. From there, she started to noticeably slow. Her fitness just wasn’t where it needed to be for a fast mile race. I’m really proud of her for finishing and not dropping out. The 10th girl dropped out.
Next up was Maggie’s 400M race. Maggie wasn’t as nervous, but I didn’t know what to expect since she has no track experience. She ended up running in fourth for the majority of the race. Coming off of the last turn and onto the straight, she kicked it home for a nice 3rd place finish. (section 3)
Both girls ran the 200. Paige had more rest between the mile and 200 and Maggie ran the 200 fairly quickly after her first race. That being said, Paige had a bit of redemption after her mile. This time Paige had the better race and Maggie seemed to struggle. All in all, it was a great day. (section 3 & 5)

2:10:44 - My watch indicated that I ran 18.72 miles and gave me an overall pace of 6:58 which I was happy with. The timing mats gave me an average pace of 7:00.... a little bit of a bummer because the sub 7 pace looks so much cooler. Super windy and cold, but very fun.

My lungs still aren't where they were pre-sickness and I am feeling a bit weak. At the start of the steepest climb of this run, I had a wicked coughing fit and my lungs sounded like a baby rattle for the rest of the run. On a good note, the weather was beautiful. On a bad note, we are expected to get 12+ inches of snow in the next couple of days. Suck it mother nature....

Pre-Boston spectating miles with the fastest guy in my running club. Not the smartest idea to run 9 miles with a 2:33 marathoner right before cheering on the runners.
Highlight of my day was fist bumping Rhett..... probably one of the coolest dudes ever!

It is amazing how you can feel great running one day and then feel awful the next. Sometimes you get really lucky and get those feelings all in one run :)

First mile alone, running to meet Kris. Next 12 with Kris, and then last 7 Han Solo.
Kris is coming back from injury/sickness and is not his normal self yet. Although we weren't running slow for the first 13, I believe the scaled back pace helped me push for the last six or so miles. I'm happy with this long run.

What a great day! My family and I drove to Maine from Mass on Saturday afternoon. It was a long drive and by the time we entered Kingfield ME, we only had about an hour to spare to get to the Sugarloaf Resort for bib pick up. After a few pictures, we headed back to Kingfield and ate dinner at Longfellow’s restaurant…. Thanks Tom K, the food was excellent. We were losing light by the time dinner ended and decided to check out our accommodations. After a short drive we were at the Baker Hill Bunker. This lodge looked decent in the pictures on the AirB&B site, but once we walked through the front door, I knew there would be issues. The place was filthy and my wife is a clean freak. I walked up to the loft with a flashlight hoping that the beds were at least clean….. far from it. Luckily, we brought some fleece blankets for the car ride and draped them over the beds. We also had full winter pajamas with us since we were in the backwoods of Maine. If we had gloves and winter hats, you better believe Amy would have us wearing them as well. After about 3 hours of sleep it was time to get some coffee and food in me while getting prepared. After a pack of oatmeal, banana and clif bar, it was time to head out. Luckily, since we had our car, I was able to drive to the start of the race at The Cathedral of the Pines campground in Eustis ME. My family wished me luck and told me they would see me at the resort access road. It was about 45 degrees…. Perfect. With a 12 gauge blast, the race was off! I met up with Jim my co-worker and we ran for a mile together. We separated after the mile as we had different plans of attack. The first 10 miles I wanted to stay around a 7 minute pace with the exception on the two mile climb from 8-10. I remembered what everyone said about holding back on the first steep descent, and I did just that. For the rest of the miles with the exception of a 7:07 for mile 21, I was under 7 min pace. I really stayed on top of my electrolyte levels with lemon lime salt chewable tabs and Nuun hydration drink which my wife handed off at the halfway point. I nursed this drink from 13 to about 23. I never even got the slightest hint of a hamstring cramp! I was definitely tiring in the last 10k, but never hit the wall! It was an amazing day! All the the love and thanks to my family for the undying support…. I couldn’t do it without you! Splits as follows:
