T Minus Twenty
The heavily pollinated, warming air tells me that spring has arrived. Time for baseball, taxes, and the Boston Marathon. I can hardly believe I’m at Hopkinton’s doorstep. If I don’t mark the moment, it will fly by before I can savor it fully. With that in mind, I’ll make a pledge. I will post an article everyday from now until Boston.
Seriously.
I know that sounds like an empty promise when cast on April Fool’s day, but I’m throwing caution to the wind. I’m sure you’ll hold me to my word. Friends, qualifiers, hopeful qualifiers, celebrity posers; join me in welcoming Boston with a flurry of creative output.
Yeah, this post counts.

Promises promises. We’ve been waiting for that Blue Ridge race report for months now.
But this will be a cool way to get psyched up for the big race. Maybe even look into some of the history and tradition associated with Bahstan.

Your patience will be rewarded, Boss man.

I’ve been working Pfitizinger’s TWENTY FOUR week, SEVENTY MILES per week plan – and passed the point of burn-out about 8 weeks ago…
To finally be less than three weeks to go feels just awesome to me!
Looking forward to your blog frenzy – and having dinner in Boston with you and your wife.

Yeah Kestrou, I’ll contact you and we’ll meet. You’re going to crush Boston this year.
Happy, tapering!
