Ran 3 days in a row last week, and wanted to get work done during the day and at night, so took off day. It was so nice out today though. The sun, temp, wind all perfect. Would have been a nice day to be at practice. Gonna hook up with CKells this week and fit in some runs in the rain most likely.
Pretty shaken up by the Boston Marathon Bombing. I was pretty excited for the race today to hear peoples times. Robert ran a great race, and to hear this news it makes everything different. What the hell is going on?? There is gonna be a big fallout from this... It just hurts me to think that someone would try to hurt a runner. Running is always a place to go to feel comfortable and safe. That cannot and should not ever be taken away. As a member of this sport, you gotta feel for the victims.
Shit like this is going to bring people together to figure out what happened. Especially on Patriots Day. Obama is already on it. If he caught Bin Laden hes going to find out who did this. This can put stuff in perspective. How many people got blown up at the Baghdad Marathon? Shit it doesnt have to be a marathon day or a big event. Civilians are victims of massive attacks every day in other countries. Its scary to see it happen here, because it isnt common, but we need to realize this is a reality in many other countries, and that aint right.
Everyone in Boston, stay safe.
