Beautiful day today.  Temp was around 60 and windy.  I felt good today and just ran along by feel.  Normally don't run on Sunday but since I missed yesterday I wanted to get in a few miles today.

Nice morning today.  Temp around 50 with some light wind. Felt good today.  Started off easy and gradually picked it up as I went along.  This is my longest run in awhile.  Felt good to get in a longer run.

Very sad this morning as I was thinking of the tragedy at the Boston Marathon.  As many of you know this is such a special event and I remember the special feeling of running toward the finish line with all of the spectators cheering.  It is so sad that many of those there cheering for their friends and loved ones were killed or seriously injured.  I pray that everyone on this blog and their loved ones are safe and for all those affected by this tragedy.

Nice morning today (63) but pretty windy.  Wasn't able to run yesterday because my wife had some early medical test and then got back and was crazy with work.  I felt good today and no run yesterday.  Just ran by feel and seemed to pick it up as I went along.

Cool and super windy out this morning. Didn't feel like fighting the wind so just ran on the TM. It was a short day anyway and just took it easy.  Watched all of the news about the Boston Marathon.  Still can't believe it.
