Streak to the beach - Day 15
Time : 30:00 Minutes
Distance : 3.3 Miles
This Week: 3.30 Miles
Total: 46.88
Today was a good day, I got to watch the streaming of the Boston marathon on Sportsnet.ca/sportsnet-live and follow the tweets on @canadianrunning. It was exciting to watch Canadian Robin Watson streak to the lead and hold it for a while mid race, and not surprising when the Ethiopians ran him down in the Newton hills. Still an 11 place finish is remarkable.
I had hoped to do a treadmill run while watching coverage on TV. It would almost be like being there except I would be able to run with the elite athletes. Alas no coverage on our cable channels.
I went to work after the men finished an was amazed to watch the coverage when the marathon turned into a terrorthon. And when I finally made my way to the treadmill for the run I was watching coverage of the senseless madness that the marathon became. It is beyond comprehension how someone can take out their grievances on innocent spectators. Nuff said.
Plod On.
