Race Registration

We walked to the Fens to register for the Boston Half Marathon.

I was super psyched to get a t-shirt with the Unicorn on it. I've always thought it looked so cool on all of the marathon merchandise, and now I'm an actual participant.

I wonder what the results will be. Can't wait til tomorrow!

Beautiful day in the Fens!

I love living in Boston, especially in the fall.

We walked down Huntington Ave on our way home. Northeastern has it's very own wiffle ball field!

This truck tried to make a left onto Huntington and it was an epic failure. Not sure how long the road will be blocked. This is why driving in Boston sucks!

Jared made his sandwich special: turkey sandwich on wheat bread with cheese and pickles, apple slices, and Wheat Thins. I started watching the BC/VA Tech football game at the beginning of the 3rd Quarter. BC was down 34-0. Yikes!

I'm estimating we walked a total of 5 miles from the South End to the Fens and back. Our walk included a quick stop at City Sports so I could get my own foam roller. I thought Miles would be exhausted cuz he has such little legs, but I'm pretty tired too. After I was done with lunch, I used the foam roller for 5 minutes. Now I'm ready to relax for 30 minutes.

We're hosting brunch after the race tomorrow so I really need to clean and vacuum the apartment!

  1. If only there were sparkles on the unicorn...

    Isn't the foam roller a workout itself? I'm always tired after using it.

    Good luck in the race!
