AM - easy 5.5 miles partly on the golf course with Dan and the dogs. Dan had his second dose of the vaccine yesterday and wanted to take it easy.

Registered for the Boston Marathon for October. Have to wait to see if it will be accepted. My age in October will be 55 which moves me to a standard "BQ" qualifying time of 3:35. I submitted my Grandma's marathon effort from 2019 of 3:13. Hopefully that will be sufficiently under the standard for my age-group to get me in. Although I have officially run the race 6 times - I have been trying to run it for the last 3 years since my daughter started law school in Boston and actually lives on Commonwealth Ave - but with a heart issue in 2018, and then all of the disruptions of Covid - the opportunity never came. Now, she will actually graduate this May - before I get the chance to possibly run!

AM - 5 miles on the treadmill- I had met the guys earlier for a run in the rain but a decision was quickly reached after we got out of our cars that the rains were too much and we called an audible and went for coffee instead.
