Warmup

Had to do at least one practice run prior to the half marathon. Well,
Other than the 10 miles on a treadmill a month ago. So, decided to go for a run around Boston to freshen up the legs for next Sunday.

Ran the route shown (9 miles). Figured I had to run up the hill to Harvard and let that stand-in for John Harvard know just what I think about him, his school, and Harvard graduates. They are as fake as the sculpture of their supposed founder.

Then crawled down Cambridge to the science museum and went back up the Charles river esplanade and back to the hotel. Stopped along the way for a pic of a bridge our Duck driver had driven under the previous evening.

Little sore. Even in the heat, Boston is a nice place to run. Harvard and Cambridge street reek of trash, so next time I will stay along the river. My class hatred needs no further stoking.
