Back from Boston...

Well after a very successful return to the Boston Marathon, we are now home.  Lori had a fantastic run in near ideal weather, it was a little warm for us west-coasters but still a great day.  The people of Boston really pulled together to support the run and the runners; Lori crossed the famed finish line and now has an official finishers medal and more importantly an official finishing time.

Next stop is Vancouver where I will run the Vancouver Marathon, here's hoping I do as well as Lori did.  This will be my first marathon since my treatments started and I am not sure what to expect.

A quick report

Well the weather has changed, the mornings are brighter and the days are a little longer; it must be spring.  I am doing well, aside from the pollen and my training for the Vancouver marathon next month is going well.  Lori is all set for her marathon in Boston she has trained well for this one and should have a wonderful run!  We are all set for the trip and have arranged for some friends to house sit for us (thanks M&G).

I will send you an update from Boston and if you feel so inclined you can use the track a runner portion of www.baa.org to keep an eye on Lori's race April 21st, her bib number is 24756.
