How fast will I run the Boston Marathon?

Crossroads! (9.18mi + 1.25mi)

Hey, time for another crossroads run, and guess again what the temperature might be?! I swear, somebody can go back and check, but legit for the past 7-8 weeks in a row now, Thursday night has been the coldest night of each week. This weeks run was no different of course, again, dipping down well into the single digits with the wind chill factor considered. The run went off pretty much without a hitch tho, and it was the first time in a long time that Fred, Katie, and myself were all there for the run. We again opted to detour slightly from the normal route of sticking to the marathon course, and instead continue straight down Commonwealth ave as we came by Chestnut Hill ave (this would take us down into Cleveland circle), so that we could swing by my apartment/car and I could pick up my backpack to run with for the last 2.5miles or so, so that I could have some dry clothes to change into when we arrived at Crossroads. While annoying to have to run with the backpack, it's definitely very worth while and much appreciated/needed once we've gotten to the bar. I felt pretty good throughout the run, with no real issues to make note of.
