Felt good all week. Did not plan to run last mile of long run at MP, but the final mile had a long downhill and uphill and wanted to see if I could gauge the effort on the hills, as that seems to be critical to Boston.
One more week of easy running, then I begin my 17 week build up to Boston on 12/24.

During my week in Aruba, I went for a run and actually got an enthusiastic honk and wave from a passerby on car. I can only assume he was a fellow runner.
