The fact that you think the athletes in this new group would be fighting for their lives at Reggie with the rest of us on Tuesday and Wednesday nights shows that you might not be the best person to define stupid.
Hahaha, my thoughts exactly
People literally are highlighting like the 15-20 days a year that can be miserable and dangerous for training. However these hypothetical new elites in Boston would
A) have their pick of indoor tracks
B) have access to cars and thus more diverse terrain than just the charles river
C) be able to train during the day and avoid some of the most dangerous conditions like hidden black ice at night
The only thing missing from Boston is A) living at altitude, which Portland doesn't offer either and B) Long-up hill runs that you can find in places close to the mountains like flagstaff, boulder and Kenya.
