Running

Posted in Boston-area, sports on September 21st, 2010 by Elizabeth – 2 Comments

I am “running” a 5K on Saturday and in preparation I went to the gym yesterday.  This was probably my first visit in about a year.  Needless to say, I completed a 5K on the treadmill in 34:50 so we know that I will finish and not puke at the end.  Hard to believe I once ran a marathon. 

Then after the 5K we have to go over to the BC/VT game that starts at noon.  Planning to sleep in on Sunday…

Hurricane Earl…

Oh Earl, please don’t ruin my plans.  Brendan is expected to fly home tomorrow and land around 6:30.  Earl is expected to arrive late afternoon, with the center passing over Massachusetts between 10:00 pm and 3:00 am.   With its current course, Boston will have winds of 35 miles per hour.  If it moves a bit out to sea, we may not see any real winds. 

What does this mean for Brendan?  I don’t really know at this point.  Since he is flying through Iceland, he is more north and wouldn’t fly into the hurricane but I doubt you can land with those winds.
