1/4 marathon

About 430 runners did the HTC 1/4 marathon this morning at Reservoir #3. Kelly Burns Gallagher directed it and did a fabulous job. It was pretty cold early on but the sun got stronger during the race and the sky was crystal clear.

Lani, Tray, Barbara, Dave and Lee ran. Lea volunteered. As Lee finished, Lani was waiting at the finish line (translation: she was *way* ahead of him). Tray crossed about 20 seconds after Lee. Lani reports Kathy Schultz picked up a couple of trophy blankets Lee and Lani apparently earned. Tray invited Lani to run the Westfield, MA 1/2 tomorrow and it looks like we'll have at least 3 Brickyarders (plus a friend of Tray's who will be accompanied by about 14 of her friends!).

Goals: Lee: 1:49:59. I shouldn't speak for Tray but ... how 'bout 1:54:59? As for Ms Ralston: if today is any indicator, she'll be well rested by the time the rest of us hit our watches.

Spozed to be *really* nice tomorrow.

Linda will hopefully join us and take some pix. April 18 can't come soon enuf; this is when her tax job will be done.

Lea's running Danbury tomorrow.

To all Brickyarders: rest, focus, eat well, be positive and do your best.
