Back on the Horse

The Saturday after the Boston Marathon, it's time to hit the trails again, and see how the legs and feet are feeling, so what better way to test it than an E Streeters trail run at East Boston Camps in Westford?

Joined today, by special guest star Jill Kenny, training for her upcoming Vermont half-marathon.  Someone finally brought some running creds to the Kenny name.

L.L. Bean, Eastern Mountain Sports, take note: it may be hard to see, but that twig tucked in securely over Scott's ear is the new-found, sure-fire way to keep ticks off you during a trail run.  Scott, patent it now.
Right around here, Tommy broke open yet another of the blisters he earned as a badge of honor finishing Boston in that ridiculous temperature on Monday.  The next picture would have shown the pain on his face.
The family that runs together, has fun together.  Mysteriously, Sean and Jill were always taking a different path through the woods.  Nobody could figure out what they were up to.
Finally, back at East Boston Camps, none the worse for the wear, we're ready for muffins.  Thankfully, no residual effects post-Boston, so it's full-steam ahead, back in the groove, and any other cliches we can think of to say that we're ready to run again!

Glad to see everyone alive and well. Nothing to get you going again like a little hair of the dog. If only it has been this cool last week.
