The final "long" run of the 2013 Boston Marathon training cycle - 15 miles - which meant it was time for one more trip back in to break a few hearts on the hills of Newton on the marathon course along Boston College and its environs.
And this time, we were joined by Scott Spence, fresh off his Hawaiian adventure.
At this point of the run, we've still got a lot of gas in our reservoir
Heading out in Brookline, the sidewalks are ours. No sign of the camelback this year.
Andrew, pointing out the marathon finish line, which seems oh, so far away at this point
Looks like Sean's trying to reel Andrew in
Recapturing their Eastern States pace, Tommy tries unsuccessfully to keep an eye on Andrew, that brown speck way off in the distance
Five alive
Legends of the Boston Marathon - Johnny Kelly and the E Streeters
One of these men will make history on April 15
It looks like we made a fashion boo-boo, but look closely, you'll see we're rocking the Boston Marathon swag from 2008, 2010, and 2012
And Four Horsemen came running out of the sun
Thank God for the well-placed water stops along the course
And afterwards, what else, but our Boston Marathon post-run training regimen - Mexican food. For me, it was breakfast tacos
Andrew went the route of chorizo
And Tommy? He went with the Chululu hot sauce. Barry opted for the Korean cuisine further down the block.
One more 10 miler on the horizon for us, and then it's all over but the sobbing.
Happy Easter 2013 to all!
