A dozen or so runners gather at race headquarters...<br><br><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="" src="http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m67/JIntorcio/PreStart.jpg" style="border:0px solid;"></div>
<br>
After a stirring rendition of the National Anthem, participants were treated to a flyover...<br><br><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="" src="http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m67/JIntorcio/FlyOver.jpg" style="border:0px solid;"></div>
<br>
They then hit the pavement at just after 10:30 EDT for the first of four loops totaling 26.2 miles!! More as the race progresses... (Maybe)

Excellent stuff! Keep them coming!<br><br>
Just getting up here in the Pac NW. BD is on his way out for a leg stretcher and I think I'll make up a batch of scones for bfast before the pool/errands/ride/lovely beverages.

They should be threw quite a few miles by now including the beer loop.<br>
Can't wait to hear the stories and pictures. Wonder if they got the running stippers I ordered? Each lap they lose an article until it's pasties and spray on panties in the Chilly Boston air.
