Had a great time this morning heading out for a 16 mile training run. Mrs. Running Griffin and I ran the 16 miles together which took us through Bridgewater and Raynham. We had some good hills mixed into today’s run particularly the hill over on King Phillip Street near the Raynham Recreation fields.

The pace this morning was nice and fortunately we got the majority of the run in before the 40-50 MPH winds started whipping through the area. We did have a couple of flurries fluttering down throughout the run but for the most part the weather was crisp, refreshing and altogether pretty nice out there.

We both felt as though we are on a pretty good pace for the Boston Marathon and today’s run was a good long run for the both of us. And of course, after running 16 miles the best way to recover is some barbecue food which we had at Blue Ribbon BBQ in Newton. Nothing like a rewarding plate of pulled pork, beans and cornbread to enjoy post-16 miler!
