Another typical early run around the Lake

Today was another early morning visit to my regular weekend running location. What does today's run have to do with going to Boston? Just another early morning 9.5 mile run. I took it way easy today. In the dark at 6 am preparing, just keeping my legs moving. I'm still looking for the chance to drop more weight so that I can get faster. I have about 40 lbs to go before I feel that I seriously have a shot at being fast enough to qualify for Boston. I need a 3:15 marathon, sounds like an impossible time but, I know plenty of people who have done it. So I press.
