AM - 4.25 miles with Riley this morning in Boston.  From her place she wanted to take us on a route along the Charles - but we were pressed for time before church and ended up just doing a loop around the edge of BU's campus and heading back.  Had an awesome time yesterday - got to go to Fenway Park and watch the Sox and the Yankees play.  A friend hooked me up with pre-game field passes and sweet seats in the grandstand lower level behind home plate.  Great game and great memory.
