Traveled to Boston. My brother Jim picked me up at the airport and we were in downtown Boston before noon. Went to the expo for a bit but did not stay long as we were trying to catch a game. Had time for a Sam Adams beer sample and a pull-up contest. Jim beat me with about 21 pull-ups to my 16, although mine were palms facing away and I'd like to think I had better form, lol. Fortunately, I started doing pull-ups again otherwise it would've been much worse. Pretty happy I can crank out 16 but I think I can boost that to over 20.
Saw the game with Jim and Andy, really nice day out. Toward the end of the game we left a little early and stopped at the bar that's built into the bottom of the stadium with door outside but a big glass window looking out to the field.
Still had time to swing back by the expo and make a couple of signs. Mine had "Go Tom!" and a couple other things, Jim had his decorated with a Buffalo Bills logo that he talke a young woman at the expo into drawing.
Then, over to the hotel in Framingham and dinner at Legal Seafoods next to the hotel.
Didn't stay up too late as I wanted to get up early enough for 50 minute run, get ready, back to the hotel, and then walk about 2 miles to the course. From there we'd take an Uber to near the finish area.
