Grrr.  I had this great post about how the restaurant at the hotel was understaffed, but the food was good, but I bumped a button and lost it.  That's what I get for using the laptop on the couch with lazy wrists.  Anyway, my favorite part about Sunday morning was seeing all the top guys hobbling down the stairs.

We had planned to see the Met, but decided that we didn't want to fight through NYC Marathon crowds and then miss our shuttle to the airport.  We ended up watching the marathon for a while (Paula Radcliffe is really tall) and grabbed some lunch.  My favorite part about this marathon was that people put their names on their shirts so you can cheer for them by name as they run by.  If I ever run a marathon, I'm definitely putting my name on my shirt.

That pretty much wraps up our NYC trip.  We got back to Logan at around 12:30 and I went directly to bed without unpacking (well, except for my toothbrush) because I had to wake up at 6:00 for work.

I felt really good Sunday, as far as knees and ankles go.  I guess all the walking that I did while there helped a lot.  So, despite the fact that I didn't follow my plan for the weekend, I still think it was beneficial.  We'll see how things are tomorrow.

Sounds like it was an incredible trip. I am so glad you were able to be there to cheer Paul on! Sounds like it was exhausting too. Hard to come back home?
