not bad for mile 25

    Heh.  I have been here for 4 or 5 years. It did not even occur to me that the quote attribution might be a link that would do something.  That is very cool.

     

    Holy crap.

    I thought it was like, fifteen.  You exude such experience.

      Nah, it just seems like fifteen.

        Since I sucked it over as a quote, I think you can click on the "Quote from..." right above the quote box to get to the source thread. [that's meant to be an 'fyi' and not a 'here, let me google that for you' snark.]

         

        It is definitely an grand master-aged message, but struck me as having most of the core, downtown possibles stuffed into one action-packed message from Ed.

         

        I still don't know what you are talking about.

          ...assuming it's a serious question -- the point I was sharing is the forum software now lets you click through the "Quote from xxx" right above the quote box to link back to the source thread from which the quote was sucked forward.

            I've been doing some runs at work on the course at work recently and came upon in Natick. I had a chuckle. I would have figured it would have been a bit longer.

                  You can take Franklin Street or Milk Street until you get to Downtown Crossing. Then take Bromfield Street to Tremont Street. Once you're on Tremont you can't miss Boston Common. Run to the opposite corner of the Common (see map) . Run along Beacon (or through the Public Garden) until you reach the corner of Beacon Street and Arlington Street. Cross Beacon Street and you'll see a funky orange twirley bridge thingy that takes you right to the Charles river walk/bike way.

                  Thanks for this... after checking out the finish line, I used your directions to the funky orange twirley bridge thingy (officially the Arthur Fiedler Bridge, oo aaah) and played chicken with bicycles along the river.  Then I crossed over to Cambridge and came back.  Worked great.
