7 am - Mardi Gras Half Marathon in New Orleans.  Nice, flat course.  I didn't "race" this one, just wanted to use it as a training opportunity to ramp up the training for Boston.  Saw my triathlon team-mate, Scott, who was running the full and trying to qualify for Boston.  Ran the first half with him.  It was his first marathon.  Looks like he missed BQ by about 8 minutes.

Rest day - took the small dogs (Ruby, Clarice, Flipper, and Kirby) to Shelby Farms Park and walked around with them and threw the tennis ball - they had a blast!  It feels like springtime!  Next time, will have to take Carbon and Luke (the big dogs).

Went to work in the morning and planned a short recovery run but got sick during the afternoon and had to get antibiotics to treat a respiratory infection.

7.3 miles in collierville after work.  Felt like there is a pulled muscle or ligament in the right groin.  Worked it out a little during the run.
