Hair-Do Auction

I am auctioning off my "look" on Marathon Monday.  Many know that I usually dye it or spike it or do something a bit crazy with my hair, and I'm going to let YOU decide this year.  Whomever makes the largest donation by the end of this coming week (Friday midnight) wins.  The hair on my scalp is free reign - you can determine cut, color, whatever, as long as it's in good taste ;-)  I've been growing my hair out just for this purpose.

Team Long Run 20 MILES!

Happy St Patty's Day from the New England Aquarium marathon team!  We did our 19 (20 actually) mile long run this past Sunday, from Framingham to Copley Square.  We were 8 strong, only missing 1 of our local runners (the other 8 live in TX, DC, VA, KY, FL, WA and GA).  GO FISH!
