Roughly eight weeks ago, I started mapping out my tune-up races for the Boston Marathon. I did not have much luck finding the prescribed race distances and was left to pick either a 20k or a 5k for my final tune-up. I have learned enough to know that the 20k would have taken nearly two weeks to fully recover from, which would have bumped right up to the Boston Marathon start, so I chose a 5k. ........
