12.6-mile bike ride from Granville Gorge up Rt 57, out Old Westfield Road, and then down to North Loomis and back to the car.

Return visit to Healing Ways Acupuncture for some extra help with the right achilles.

I completed my 11th marathon on this day in 1996 at Nipmuck.  

I ran a 3:56:50 in the race, which was good for 15th place.
