Entering Hopkinton

I walked a mile and a half into Hopkinton from Rt. 495 at around 9:30 a.m. The sign on the left reads "Boston Marathon Info." No tips on how to run the race, though. ;-) The road into town was surprisingly lonely, although there were a few people. No auto traffic at all, needless to say. :-) Met my first bandit, who had flown in from Miami for the race.

As is evident, it was a beautiful, clear day.
