Groton-Lost Lake 40 miler

Gorgeous, tragic day of the Boston Marathon bombing. Could not just sit and listen to live reports of nothing but speculation. Weather was near 60 degrees to start, but cooled to high 40's by the end of the ride. Glad I brought 2 base layers along with the jersey. Easterly to southerly winds gave a nice tailwind up to Groton, but had to fight some headwinds on most of the return. First 40 miler of the season and the legs were tired by the end. But physical fatigue is easier to take than human tragedy.
