Training for the 2014 Boston Marathon

Today's run was a lot of fun on a perfect sunny Oaxaca morning.

Suleiman is a New York City based runner with a penchant for visiting Oaxaca. We headed up to the Libramiento today, the no-traffic road beloved by the fitness buffs of Oaxaca. Our one hour run started at about 5500 feet, we did an out-and-back course up to around 5800 feet and back.


Suleiman is preparing for this year's Boston Marathon with a bit of altitude running in Oaxaca. He completed last fall's New York Marathon in about 3:45, no mean feat for a 54 year old dude, and all the more impressive considering he is blind!

We'll get out a for a couple more runs while he's in town, working those steeeeeeep inclines.
