'I find it wholesome to be alone the greater part of the time. To be in company, even with the best, is soon wearisome and dissipating. I love to be alone. I never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude.' -Henry David Thoreau, Walden ### Pre-race morning shakeout with birthday boy declancmurray around Walden Pond. Thoreau was a smart dude, but he clearly never spent time with this Irish lad. #walden #transcendentalism #nature #civildisobedience #parkingwastendollars #declansbirthday #adrianmartinezclassic
