NYC MARATHON Guide

If you're not running the NYC Marathon, it's still a great experience to go into Manhattan or any of the boroughs to cheer on the runners. After all, there's nothing like the feeling coming down of the 59th Street Bridge to hear the roar of the crowd along First Avenue . (I guess that's why many runners crash at Mile 21 - at the end of First Avenue?!)

Didn't get that last minute entry to NYC? Want to still be part of the excitement?

For those of you who haven't spectated before, or are traveling to NYC for the first time to cheer someone on, here's some recommendations from when I've spectated and cheered on friends running - and where its been needed most while I was running. Follow this route and you can get to see your runners 3-4 times during the marathon.

September Race Update-TICKER

Fall has definitely arrived...along with the cooler weather, has arrived the half and marathon runs. This month, there was a lot of race activity.

In the spirit of Halloween (a bit early) the total race ticker is currently up to 666 miles!

21 days later...

A few weeks ago, I wrote about the psychological theory that it takes 21 days to affect behavior change. So I decided to put it to the test. For the last 21 days I attempted to "change my running behavior" to get up in the morning and run before work, instead of trying to get my run in during the evening.

Running in the am would help me reduce my procrastination and undoubtedly help me be more consistent in my training. Thus eliminating the huge, gaping holes in my training during the week which gets met closer to my next Half or Marathon event goals. Sounds easy, right?

Here's where I netted out.....

August Race Update-TICKER

 Getting all those last minute summer runs in - particularly around Labor Day. I know many of you did doubles and triples this past weekend...so if I've missed you please post your races I've missed on the FB fan page. A total of 516 race miles have been logged by this group (since April)--outstanding job!
