NYC Marathon!

On the Verrazano–Narrows Bridge. Only twenty-six miles to go!

Last Sunday I was pleased to participate for my third-time in the New York City Marathon, the world's biggest and most popular marathon (go New York!). Originally a Central Park race with fifty-five finishers, the race now has approximately 50,000 finishers from all over the world, which explains why it is always so crowded. Despite the very unseasonably warm fall day, I was happy to see Liz, who ran last year, cheering very enthusiastically in Brooklyn. But give me some colder weather, autumn! Oh well, there's always next year.

In honor of National Running Day this week (it was June 3, to be exact), we wanted to celebrate the many runners in the office, including paralegal David Lewis who recently ran the Brooklyn Half Marathon and is training for yet another marathon. (Lizzie B, you may remember, also ran a marathon recently). Looking good, David, keep it up! Next year I'll be waiting for you on the Coney Island boardwalk with a hotdog and beer.
