NEW YORK MARATHON RUNNING HEATING UP AGAIN

I ran into a friend of mine the other day that said she’s running in the NYC marathon. I told her I’m amazed every year the amount of passion and attention the event gets from all over the world. It’s truly a World Event.

You can see the numbers of runners begin to increase in late August. Suddenly Central Park is overrun by skinny aliens in very short shorts trekking mile after mile until by late October you can hear about a dozen languages emitting from the runners.

What brings all these people with one shared interest from so many corners of the world to New York City every year? I believe it’s a combination of:

• Our beautiful New York autumns.
• The camaraderie of thousands of runner spinning high in a vortex on a small island.
• The act of running itself.

Whatever it is, it’s great to have them here!
