morning pic before my run



I live just a few blocks from Riverside park. A nice green space that runs almost the whole length of Manhattan, along the Hudson. It was nice to be out enjoying the sun with the other runners, bikers, and dog walkers. I certainly plan to go back and sit on a bench and enjoy NY there! And will run there often.

I am training for the NY marathon on November 5th. Marathon number 6!

But I got some news from my podiatrist last Tuesday that I have stress reactions at my tibia. I am not supposed to run major runs for 6 weeks. So I'll be doing lots of biking at the gym and running in the pool!


PS. I saw my first star today!! Walking down 5th ave I passed the nurse? on ER with the curly brown hair. She was under the arm of a guy who I didn't get a good look at. I only saw her for a split second, but she looks pretty much the same as on the show. The only impression I walked away with is that she has a very distinct voice, and was wearing clumpy mascara.

You rock! Glad you're enjoying NYC! Just check with people to make sure when it's safe to run in Riverside Park - it wasn't always the safest place in NYC. And I'm hoping that you don't have to deal with a Subway Series this year. As a Sox fan, having to live in NYC through a Subway Series is awful. I missed the 2000 series, although it was bad enough just dealing with the Yankees in the Series in '98.
Enjoy school! I'll be curious to hear about your experiences going back after having been a teacher.
