I just did a 4M in Central Park, and a woman in a burka was in it. There's still room in the Harlem 5K in August that I'm running, you should check it out. That's really awesome though. I thought about starting a JN running thread, would love to talk training, but figured that would be as big of a hit as going to JN for fashion advice. Ah. I had an ex-gf who was an NYRR person and they’d do these casual 13 mile training runs on the weekend like it was nothing, so I assumed it was for supreme runners. I’ll check out the site. We should start a running thread anyway. Can’t be any worse than anything else going up on the board these days. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember running 13M like it was nothing. Crazy how quickly you lose it. Last Sept-Nov I could do 15M with ease. Now, 4M is tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long did it take you to work up to 10+ miles without dying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bugg Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Used to bike all the time on the whole boardwalk, but did it maybe once last year. You do not hear English spoken-Spanish, Russian, sure. But not English.It's still a much more pleasant place than when I was a tyke. The Cyclones, the only thing the Wilpons did right, had a lot to do with that. My nephew's prep hockey team plays their home games there at Abe Stark. It's goddamn cold in January. The Ford Ampitheatre is a nice venue. But they only seem to get acts on the downside who cannot sell enough tickets to play Jones Beach. Was a time that looked like the Cyclones' stadium would compete-Phish, Def Leppard. But that kind of died. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was fun to hear them yelling into cell phones to their families back home. Like a movie or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southparkcpa Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 I took a dump in the Ocean once near Coney Island. I calculated I would never make it to the men’s room so there I went, standing in a crowd of people who had no idea why I was smiling, standing in the murky Brooklyn Ocean. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
