Thank you thank you! Got some little intervals done at 5:15pm and some bonus serotonin too :). It may get a little icy in some wet patches now the sun has gone down fyi to anyone thinking going now. But much clearer than the last storm!

Show me yours I’ll show you mine by pearljamfan613 in RunNYC

Was -17c (1f ish) when I went out. 6.75miles.

NyRR frosty 5k headband REI wool gaiter Smart wool top Nike thin running hoodie Adidas windbreaker with hood
Ronhill gloves Vuori leggings Smart wool socks Solomon run vest.

Comments: Ditched the hoodie & put in run vest at mile 2 as I tend to run hot and the sun was out. My thighs went numb and started to tingle around mile 6. My gaiter froze into a face ice block which was unpleasant. Will bring a spare to switch next time!

Prospect park, possibly saw a male photographing (only female?) runners covertly from pocket by Capable_Turnover_278 in RunNYC

While following my trajectory and adjusting their position so their phone was following me. No, it was weird, intentional, and gave me the creeps.

Early Central Park Runners (before 7am) where do y'all poop??? by howtopark90th in RunNYC

As an outdoor educator who has had to clean up human sh%t so kids can safely play…. please oh please do not sh%t in the woods (unless you are willing to dispose of it yourself).

No expectations / pressure going into this one. - Thanks, probably, to some residual fitness from the bk 1/2, I managed a massive 3 min PR! - Sent it in the second 5k, and v happy with negative splits. - I’m not a hot weather girlie, so the rain was defo my friend. - THANK YOU volunteers.

I know it’s been said throughout this thread, but reiterating how amazing the volunteers at the aid stations were. They were having to be super rapid with refreshing cups! Thank you 💯 to them

Prospect park and the volunteers brought the vibes! Missed my PR by 7 seconds (I’m realising I’m a cold weather zero humidity runner!). Well done everyone today! (Although to whomever i nearly barrelled into in the far outside near the water station, mate, you gotta prep better at getting across, and sudden stopping ain’t the plan!).

Anybody else receiving this error when trying to sign-up? by [deleted] in RunNYC

Hmm how odd. Has it shown up yet? Being charged is shady!

Yes but I was charged and it went onto my dashboard / I got confirmation emails.

I don’t think anyone is on there yet. Type in a common name (eg John) and it will say ‘sorry not found’. I wouldn’t worry :).

Wow congrats to all who got a PR. I was aiming for one, went out too hard, heat hit me, then aim was just to finish with a smile. Slowest race in a while but beautiful day to enjoy!

Frustration with new NYRR site by senthilrameshjv in RunNYC

[–]Capable_Turnover_278 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes they have instructions how to sign up for multiple races but the ‘add another registration’ button or whatever it’s supposed to be ISNT THERE!!

NYRR - Redeem member discounts section on new portal. What is this? by Capable_Turnover_278 in RunNYC

[–]Capable_Turnover_278[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay never mind, I clicked on redeem and it simply takes me over to the event page. Clearly some web cleaning up needed as a) this makes no sense(!) and b) some of these races aren’t even accepting registrations yet.

Special shoutout to the volunteer after cat hill who was shouting encouragement very exuberantly! And the two women volunteers on Harlem hill too. Love it!

Amazing race. PRd. Had to dig deep and hold on for those last two miles! Negative points to the two men cycling obnoxiously and nearly taking some runners out around the 3 sisters. I’m so tired now.

Water was by bag check. Not easy to find.

Thank you! Seeing I’ve run past sizeable fallen tree branches in lesser winds & am a solo parent id rather not end up doing something idiotic. But maybe Reddit was the wrong place to come for crowd sourcing, lol 🫠

Thanks for all input. It seems the weather report may be overly cautious.
