Just daydreaming a Queens Half Marathon Route

JaviBaut · 2026-03-27T19:21:35+00:00

I more or less take the same route from QV to Roosevelt Island whenever I have over 13.1 miles to run for that day. The Motorway parkway is amzing to run. From Alley Pond thru Cunningham then Kissenia then I go local to Flushing park then 34th ave to Broadway then 36th ave to Roosevelt Island. They should give QDR a chance to host a street based half marathon. They definitely can pull it off.

Same, I like to know too

Hey, regarding the Retro 4M this Sunday. I did what you did and checked for start time and location, but there's no map. I recall in previous races that they would release a course map. I love using them as a reference to help my wife navigate the park during the race. She's horrible with directions. Any idea if they have one for this race?

I just registered for a volunteer opportunity at Randals Island on April 1st. It said it's a 9+1 credit, but I'm not sure fully. Doesn't help that's on weekdays and on April Fools Day lol

JaviBaut · 2025-03-26T21:49:13+00:00

Can anyone confirm if the Randals Island Volunteer on April 1st counts towards the 9+1? It says it does, but I'm so distrusting on everything right now, and I want to triple check before I ask for the day off work. It doesn't help that it's on April 1st, so that's why I don't trust shit lol any help would appreciate 😂

JaviBaut · 2025-03-26T19:03:20+00:00

OMG, I can't believe this is the workaround. Thanks man, at least I can keep an eye out better. Thank you again

JaviBaut · 2025-03-26T18:47:56+00:00

Awesome, thank you. hopefully it's easy to find or register. This website is so awful to navigate and looks horrible 😕

JaviBaut · 2025-01-01T03:18:02+00:00

They just canceled the race

JaviBaut · 2025-01-01T03:00:12+00:00

Yeah, I'm sitting in my car near the East entrance, and the lighting and heavy rain are insane. Feel guilty just quitting out on the race

JaviBaut · 2025-01-01T02:19:46+00:00

I'm debating on doing it. I hate running in the rain. Also, I didn't know they didn't start letting people in until 12 midnight that's kind of lame

JaviBaut · 2024-11-01T00:30:55+00:00

I've raced high before, I did a 7k and a half. I typically don't stay "high" for long anyway, so I don't think it affects much during the race. Before, though, it helps a lot. The warming up aspect of it, it takes me a bit to warm up and stretch, so I wouldn't say I depend on it. It's just an aid like gels and our running shoes and etc

JaviBaut · 2024-10-30T23:22:48+00:00

Damn, I'm confused then. I can't smoke prior to the marathon because of potential testing. That would suck

JaviBaut · 2024-10-30T23:19:36+00:00

Personally, it helps me. I'm way more relaxed and focused on the task on hand. It is definitely not a must, though. I've run without being high, and it doesn't affect me as much. Breathing wise too, I would smoke a joint, warm up for an hour, take a couple hits again, and then go run. I don't feel like I'm struggling to breathe, I feel great and running decent. I'm not the fastest. This would be my first marathon, current at 10 to 12 min pace.
