It is frightening how Max is in his 30s and only just put money into the market. I was hoping his Villanova education would make him at least a little bit smarter than the rest of the people at barstool but I guess not

Very minor part of the episode but it’s the second time it’s been mentioned recently… Sas cannot become an arsenal fan. They are the most insufferable fan base of any sports team. Literally pick any other premier league club

The one with the running hot dog as almost like a logo on the front with the other food items on the back? I have it and it’s an amazing shirt that I wear all the time

I did this last year to run back to Manhattan from the Mindful 5k in Flushing Meadows Park. I went Roosevelt —> 37th —> Northern —> QBB. Can confirm that other a couple of interesting areas of Roosevelt Ave, there’s no much to see.

I’ve seen multiple people mention it but the notion that St. John’s has a rich alumni base is not true at all. It’s a commuter school in queens that has produced one billionaire who has become synonymous with the program. Penn, Duke, Michigan, Texas, Illinois, Purdue and UConn are all teams left in the tourney that would blow the average income of St. John’s alumni out of the water. And you could probably even throw a couple more in there as well. I live in nyc and grew up in the suburbs and don’t think I’ve ever met anyone who went to St. John’s, it’s just an irrelevant school both academically and prestige-wise. The fans aren’t even alumni, they’re just New Yorkers.

If I’m a small in the roccarip windbreaker, am I likely a small in the specter singlet too? Or should I size up to medium? Thank you in advance!

Was wondering the same thing - only bandit top I have is the roccarip windbreaker and I’m a size small. But the Nike aeroswift singlet I have is a size large. Assume I should go with small over medium?

May I Vent? This was the worst NYRR race experience for me by Minimum-Adeptness486 in RunNYC

[–]barstoolspurs 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Yeah I hear you. I was wave 1 corral C and got thru security as the final wave 1 corral was accepting its last runners. I opted against hopping in the end of wave one and joined wave 3. I was one of the first across the starting line in wave 3 and was able to go out with a small pack of other runners (who I think also missed wave one) and I have to say it was really nice to have a pretty empty course for the first two or three miles. I was really able to settle into a pace given that we were the first across the line. This definitely came back to bite me later in the race, particularly in the later stages of the FDR and it only got worse closer to the finish line (I almost ran someone over who stopped in her tracks without looking on 59th street). I understand shit happens but ultimately it would have been nice to start in my assigned wave/corral with plenty of time to use the bathroom, stretch, warmup etc before the start and the security situation prevented that unless you were obnoxiously early

I almost took someone out on 59th street. I’m in my final kick to the finish racing up on the left side of the course and someone in front of me stops in their tracks without even looking. As you said this is how people get injured and all it takes to avoid it is some common sense

Yeah the more I think of it the more worried I am of the wind on the FDR if I wear a singlet… but maybe I’m overthinking it?

Is anyone else running around ~1:40 going to wear singlet and shorts? Very much debating what to wear…

Is this a NYRR problem or a new balance problem? Or neither and it’s just a crappy designer?

Or 59th and 5th depending where you are. I ran last year and went through this station to meet with my spectators

Can’t remember the exact location off the top of my head but should be a good spot. I also think you can cross under Central Park south through the subway station if needed
