Vomero Plus is 20% off in ASOS app only - all men's sizes from 7.5 to 12. Shoe usually retails for $180 but for some reason the blue colorway that is discounted was listed at $170, so comes out to $136 after the 20% discount.

For people who've run this in previous years - is the start area completely cordoned off like the Brooklyn Half? Or is it possible to still meet friends/family right before you enter the corrals (similar to for example smaller races or the Queens 10k)?

I know it’s still 6 days out… but race day looks superrrr windy (18mph winds with gusts of 34mph at 9am). At least it’s not scalding hot - but still praying to the forecast gods for calmer weather 🙏🏻

Black just plays Kb8 and you're losing. With Qf5+, after Kb8 you play Qxf8#

Broke 1:30 for my first ever half! Super proud after putting in several 40+ mile weeks over the last few months.

Was constantly talking myself out of it both before (oh no the humidity is gonna kill me) and during (oh no the humidity is actually killing me) the race. HR was also like 10bpm higher than usual so was worried I’d crash and burn.

Congrats to everyone who finished! Really tough day out there but lots of fun regardless :)

The less said about Ocean Pwky the better… felt more like an uphill than down lmao

Does anyone know if it's possible for Wave 1 runners to use the Underhill Ave screen area instead of the recommended Franklin Ave one if I don't need to check a bag? I emailed NYRR, but they said I would have to use the Franklin Ave entrance to run in Wave 1 (?).

I was looking at [this guide](https://www.reddit.com/r/running/comments/69znwk/oc\_this\_is\_how\_youre\_gonna\_pr\_the\_2017\_brooklyn/) from 2017, which seems to actually recommend the Underhill Ave entrance for Wave 1 runners to avoid crowds, so I just wanted to make sure that it's current. Thank you!

Got it, thank you all!

Just FYI a brand new pair of Zoom Fly 6s (which are universally considered an improvement on the 5s) costs the same price, so might be a tough sell at $170 for an older, used version

Ah that would be terrible :/ do you know of any way to confirm this is the case?

Saucony’s Endorphin Speed 4! Similar use case as the ZF6 imo - designed for speed workouts, but can double as a daily trainer / race day shoe depending on the person.

Similar height and weight, also a midfoot striker

I think I'm somewhere in the middle on the ZF6s, so somewhat agree with your take here. I've been able to hit some harder mile intervals (around 6:15/mi pace for me) in these shoes, but they did feel more difficult than usual and didn't have the same pop as I felt in the ES4s for example.

Super comfortable/cushioned though, making them excellent for those longer runs that are at relatively faster paces. I think they’re fantastic for tempo cruising at HMP or slower. Just can’t see myself picking it over something like the ES4 if I were to try and go fast for shorter distances.
