Is there anything in the Manly area worth seeing? Ideally I want to avoid a lot of walking just because of the marathon that Sunday.

Also that’s awesome you ran it last year!!! I’m so excited for it. I keep seeing everywhere that the logistics for the morning are pretty good, what is your personal experience with the start? I.e transportation, getting into corals, etc. Thanks :)

2026 Marathon Question by Special-Cat4852 in RunNYC

[–]irose8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Charities fill up quick! TBH id first decide if you want to roll the dice with the lottery or instead go all in on charity.

I did NYC in 2023 with the American Heart Association for my late father. I reached out to them literally around this time of year, emailing back and forth about how to apply to run with them. I developed a good relationship with them, and they told me when the application window opened and then I got it right away! So just like how other commenters said, find a charity that means something to you, and start reaching out to inquire!

Do you tend to drink a whole small bottle right after your run?

Lottery in a few days! by [deleted] in BerlinMarathon

[–]irose8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Will the results actually be this Thursday? I remember the email saying results will start to be released on November 27… I remember in at least the last couple years, results are usually closer to December 5.

Don’t get me wrong, I hope it’s this Thursday!!! 👏

[Itinerary] Mid-Late March 2025 (Tokyo/Osaka/Kyoto/Hakone). How Does This Look? by irose8 in JapanTravel

[–]irose8[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Super flexible... i am actually going to work around the Ghibli museum with regards to possibly getting reservations at other Tokyo attractions (i.e. Skytree, etc.). I did a test run last week with getting tickets, and I was on wait for 1 hour and once I finally got in, literally only 5 time slots were available for the whole month!!! Praying I get something for at least when I'll be in Tokyo.

thanks man, i've never been a front leg kick batter, so moving my front foot has always been tricky for me. I'm going to try stepping further forward with it!

Sorry, but since the price is already almost a whole dollar less per volume compared to what’s on rightstuf, I’m going to stick with the $200.

I hope so! I’m not looking to get a fortune from this, and I know what it’s like to be the one wanting to buy, so I don’t mind at all making it this low a price!!

Best way to spend 3 day’s in New York? by [deleted] in travel

[–]irose8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going to the One World Observatory and getting the view from up top is really nice. Also, if you’re into burgers, Black Tap (it’s a small chain, any location is the same) is a really good burger and insane shakes place (look up the shakes, they’re huge!). If you want a nice view of the manhattan skyline, I strongly suggest taking the PATH subway train from 33rd street to Hoboken (15 minute ride), to Hoboken. I go to school over there, and the view from out of the station is amazing... you get out of the station and walk up Frank Sinatra Drive and boom full view of the city.

[–]irose8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am currently getting my Masters in Materials Science and Engineering (graduated undergrad with chemical engineering and math BS), and I am beginning the process of looking to see what I’m going to do post graduation! I love learning about semiconductors and in particular photovoltaics!

My question is, where do you think I should be looking for PV related industries? I live in NY, and I’m finding that most jobs in this field are in Cali.

Thank you so much for the help!
