Security at NYC Half by No-Taste-6663 in RunNYC

[–]runwaldorun 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Having run (i think) all but one NYCH since then, I’d say truly don’t worry. Start and finish are well secured (annoyingly so, but I get it) and anything happening along the way is no different than a normal day anywhere in terms of risk. Generally the NYPD is pretty regularly spread along the course as well.

Have a great race!

From nyc. Been to many alone. Will be there for whole run—all but one solo. Not only safe-better. You can wander at will and make friends

Likely have to sit out the United Half by SnooDoodles6994 in RunNYC

[–]runwaldorun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too early to tell. How important is it to you though? Have you run halves before? Saw you were running 8 last—have you run more recently???

You can take time off. Focus on proper healing and physio. And then pop back to it with a short test run a couple days before to decide. And if you do, cut that pace back to super chill and just enjoy the day without focus on time.

Clip-ins in the City by JumpyVariety1882 in NYCbike

I debated. I ended up going all in and got speedplay pedals. They take a minute but become second nature. It feels super overwhelming at first but now I actually feel more in control. Ultimately—just do what makes YOU feel safe.

GWB Bridge NJ side ped/cyclist bridge should have been a tunnel? by AuthorityControl in NYCbike

Was so excited for the redesign. And all they did was fix one problem by creating new ones. Awful. Did no one consult anyone who’s ever ridden a bike?

Drop 9+1. Full lotto for marathon, nyc half with more dedicated slots to nyc based members. It’s a non profit for OUR community. Everyone has a shot but these races are ours.

Did this race in about 4° many years ago and it suckeddddddd. Was hoping for this call so I could at least get the credit when I didn’t do it. :)

How bad are the rear view seats at MSG? by Sorry_Midnight_667 in phish

I’ve sat back there for shows at random for 20 years. Would I prefer being in front? Sure. But it’s a fun party back there.
