Well, I can sum up Saturday’s NYRR Mini 10k in two words: hills and humidity. The combination of the two made for a really tough race, but I crossed the finish line with a smile on my face. And, really, isn’t that the best part about running a race? I love running in Central Park, but [...]

Not these guys: But, how fun would THAT be!?! After the Party Ready event, I headed over to The Ginger Man to meet a few drinking buddies.

Yesterday was all about walking… and walking and walking. Mal and I walked from our hotel in Midtown Manhattan to SoHo, which was a little over 3 miles. We made a couple of pit-stops along the way, but we basically walked for two hours straight. Times Square. Madison Square Park. Eventually, we got thirsty and [...]
