The Wall Street Run, AKA The Ankle Breaker, is in the books. I've got to admit I was not feeling this race at all and was the closest I've been to bagging a race since last fall when I was… Full Story »

Weekend recap: yesterday was the Healthy Kidney 10k. I was not thrilled about this race given my new and improved runner's knee resurgence, but I was already paid up and registered, lots of people couldn't get in that wanted to, and it's one of the fastest 10ks in the US (Central Park course notwithstanding; it's far more about… Full Story »

It's been quiet here. I've been rolling and icing and strengthening and stretching like a good little patient, and I'm going to go out for a very easy two or three miles wearing a cho-pat strap tomorrow morning. It feels… Full Story »

Last Thursday President Obama came to the city in honor of the killing of Osama Bin Laden, met with some of the families of 9/11 victims, ate lunch at a firehouse and signed the patrol log at the 1st Precinct stationhouse. Conveniently, a lot of this happened during my lunch break, and since I work just a few… Full Story »

I rode 20 miles Sunday. It was not only my first time going that distance, but also an amazing day for it... 70's, clear, sunny, just right. My bike is cranky, unfortunately - the second ring is all messed up… Full Story »

I sandwiched the Run for the Wild 5k into a 10 mile run yesterday. I'm still not sure if it was ill-advised or totally awesome. First, I ran about 3.5 miles there on the Pelham Parkway Greenway. (I tried to link to a slideshow that shows all of the places the Bronx greenways travel - they essentially connect the significant amounts of parkland found in the Bronx, from City Island / Orchard Beach through Pelham Bay Park, where I live, across Pelham Parkway, and into Bronx Park, which contains the Bronx Zoo and the Botanical Gardens,… Full Story »

Eh. Rest day. Little happening. The Bronx Zoo Run for the Wild 5k is Saturday. I think I might jog to it - it's 2.5 to 3 miles away, so the whole thing makes a perfect 10-ish miles. The weather is supposed to be GAWWWWGEOUS and weekend morning public transit in the Boogoe… Full Story »
