BIB# 11905 Blue Wave #1 Corral #11 9:40 start.
I'm feeling a little pressure now. First wave-I don't think I yet deserve that. I'll take it after dodging thousands of runners in a local 10k today from start to finish. Less to pass yet more to pass me

Bib # 5609 - Orange Wave 1 - Corral # 5
Not sure if I'm desersving of a wave 1 start this year but I'll take it. Sunday's Half Marathon here in Maine should be a good indicator of where I am with my recovery and my ability to run the Full Marathon in NY. I really don't want to be out there for over 4 hours and would be happy if I could finish around 3:30, may have to settle for a sub 4:00 goal.
* My original goal for this week end was a sub 1:30 half, but now I would be happy with a sub 1:40 which would gurantee me entry into next year's NY Marathon for my 5th consecutive NY! Just have to hope the right glute and hamstring behave.
I'm bib #45906. Blue Wave #3, corral 45.
I don't know if that's good or bad. Ha!
