I like the idea of taking it all in. I'd love to run NYC one day, but I totally agree: I don't want to run the full. (The waiting around between the shuttle and start time really freaks me out for the full!).

That's why it's really rough to do a fall marathon if you live in AZ- training in the summer here is brutal.Jaimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07412864659613068146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930457134828005115.post-86763186068142562552017-01-29T21:55:08.974-05:002017-01-29T21:55:08.974-05:00Take it nice and slow, soak in the city while runn...Take it nice and slow, soak in the city while running - then have a fabulous time playing tourist after.Abbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16974948295074149005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930457134828005115.post-35188242369293155852017-01-28T21:17:23.332-05:002017-01-28T21:17:23.332-05:00What a great Christmas gift!

No judgement here - I see no problem with running the race for the experience. I'll be going into this race undertrained for sure so I hear you on the no time goals.<br /><br />I love that you have all your travel sorted out - a huge stress for me! How does the whole travel partner work?
