New York, NY 6:00 am

The Garmin watch struggles in the city. It didn't find a sattelite until I was in Central Park and then when we got out of the park, reception was all over the place. But it was a great run. Up through Times Square into the park and around the reservoir. The only thing that would have made it better would be if it was not so dark out. We're planning on running after work tomorrow.

New York City, NY

Planned on doing a few miles after work. We started at Matt's hotel near the Empire State Building and ran to the East River. We ran on the paths along the river for a while and got to the place where we planned on turning around. But we saw the Brooklyn Bridge up ahead and decided to run to it. When we got there we decided that since we where there, and might never be there again, we decided to run across it. When we got to the other side, we decided to run over to the Manhattan Bridge. When we got off of the bridge we were in Chinatown, and kind of lost. We stopped at a drug store and bought some Gatorade and the worked our way back over to the river and back the way we came.

About ten miles into it Matt's calf started cramping up pretty bad, so we went Jeff Galloway for the last two miles. Run a while, walk a while. When we finished Matt kept appologizing for ruining the run. I told him to shut up. He didn't ruin anything. It was one of the coolest runs of my life and was a lot more fun than it would have been by myself.

New York, NY 6:00 am

I rested last night because my leg was sore. But I don't think it's from running. I think it is all of the walking I've done this week. Next time I come here I'll have to figure out how the subway works.

This morning the legs were fine, so I went up 8th to Central Park. I took a loop up to and around the reservoir and back down 8th. Felt good during the whole run. Wish it was light the whole way, but it's still too early in the year for that.
