Calling All Big Hearted New Yorkers,
The NYC Marathon is this coming Sunday, November 1st!
Though many envision 26.2 miles filled with enthusiasm, cheer and race support, the less fast runners experience a very different tone. The back of the pack are left trekking through a marathon ghost town of sorts, with only remnants of the treatment received by those who came before them.
So many worthy marathoners who run beyond a 15 minute mile are sadly exposed to watching the hydration and first aid stations, chip trackers and mile markers taken down and carted away, while they run. Though it's heartbreaking and even humiliating, these athletes hold their heads high, put one foot in front of the other, and finish what they started.
Please join me in celebrating these unsung heroes. A small group of NuYu Revolution Members and instructors will be at mile 23 (5th Ave. & 97th St.), from 4:30-5:30 handing out water and snacks. Most of these incredible marathoners will have been running since 11 AM, without supplements, since mile 18. I'm bringing supplies, but more are welcome.
Please notify me if you will be joining us....
Warm Regards,
Susan Rappaport
