Marathon Viewing Info and the Final Countdown

I thought I'd include here some info on catching the marathon if you're in NYC and following along with me if you're not.

For those not in the city, you should be able to track my progress at the marathon website at http://www.nycmarathon.org/home/index.php
I think you'll need either my last name, or my race #, which is 45212

For those in NYC, see the following pages for viewing recommendations:

NYC Marathon Spectator Guide (family and friends--there's another section on seeing the leader, on the page before this): http://www.ingnycmarathon.org/about/spectator3

and the marathon arrival times guide (I'll be running around 10-12 minute mile pace, I hope!): http://www.ingnycmarathon.org/entrantinfo/arrivaltimes.php

NYC Subway marathon guide: http://www.mta.info/nyct/maps/Marathon06.pdf

and the course map: http://www.ingnycmarathon.org/about/coursemap.pdf

Also, Adam and I ran 8 miles today at about 69+ minutes. I feel about as ready as I'll ever be to tackle this!

ooh, how cool that we can track your progress even if we're not in NYC! I'm so doing that. oh, and I second will's comments on enjoying your blog--it is pretty cool to be able to look back and compare your runs now to those in July. you've made amazing progress--though of course I still think running six miles is a feat in and of itself!
