Hi Team!

I currently live in San Mateo, CA and am working in NYC every other week for the next 3-4 months. I will be training for the Rome '08 Marathon (an alumni from the '07 Rome Marathon!) and would love to connect with NYC Team Members for walk and walk/run training. Any suggestions or takers out there?

Thanks,

Marjorie McCamey

Yes, hello Marjorie! Where are about you staying in NYC? What side of town? I have a sister-in-law who is a very dedicated Freds' Team marathoner. (If your not familiar with Freds' Team, it is very similar to TNT, except they are in existance in NYC as all their funding goes back to Sloan Kettering Hospital for Cancer research). Anyway, when she is not training with Freds' she sometimes runs with the NY Road Runners Club. Go to NYRR.ORG to find out more info. ALSO- please be careful when running in NYC- be safe & alert, this is coming from a "native NY'er" here.

If your interested I can ask her to suggest a few safe routes, as I know she often runs in Central Park as well.

You should ask your run manager to put you in touch with the TNT chapter in NY, which will allow you to tag along with their training runs.
