Pre-race advice so you can own the streets tomorrow! nycmarathon
If you’ve got it in you, “go fishing!” Cast out that invisible hook and gradually reel in that runner in the pink shirt who’s been singing Miley Cyrus for miles. Then focus on your next fish, and the next. Every time you pass a runner , you gain a little more energy to push forward. It keeps your mind focused and engaged while you roll through beautiful Central Park.
When you reach mile 25, set yourself up for the final two right turns, and run it to the finish. Take it all in because there’s nothing quite like finishing a marathon in New York City’s heart center.After you finish, you’ll get your medal, take your photo, and go on what may feel like the walk of torture , but it’s actually a blessing in disguise. Walking postrace will help flush the lactic acid in your body and bring you gradually back to a resting state.
If you end up on the lower section of the Verrazano Bridge, beware of running on the outside of the pack. You may see a bunch of guys peeing off the side of the Verrazano Bridge and quickly came to two conclusions: First, people are doing the same thing on the span above you, and, second, that isn’t rain.Try not to run alone and find someone who goes at the same pace as you in order to support each other through the finish line.There are so many screaming spectators on the main thoroughfares that the quiet on the bridges may come as a shock.
This is a marathon to run for the experience, which is unlike any other. Enjoy it, soak it in, look around, keep your head up, do NOT wear earphones. There is no other race like it. Enjoy every mile.The bars near the finish line fill up in a hurry, so you might want to hop on the subway and go a couple stops away before toasting your finish.
