One of the nations largest marathon's is being run tomorrow (Nov 6th), the ING New York City marathon. New York city is only three hours away. I would love to run this marathon someday. The entry fee runs about $200 - so it is not cheap.
There is a female runner named Shalene Flanigan who is making her marathon debut. On the men's side I will be tracking a runner named Galen Rupp. An Ethiopian runner named Haile Gebrselassie is my favorite to win this race. Update: He dropped out at mile 16 and retired from running altogether.
I am not going to run a marathon in 2011 - however, I will most likely make a Boston qualifier marathon attempt in 2012. If I am successful, I will run the Boston marathon to celebrate my 50th birthday in 2013.
