1. Heading to bed, and all the pasta in Manhattan has been eaten, it is only eight hours until the TCS NYC Marathon.
2. RunBlogRun will be in the Media Center for the NYC Marathon!
3. We will have writers on the course, looking for unusual stories.
3. Found the www.FurnishedQuarters.com apartment quite easily and love it! Centrally located, just 2 miles from the Tavern on the Green and NYRR Media Pavilion for the 2025 NYC marathon! Our apartment has two baths, two bedrooms, and is situated on East 69th Street in a wonderful neighborhood just fifteen minutes from the NYC Marathon finish line and media center! When I arrived, I just went across the street, purchased some water and food at #WholeFoods and I was set. With Furnished Quarters, you unpack your clothes in. you furnished apartment and then, get the coffee and food!
