    That intro was hilarious! I love the invite to have people join you. Getting me ready to run 36 miles for my 36th birthday this weekend

    You’re demonstrating why I usually just go to Central Park to run. It’s so much cognitive load to run through the city streets. But it’s a great idea for someone visiting!

      Haha yeah that would’ve been wayyyy easier - but less all-encompassing 🇺🇸

      @rhuarcaran3427 Před 5 měsíci +2

      Yeah, running is actually a great activity for those on vacation to really take in the surroundings. My most vivid vacation memories are of the runs I've done, for example I did a midnight half marathon in Venice Italy, I still mentally return to that run as a source of inner peace/meditation.

    • @jasonbeedon9867

      Yes, exactly. I usually try to find long runs where I don’t have to think about where I’m going…or get run over by a car!

    My friend and I did the same run the Spring of our senior year of college, 2022! Stopped at the same porta potties you did at the 4 minute mark. There were so many times we got re-routed by construction. The worst was all the stretches we would run down, realize we couldn't continue and have to turn back around. Ran into the same problem with the trail abruptly stopping towards the Northwest corner of the island. We ended up hiking down on the rocks by the water. Right before that we were blasting "The Climb" by Miley Cyrus on that huge hill haha. We were expecting a nice 50K but ended up going somewhere around 38 miles as well. What a great experience! Got me feeling all nostalgic. Glad you enjoyed! :)

    I thought this was even cooler when you said you were settling in for 10 mm. Accessible adventure, real people could do, and did do with you. Made me actually think, yes I could do this!

    My uncle lived in Manhatten for 50+ yeas before his passing in 1999. I live here in Miami, where Uncle Don grew up in the 1930's & 40's ....he lived in the Murray Hill neighborhood in Manhatten at 201 E 34th street Apt 15-A (the 15th floor in a 15 floor bldg)

    Completely irrelevant to the video but Merry Christmas Fergus
    The other week I ran my first Ultra, and I mentioning this because I attribute my success to you. I used the squashies as a source a fuel, and mate, they’re great.
    Gonna enjoy this banger today too ❤

    You're kidding. I should be going to the gym but I'm going to watch this instead. This Musselburgh transplant would have bought you a drink if I'd known you were here :)
    I could have spared you all those navigation snafus too :-) Oustanding effort from everyone. Envious of your stamina and knees. The East Side is tricky but there's only really one place you can go wrong on the West Side... and you found it! Me too! Brilliant video. Good luck with whatever's next.
    (And well done Andrew!)

    Sorry to have missed this, but good to know that you had plenty of excellent company along your route. I hope you recovered by doing some suitably touristy things? Come back and visit again - we'll find some fun new challenges for you here.

  • @doctorducky6403
    @doctorducky6403 Před 5 měsíci

    Perhaps you made the same mistake as I did coming south from Inwood Hill Park: a "no public access sign" that tells of a missed turn a mile or so back (the intended route follows Empire State Trail signs from the bottom of Dyckman Street up a ramp to beside the Henry Hudson Parkway). We carried on regardless, and the...er..."trail run" between the railway and the river down to the GWB was perhaps the highlight of the day.
    Hoping to run 50K over all the bridges, from GWB to Brooklyn, in February...

    • @AlistairNY
      @AlistairNY Před 5 měsíci

      Right, that's about the only mistake you can make on the west side and we've all made it :) Good luck on your bridge run. I've run them all individually or in out and back pairs. Randall's Island was awfully confusing :)
