Logistics

If anyone has read this, you may well be asking "Why is she flying to NY to sign up for a race?" Well, it's because volunteers get preference over online registration. We'll get a couple of hours head start on signing up before they open it online on Monday morning - in fact, this year, it may well fill up before it is scheduled to open online. Plus, I want the emotional 'push' that I hope to get from watching the race the day before.

In case you don't know, the race itself is pretty simple:
  1. Swim 2.4 miles (3.9 km)
  2. Bike 112 miles (180 km)
  3. Run a marathon (42 km)
in less than 17 hours.
