summer streets


This morning I actually went into Manhattan on a weekend. For three Saturday mornings over the summer, New York shuts down traffic on Park Avenue from 72nd street down to the Brooklyn Bridge. Since Erik's in Vegas and I actually don't have any major plans this weekend, I decided to check it out. It was so cool to run past all the huge buildings and around Grand Central; the whole thing felt like a free road race. Plus, there were fun activities (free yoga classes and bike rentals!) and rest stops (free water and treats!) every few miles. I wound up knocking out 9 miles because I was so absorbed in soaking it all in. Chalk up one more reason why I love New York!
