Introduction
Looking for some training partners. Running alone can get so boring sometimes...!
What's your race pace?
5k PR pace is 6:14. And it just goes up from there. Consistently sub-7 for shorter distances (10k or less).
On your training runs, how many miles do you run?
Anywhere from 5-15. Trying to build my endurance to run longer more regularly. Hitting weekly averages of 40-55 mpw at the moment training for LI Marathon in May.
Where do you do most of your training?
Mostly around the city. So many bridges, so many options! Always up for exploring new routes.

"Wow, I did not intend to scare everyone with that elevation map! I just wanted everyone to have an idea what to expect. It really is not that bad. You can all do this! Just take it in as any other race. ..."
