      (As a personal contribution to today’s NYC marathon excitement, I just may walk briskly to over to somewhere on the route to cheer a few on. At least *somewhat* briskly).

      Mile 23, running up an incline on 5th Avenue. Impressed crowd cheering them on. Me, I’m wondering if I should come back around the six hour mark to cheer on *my* aspirational people. 😁pic.twitter.com/9WkSPxqm9v

      Mile 24, and these people are still running uphill. (Meanwhile, I walked the hypotenuse between miles 23 and 24 so averaging things out for humanity.)pic.twitter.com/in3ptDRzzN

      One they’re still running. Some of them are talking to each other! Two, the bit right after mile 26 is an incline. WTF? Three, a guy just walked by to finish line with a big sign and flowers, getting ready to propose to runner 9X. (I’m walking even slower to manage the average).pic.twitter.com/PhiPnQ3seR

          That’s a wrap! The end of the NYC Marathon has reached the Upper East Side, Manhattan. 1st Avenue is gradually reopening to pedestrians and soon to vehicles. Please be guided by officers block to block as the Avenue fully reopens. pic.twitter.com/mUJ6xefW8a

          I saw somebody who had collapsed, about .2 miles from the marathon finish! Within sight! Man. He only had two cops around him, nobody medical, and it looked like he had hit the wall—not a heart attack or an injury. I really hope he got a sports drink or gel and walked to the end!

          That’s absolutely the worst! I used to run half and full marathons in Charlotte, NC and the last mile or so was always uphill! Hated it but the end was always exhilarating and tiring (brain Vs body)

          Yes it’s literally up a hill to the finish line! I remember it well but I was cruising along so well that I didn’t care the year I ran it. You just stare at the time clock and I knew I’d PR!

          I also run like hundreds of miles in Central Park that year so it was no surprise 😊
