RACE DAY

If you can make it out, it would be amazing to see you and for you to see how hard we have worked to make your donations worth it. Afterward, we can do brunch near the race finish. Details all below, or call Vincent at 917-660-2497 to coordinate.

Where to watch:

The Yahoo/Team-in-Training supporters will be in Central Park near 72nd St on the WEST side, which is when racers enter during the run. Click here for a map with watching points. There is a shaded area with benches facing the course between the course and the lake, just a large trellis.

After you see me enter, you can walk to the race finish area, which is very close by (another point on the linked map). I will try to find you by the BANDSHELL if not the race finish once I'm done.

Timing:

Based on my race times, I should be going by that area between 9:05 to 9:15am. Given my current state, I may be entering later than I expect. I know, it is early, but I promise it will be fun. I am getting to the race at 4:45am, jump into the hudson at 6:20am, bike until 9am and run until 10/10:15am (here is the course map).

How to spot me

I will be wearing a light purple Team In Training (TNT) tank top, black shorts, maybe a white yahoo cap and a very exhausted smile. There will be close to 400 people wearing the same TNT Shirt, just to let you know. Vincent will be carrying a sign and "good luck" balloon.

Brunch

At Arte Cafe at 11:15am. Call me or Vincent if you can make it.

Never would I have thought I could raise $3,000 for leukemia and lymphoma society. Our Yahoo team (39 people) have raised $195,000 and counting! I attached an article that highlights our training and accomplishments as a team, all in thanks to friends like you. THANK YOU and wish me luck!

In gratitude, Jeanne
