The NYC Insider's guide to the NYC running is inspired by the thoughts and experiences of a New Yorker who has run the NYC Marathon twice and is now training for 5 Half Marathons - one in each of the five boroughs.

Oh, The Hypocrisy!
Throughout my son's doubleheader in Central Park yesterday I found myself asking folks to stay off the ball field. The games were on the fields on the Great Lawn, which many people use as a picnic area and playground, despite the 6 overlapping baseball diamonds which, when the lawn is open, are almost always in use on the weekends. I think everyone believes that they have a right to be there -- it is public property after all -- and they do, to some extent. But they also need to respect, for safety reasons and for common courtesy, that the kids have a game going on.
So I suppose it was a bit mean of me not to similarly respect a photo shoot along the East River Promenade today -- I ran right through their shot instead of waiting or taking a detour.
