It’s not about the clock: NYC marathon 2010
THE NEW YORK MARATHON is the largest in the world, with 45,000+ runners. So everything about it is complicated, commercial and highly organized, from the application process (a lottery that draws 124,000 applicants) to the marshalling of runners at the start line (into almost a dozen separate “waves” and “colours”). You have to go with the flow and trust that they know what they’re doing, because you’re a very small fish in a gigantic school.
I’m Art Kilgour, a graphic designer by day, but I got my start as a writer, in the journalistic vein. So this blog is a continuing outlet for that part of my brain. I write about my passions, my family, and other stuff that interests me. Enjoy!
