Warning: mostly me rambling about my exercise and food whilst in NY 😉
Thurs: 3 miles post work/pre-drive to Brooklyn. T brought our favorite gyros to eat before we hit the road (made it up in just over 4 hours).
Fri: 7 miles at the Long Beach Boardwalk before a full day of relaxing on the beach eating LI deli subs and drinking the new Coors Light Radlers (it’s good cheap bear I swear). Did a total of ~16miles with all the other walking involved with the day, including rallying to go to Manhattan for rooftop drinks followed by late night empanadas.
Sat: Spend the whole day at Coney Island (my first time ever). Watched the men’s and women’s Nathan’s hot dog eating contests. Ate a Nathan’s hot dog and fries, also ate White Castle, and had a rainbow italian ice! At Coney Island we went to the Sideshow, rode the Cyclone (it was amazeballs), went to the minor league Brooklyn Cyclones game and stayed for fireworks. Managed to rack up ~10 miles walking.
Sun: Brunch in Bushwick at this random dive bar (Tandem) then headed into Manhattan to aimless wander – Battery Park and South Street Seaport. Got a Mister Softee (I refused to have any other ice cream truck treats except for Mister Softee). Got in another ~7 miles walking. Drove back to DC in amazingly just over 4 hours (including EZpass drama – bastards).
Mon: Worked from home with a 10:30am “start time.” Quiet work day, really just Freddie hangout time. Kicked off week 3 of Marathon training with 3.1 sweaty ass miles.
