Running in new york

Guess this post is a little overdue as i was away in the states for my work and vacation. I will recount some of the runs i have in new york.

Due to the pack visitation schedule i was only able to make 1 run in New york Central park. Central park famed for some of the setting of hollywood movie is actually quite huge. dotted with lakes and reservoir. Lotsa ang mo hang out here to suntan and do sports .

Was the 2nd last day of my stay, i made the effort to wake up early and head out for the run. crossing 3 blocks to central park. Temperature was a hot 30 degrees , weather service announce that heatwave will be in new york. But i still went ahead with the run. The roads inside central park is closed for joggers during the morning. So its rather safe to run and cycle and just about any activity. But take note that cyclist will be on the left side of the road. so stay on the right! i was reminded that by a friendly runner.

water point are located everywhere in the park so its alright not to bring any hydration equipment with you. and when you are lost.. maps and location board can be found.

Some of the interesting sights you can find in the park is this reservoir! breathtaking

Facility around central park includes tennis courts , baseball ground, skating rink, swimming pool and boat house.

a complete loop around central park is about 9km, which took me amost an hour to finish running. The heat was so hot almost melted, after the run i headed straight for the juice store to get my energy back.

But the experience having a jog there is something i will remember always
