"A 10-mile bike ride from my place and totally worth it. Uphill going back into Brooklyn though. The smaller snack shack past the bathrooms has craft beer, Ample Hill ice cream, and empty picnic tables"

"Make reservations early in the run for the best seats. Be a mensch and take a refurbished seat for $100. NFP'S damaged by Sandy got bupkis. Give early and often."
