Pulaski Bridge

I was at my old...

What was it? somewhere around mile 13 the pulaski bridge where they're not a lot of there's no crowd because you're on a bridge there's no crowd on the 59th street bridge which is to me like a four mile bridge it's so steep and long and soul-sucking in the new york marathon you get rewarded by then being on first avenue in manhattan where the crowds are so loud it's called the wall of sound that's just amazing But if you're looking for a time to be on your phone and to read stuff, the bridges, because you go over a bunch of bridges, the Verrazano Narrows Bridge, but it's pretty loud at that point because the race is just starting and there's a lot of footsteps.

But the Pulaski Bridge is the halfway bridge.

You go up the First Avenue Bridge, the Willis Avenue Bridge, then the Madison Avenue Bridge to get back from the Bronx to Manhattan.

It's just a lot of bridges because you're going through five boroughs.

OK, so let's go through the bridges.

Halfway point, the Pulaski Bridge.

Probably the...

I mean, the mayor of New York will probably hate me for saying this.

How are my legs feeling? How are my lungs feeling? Because if you don't feel like you can run that same pace the second half, you gotta change, you gotta, You got to change your pace pretty quickly if you want to finish well.

Yes.

And for everyone out there, what advice would you give them hitting that Pulaski Bridge? Is it five or six bridges? Now I can't even remember.

I think it's five, right? There we go.

And then you go over the Queensborough at a certain point.

You go over the Pulaski Bridge.

You go over a bridge from Manhattan into the Bronx and back again.

So there's a lot of bridges.

And everybody, so the middle of the pack or the back of the pack, the same thing.

If you can just hold on to the best that you can, feeling good towards some bridge, Pulaski Bridge, I believe also is what it's called.

That's in the

Bronx, right?

There you go.

And then all of a sudden you're talking about experiences of the place, the Pulaski bridge at mile 13, or making your way through Brooklyn and Williamsburg and the and the neighborhoods and everyone's cheering there or working your way up First Avenue or going through Mile 20 in the Bronx and the clubs that are out there cheering people on.

The Percy Sutton Harlem Miles, you know, as you make your way down Fifth Avenue, you're like, oh my God, it's still climbing.

We're still climbing.

So you hit the halfway point in true New York City fashion.

It's a bridge.

This one's the Pulaski Bridge.

I find this one sneaky hard.

We are here at mile 13.1 of the TCS New York City Marathon.

We got the Pulaski Bridge right here, and the New York City Marathon is the best day in New York City.
