Central Park Half Marathon - New York, NY - February 25, 2024

This is my 2nd year in participating in this running event. But, instead of running in the half marathon, I ended up doing the 5k instead. One reason is that I was not as well trained to do the half marathon. Both my friend and I opt for having a less grueling run and at the same time enjoy the winter visit to New York City. The weather was crisp, tons of fellow runners heading to the start line and looking forward to starting a morning run around New York's Central Park. I love watching people and supporters taking in the occasion. People are generally friendly and show a lot camaraderie. Thankfully, I was to finish this easy 5k run in just over 30 minutes, and I could take in the rest of the morning relaxing and enjoying New York City on a Sunday.

This running route required at least 3 laps around Central Park, ...

Below are my before 11/23 and after 1/2024 photos between months. I think I still need more work. So as of late, I've started to go to the gym every weekday morning to run on the treadmill for about 30 minutes or about 2 miles. On Mondays and Fridays, I'll do a 24 Hour Fitness BodyPump workout for about an hour with free weights in a gym class. Then on Saturdays when I'm free, I'll do a long run, 3-6 miles. Nutrition has been much more promising, lots of fruits and more vegetables in my diet. Every chance I get in each meal, greens or a vegetable has to be on my plate. So far, this has...
