Were sports jinxing a real thing, taking pre-orders on a book called “19-0″ as well as trying to trademark “19-0″ might make the list for the top 5 biggest jinxes ever. But hey, at least their coach didn’t leave his players on the field at the end of the game.
Update: Capitalism waits for no one. […]

An idea that Nuti and I had years ago

Idea: Live-streaming audio of sarcastic, cynical duo doing their own commentary for major sporting events. Mute TV, play stream instead. - John Gruber via Twitter
John Gruber of Daring Fireball echoes an idea that Nuti and I have been bandying about since we first moved to the city after college (circa 1998). Now that bandwidth […]
NYC Marathon done been run!
November 21, 2007
I wanted Alex to write the marathon post since it was his first marathon and I thought he would give you a fun perspective, but he’s been so swamped at work lately, it doesn’t seem like that’ll happen anytime soon. So here goes:
We finished the marathon! Yay! Which you probably already know from browsing flickr. […]
Finishing is your only fucking option

I also want to thank this guy, who we saw in Bay Ridge right when we got off the Verrazano, in Greenpoint (above) and in Central Park (below) with about 2 miles to go.

Check out this nifty custom map of the New York City Marathon route through the city. Use it to see where you’re going to catch the race with your bagels on Sunday morning. Stay tuned for further updates as to where you might catch Karen and I along the way.

Less than two weeks away…
October 24, 2007
And we are falling apart!
Earlier this week while moving something, Alex sprained his ankle. It seems to be getting slightly better, but with less than two weeks before he has to run 26.2 miles, he really needs to be fully recovered. He’s been religiously practicing R.I.C.E. (Rest, Ice, Compress, Elevate) and started to add some […]
26.2 miles? No problem….

I actually don’t have much to add about the Need for Speed race aside that it was awesome fun. Getting up at 4:15 isn’t sweet, but hanging out with a group of old and new friends was definitely great times.
Here Alex hands off the rfid “baton” bracelet to me. I love how serious he looks […]
Magic Beans

I picked up some of these Jelly Belly Sport Beans last week at our local running store, while waiting for Alex to ask the sales associates about his knees (because he trusts them more than his doctor apparently). I’ve tried some other sport bars and gels before races with mixed success. In general, they never […]
