Midnight Run NYC ~ Welcome 2009.

December 31st, 2008

If your aspirations for 2009 include living a healthier and more frugal life, kick the year with a midnight run in Central Park.  Organized annually by the New York Road Runner’s Club, your host of the NYC Marathon and running groups and classes throughout the year.

The 4 mile course begins and ends at the Bandshell, mid park at 72nd Street. The race is preceded by dancing and a costume party.

Happy Holidays.

The holiday season

December 15th, 2008

Whether you are back to work, or looking for work to get back to, I hope you will find some joy in this holiday season. You won’t find it on the too busy paths along 5th and Madison Avenues, nor in the sale bins in all the department stores.

I hope you will find peace within by surrounding yourself with people you love.
