When I discovered that there was a way for my clients to pay nothing for their attorney in the real estate transaction, yet get a qualified, seasoned attorney to represent them- I got excited! This is a wonderful “freebie” for people working at corporations, or any company that decides to participate in what’s called aRead more

It is marathon season again, and I’m off running around Manhattan and beyond. This year I am running the Marine Corps Marathon on October 28th in Washington DC. I am really excited to see Our Nation’s Capitol at an 8:30/mile pace (or faster) and run my 20th marathon. I can’t believe that when I startedRead more

In these blog posts I often write about my favorite runs around the city. On March 19th, I ran the New York City Half Marathon, which I had not done since 2007. This year’s run was a totally reconsidered course, starting in Brooklyn and finishing in Central Park. Running over the Manhattan Bridge into ManhattanRead more

For those following this monthly post about running around New York City, I encourage you to email me with suggestions about places to explore. We are planning a run from Manhattan to CitiField, as well as some running around Staten Island, which is only 8 miles from North to South in certain places. But forRead more

The US Open usually means two things: first, a heat wave surely will be upon New York City, and second, summer is over. This year, the US Open came and went with almost entirely pleasant weather, a shocker for August and early September. That the Mets in nearby Citi Field have been playing so poorlyRead more

It could be difficult to find a New Yorker who does not know a runner of last weekend’s Brooklyn Half Marathon. 40,000 runners took this 13.1 mile stroll through Prospect Park, then down Ocean Parkway to Coney Island. (I had some fun covering that course a bit in a recent post!) This year’s race enjoyedRead more
