Last Saturday morning I had to volunteer to help with a race in Central Park in order to secure my entry to the NY Marathon. The race was a 60K -- over 37 miles. We had to be there at 6:30 a.m., and I actually got there early, about 6:15. It was still dark when I arrived, but as I waited, the sun rose. Dawn over Central Park, and it was beautiful. I have lived in New York almost 17 years and never seen dawn in Central Park. It was beautiful -- oranges and purples and blues playing over the trees. Anyway this is a picture I snapped with my Blackberry over the reservoir, looking west to east.
Happy Thanksgiving to all!
That is gorgeous! Thanks for sharing! Have a wonderful holiday!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great picture, thanks!
ReplyDeletei've run on the reservoir at sunrise/sunset quite a bit and love looking at the skyline then-my wallpaper on my blackberry is actually a picture of the skyline at sunset looking from the rez :)
ReplyDeleteYou're right, that is absolutely breathtaking.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you had never seen sunrise in Central Park before! Glad you finally did. Some of my fondest memories of the city come right around dawn, doing intervals around the Reservoir.
ReplyDelete(Oh, and if you've never run into a sunset on the George Washington Bridge, you should really try to make that happen too.)
Oh that is lovely! What a crazy long race. Maybe for us one day???
ReplyDeleteHope you had a great Thanksgiving!
Thanks for your note - awesome picture, and sounds like a great race, too!
ReplyDeleteGreat picture. 60k race in central park, that's a lot of loops
