- I ran the NYC Half Marathon and oh boy! This was a race for the books. This course is absolutely EPIC. I also pulled a 5k PR at the end of it (25:30 when my best STANDALONE 5k is 25:50) without even intending it, since I was treating this as a training run.
I think I am ready to slay April Fools in AC in two weeks!
Thanks to my coach Paul for this fantastic training block @thedevrunner DevRunner

I am a 49 year old woman with aspirations of becoming a much faster runner (yes, one of those who would LOVE to qualify for Boston), who is a content creator by night and a sales rep at a niche software company by day.
I am a transplant from Madrid, Spain, into the NE USA, and am married to a classical composer. Also, our son is studying to be an Aerospace Engineer, and our dog... well, our dog is just our spoiled little fur baby.

Great racing and excellent filming, Suz!
I wanted to say you couldn’t have asked for better conditions, but that opinion was formed while watching in a balmy 73°f office.
I suppose it could have been slightly warmer, especially considering the water was freezing at the aid stations! 😂
Also, I was slightly worried when you threw away your layers so early because I figured you’d be freezing at the end of the race, but it appears this wasn’t your first time in cold weather and you thought to pack another jacket for the finish. Good thinking! 🧠
What a gorgeous course! After watching I can say this race is definitely on my list!
What an ideal training run to set you up beautifully for the AC HM! 💪🏽
Yes. There was even black ice on a portion of the FDR and they were asking runners to be careful.
I LOVED this course. It is so much better than the marathon in my opinion. It goes through so many highlights of Brooklyn and Manhattan!
And that yellow jacket is 50% down and it comes with a bag where you can put it and compact it nicely with a drawstring. It fits perfectly in a checked bag with plenty room to spare for other items. It's a gamechanger.
Thanks for posting Matt, and for watching the vid twice 😀
@@IRunThings So THATS what is was! 😂 As I was running through that section I could feel my feet very slightly slipping (I was about an hour ahead of your group) and for a moment I thought I was slipping in Gatorade or something (just very slight movement under foot) and just kept my pacing very small, then after 20 seconds or so it was ok. Odd as it was in the sunshine, not shade but there was fluid everywhere from the water stops and I guess the cold concrete just started to freeze the fluid over. Great video, and well done. I travelled from a little island called Guernsey to take part. I’ve done some lovely events in the UK (most through London) but New York was very, very special. Also it’s nice for a half marathon to get a cool route. A lot of them always seem the get the poor deal compared to the full marathons (most of the Rome Half Marathon for example is through a business estate! 😂). Well done again and great video! 👍🏻
My favorite comment, "I almost don't want this to be over." Spoken like the true runner you are, my friend!
That's how you know you are having the time of your life 🙂
Awesome video! Congrats! I will be running it in 2 weeks!😊
It's an awesome race!!!
Loved the first person experience! Great run Suzie! Perfectly paced for a training run. You are looking great for April 2nd!
I am hoping so!!! I really want to nail this upcoming April fools half. And the weather is going to be perfect, seems like
Great video!
Thank you!!!
Wow what an amazing video thanks for sharing this great inspiration 🎉
Thanks to you for watching!
Awesome race Suzie! That was fun to watch. 6 more days till the AC Half! I will try & keep an eye out for you again ! So far, weather looks pretty good ! 🙏
Hope to 'run into' you!! What pace are you aiming for?
@IRunThings I was thinking about going for a PR, which would be anything quicker than 2 hrs & 7 min. But.......I am running it with a friend who I may stick with the whole time. He's aiming for a 2 hr & 15 min time. So we will see! Maybe I can push him & we can both PR. You're going for a sub 2 correct?
Yes sirrr! I seemed to remember you were kind of in that same 'pace ballpark ' as me haha. I did 2h3 last year. So we are close to each other.
I'll be there with my friend Lynn but we are each running our own race.
@IRunThings I definitely think you're quicker than me! Sub 2 is my ultimate goal. Good luck, I know you will crush it & I will be looking forward to the AC video ! 😊
That looks like an amazing course, well done😊
It really is! Thanks for watching
Fantastic! Loved this! One day I’ll get out there
I cant emphasize enough how much I loved this race Dan!!!
Congratulations! Awesome day for running fast. I couldn't feel my feet for the first 2 miles. Faster that it was smooth sailing.
I know the sentiment. My toes were super stiff but then I warmed up and it was pretty easy to keep running and just have fun!!!
Great video 😊thanks from Germany 🇩🇪 I ran last October London Halfmarathon and in January Miami Halfmarathon 🥳 it was a pleasure 😊 how is the weather in New York? Is it very cold 🤔 and windy 🌬️ thanks 🙏 for responding and keep on running 👍😎👍
NYC is cold in the winter and hot in the summer. And humid every day of the year 😀 what are you running here? The marathon in November? The marathon is hit or miss, same as the Half in March. You have to keep checking the weather and even then it might change on you the morning of and do a 180.
@@IRunThingsthanks 😊I would like to run 🏃♂️ the Halfmarathon in your nice video 👍 I read that’s sometimes very windy 🌬️ and ice on the streets 😮 but anyway I will do it, there are warm clothes 👌 next February I will enjoy the Las Vegas Halfmarathon, wish you a great day 😀
EPIC!!! Thank you so much for sharing with me. I don’t know how you juggle the camera, GU, etc while running…I’d be dropping everything 😂. I love getting to see the course from your perspective. Literally revamping my race calendar to add this race in 2025! Looking forward to your review of your new camera. Have a great week 🏃🏽♀️💪❤️
It only takes a bit of practice... 🙂 and it's super cool to have the vlogs to share, and also for myself to rewatch later.
This race course is nicer than the marathon in my opinion. The marathon goes through all 5 boroughs but it doesn't hit these highlights
You couldn’t stop smiling. Makes me miss running in NYC. The camera is awesome. Now time to get that PB in Jersey.
Yeah. It was a great race and I had lots of fun! Thanks for watching!
Loved this so much!! I relived running the race watching this. I didn't want the race to end!!
Me neither. I was having so much fun I didn't want it to end
What a great race! So much to look at through the entire course! And bless those spectators for standing out in the cold just to cheer for everyone! ❤
That wind sounded brutal! But you kept up a great pace and really looked like you were loving the experience. I would have been so tempted to stop and take a billion pictures on Broadway! 😂 Thanks so much for letting me see this one early!
It is the best half marathon course I've run on -so far- in terms of highlights. Even better than the Disney Half. And usually they get more spectators, with the wind it felt like 15F and there was black ice in some parts. Water was semi frozen in some stations... so naturally there were not many people braving the temps. But the crowds were FANTASTIC.
What a great time you had Suzie! And the new camera is fab. Thanks for sharing it all. Well done 👌
Thanks!!! I can't wait to do a review of this camera. It's fantastic
I'll have to do the 6 mile central park loop soon. I just checked my Strava, it was almost 4 years ago that I did it. So you poked my nostalgia.
I love running in Central Park. I guess it would be more accurate to say that I ♥️ Central Park. Period. Walking it or running it. I think it's a blessing for folks in Manhattan
@@IRunThings as a retired dude I can pick a delightful time like 11am on a Tuesday.
Yeap. Lucky you!! 🥰
Enhorabuena Susiiii por ser finisher en este prestigiosa 1/2 maratón de NYC, me ha impresionado el gran ambiente en las calles, espectacular!! 😅🏃♀👏👏❤
Si. Y hacia 10 bajo cero eh??? Con viento. Los espectadores fabulosos!
Espectacular,,, gracias por compartirlo,,, para la primera vez en la carrera por favor cuáles son los tips, sobretodo en ropa , pues vamos de clima tropical (Colombia) donde no hay estaciones a correr en NY
Hace frío en Marzo todavia. Frío al que no estas acostumbrada. Puedo hacer un video.... te va a tocar comprar ropa que no vas a volver a utilizar
First! 😂….I’m laughing because I got to watch this video two days before anyone else in the world!!
It’s like I’m the president of SUZIE’S fan club! 🫡 Membership has its perks! 😂Seriously, Suz, maybe it’s time to start a fan club! 🤔
What an amazing course and good job turning your race into a video! Epic!
I was worried when you threw away the jacket because of how cold you’d be at the finish but I guess you used bag check for your yellow puffer!
Frozen water at the aid stations!! What? Insane!
This looks like a must-do race! Running over the bridge and through Times Square looked like an amazing experience!
Solid running, Suz! This was a perfect training run for you to enjoy the whole event! 🎉 It was extra special you recorded them calling your name at the finish! 🎤 🏃🏻♀️💨
Yes. That yellow puffer is 50% down so it's quite warm and it fits pretty much anywhere. It comes with a tiny drawstring bag that keeps it very compact. I usually keep it in the checked bag when it's cold
Thanks for watching Matt and being the first. This is an epic epic race!! So much fun and I learned a lot about myself. For example. I learned that if I don't pay attention to the watch I run pretty fast! I clocked a 7:15 and a couple of barely over 8 min miles at the end! When I was going uphill on 7th Avenue towards Central Park. I have NEVER run that fast, not even in a standalone mile.
I loved that!
First: the Go2 is a fantastic, simple piece of kit... but this X3 is a different class! Vivid - Times Square with its huge screen video advertisng and the view from Brooklyn Bridge were particularly outstanding.
So immersive! I felt as if I was by your side (where's my medal 😄?) + great audio.... Wow! I WANT ONE... 😁
You were spot on - as you said *a training run* but negative splits for your 5ks and you were overtaking so many folk by the finish 👍 always a good sign of precise pacing.
Again top running!
Yes. I agree re: go2 and X3. I carried my Go2 with me just in case because I am very familiar with it and I wasn't sure if the battery in the x3 would hold on given how cold it was. But I filmed everything on the X3 with battery to spare and room to spare. It's fun to edit on it too. Every video basically turns into multiple videos because it films 360 degrees around you.
And I was happy with my pacing. I think given how I was feeling I could have run this in my 1h57 goal, even with the hills. I was reigning myself back the whole race except after Times Square. Then I was so happy running i wasn't even looking at the watch.
Thanks for watching and for your support 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
@@IRunThings
My pleasure!
Your dedication and enthusiasm is great to see 😁
Thanks!! I love running. It's easy to apply yourself to something you love doing
Love this!!! I enjoyed it with my morning coffee ❤. How are you liking the new camera? Your footage was great & definitely going to be adding this to my race calendar for 2025! Thank you for sharing your running journey & for all the time and thought you put into your videos!
Thanks for commenting again April. I had the mishap with publishing the video this morning and it deleted all comments for some weird reason.
I love this camera. It's a true step up from the prior one.
@@IRunThings I thought I forgot to push send 🤣
No. It was there and I answered lol. But later on YT 'ate' it
Bonito recorrido y bonito video, pero yo hasta que no conectéis la calefacción no vuelvo por allí.😂
Jajaja!!! Nos podria Haber hecho buenisimo eh? No se sabe nunca. 🙂
Hello! How are you? I am David and I am from Colombia, I would like to know where I could register for the NY Half Marathon in 2025. Thank you very much!
If you go to nyrr.org you will find all of their races listed. There's a lottery so pay attention to when it opens. It tends to be around early November. Usually right after NYC Marathon. But that could change. Follow nyrr on Instagram, they will post there too.
Congratulations! Thx for the video
Thanks so much for watching and commenting
You did a great job, and the views were AMAZING! Living in the middle of nowhere makes it difficult for me to even imagine that type of skyline.
Thanks T!! The first time I saw the skyline of Manhattan I was in AWE. My jaw dropped and stood open for a long while. It's quite something.
Congratulations Suzie! It looked amazing 😊
Thanks so much for watching and commenting
Congrats Suzie! Excellent training run - NYC is the best! Looks like you didn't work too hard so coach should be happy :)
I would say he is, yes!!! We'll dig deeper on next week's livestream
Ha I like how the guy in front of you at the water station, “it was like a slushy”.
It was so cold there was black ice in some parts of the course.
Great video Suzi. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks to you for watching and commenting
@@IRunThings Also, you looked really strong, even though it was a training run.
@@marnyharrison9176 I am glad it looked that way. I felt strong! 😀
Thanks for allowing me to relive this. My legs and feet were so cold I felt unstable and was paying more attention to the road as to not trip on a pothole that I missed so much!
Aww I am sorry to hear that. But glad this helps you remember it. Was this your first time running it? It was mine
@@IRunThings Yes, first time. After about 3 miles I was warm.
I find that my toes take the worst end of the bargain in such cold temps. My body is fine but my poor toea..toes... I couldn't feel them till mile 3
@@IRunThings And I had toe warmers in my bag and forgot to bring them.
I find them hard to run with.
Great video. Thank you
Thanks for watching and commenting 🙂
Awesome very motivating 👍👍👍👍
Thanks for watching and commenting 🙂
Great job! Looks fun.
It was fun! Thanks for watching Dan!
Thanks
Oh man!!! You are the bomb. Thanks SO much!!!
Greats race !! that was super cold day in NY.
Yes it was indeed! Did you run it?
@@IRunThings yes I did 1:40:37
@@teeramate congratulations!!! That's a speedy pace! Good for you 🥰🥰🥰
Where is the starting point? Staten?
Brooklyn, about three blocks from Prospect Park
The marathon starts in Staten Island though
Where did that come from?? I guess you need to do a 10-mile warmup before your next 5k time trial.🤣Awesome race, Suzie!
I know!!! So weird right? At first I thought Garmin had to be wrong because how the heck did I pull a 7:16 min mile?!?
@@IRunThings Not to take away from your fantastic effort at all, but I wonder if there might have been a few feet of elevation drop through there. That's a huge deal for me especially when my legs are almost ready to drop off. But then I'm a lot heavier and I really feel every foot of up or downhill. I do think that the tendency of experienced runners is to start too slowly in a 5k, compared to beginners who start way too fast and blow up right away. One way or another, you know that you have that in you now. I'm looking forward to more great reports!
I wondered that same thing but my fastest miles started on 7th Avenue and that is all uphill. There is a tiny downhill that lasts maybe 400 meters in Central Park and that's already mile 12 in the race but because I ended up really doing almost 14 miles on my garmin it's already mile 13.
@@IRunThings It terrific that you were able to do that, however it happened. It seems like something you can build on now that you've experienced it. I can't wait to see what you do in the next one, "the real one."😆
I cant wait either!!! Thanks for the support M.E.
First!
🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
Ugh, @deadbuck73! I commented “first” before the screen had loaded and then saw you beat me by 7 minutes. 😂
You gotta love technology. ❤️
😂 these comment counts are all messed up lately! The most important thing is that we are here to see Suzie kickin’ butt! Have an awesome day!!!!
That’s the second most important thing. The most important thing is always being first in arbitrary contests that no one knows they’re entered in. 😂
