NYC Marathon

Kisti ran in the NYC marathon (thanks to our best good friend Keith Meyer who works for Timex). She tricked Mike into doing some of the training with her-he actually got up to 14 miles before he bailed. Mike was no slouch though. He did bike spotting for the T.V. crew. He got to ride his bike all through NYC.

Post-race in Time Square. People kept stopping Kisti and congratulating her.

Kisti outside of Central Park with her medal. We had to walk 25 blocks from Central Park to the hotel-which was very painful for Kisti. Mike offered to put her on his bike and push her. Kisti stopped twice for snacks and water during their walk.

Kisti was glad to be done with her third and final marathon. No one believes her but Mike, at least he hopes it is true, those 14 mile training runs are brutal.

At the finish line! Mike had a press pass so he could get to the finish line and wait for Kisti. Marci gave Mike live updates via text so he knew when she was coming.

Mike rode his bike along the marathon route to give real-time updates to the T.V. crew. His job was to follow Edward Norton. Mike finally found him an hour after he had finished the race.

Mike with his radio and headphones. While he was riding spectators kept yelling at him that he was cheating. They were so loud he could hear it with the sound-proof headphones on. Kisti couldn't hear her IPOD over the crowds either. Crazy New Yorkers.

Mike first NYC taxi ride. He realized that his dad missed his calling as a NYC taxi cab driver. He would have been the best with his propensity to slam on the gas and the brakes and tailgait.

Mike had fun driving though Time Square. His love of driving in NYC ended when he had to drive around 2 miles to get from the parking garage to the hotel, which was one block away.
