EDR #39: ”It’s just one long block party & five bridges”: Rebekah Kennedy and the New York City Marathon

Hello! And welcome to Everyday Runners Episode #39. 

This episode features Rebekah Kennedy, a second-time-round guest of EDR. Rebekah is a member of the Central Park Track Club and a friend of the show. 

I love the way Rebekah speaks about running and how she intertwines it with her memories of New York's geography and her knowledge of the city. 

In this episode she takes us on our tour of the city via the marathon course. I asked her the question of how it went and she narrated her experience with clear descriptions of the people, places, bridges, spectators and other competitors she engaged with along the way. Rebekah, also managed to run the course in a negative split, something that apparently isn't particularly common. 

I loved this conversation and I hope you enjoy the episode.
