Sunset from Astoria Park
I tend to go back and forth on whether I prefer to run before or after work – before work means I can go out after work while after work means I get to sleep in. But when I do run after work, I always make sure it gets me to sunset while looking across the East River. Look at the photo and you’ll know what I mean.

The National (and Friends)
To close out their final night of a six-night run at The Beacon Theatre, The National invited a few of their closest friends to the stage where they led a group sing-along of “Vanderlyle Crybaby Geeks” with the audience.

R.I.P., Hot Doug’s, 2004-2014
With the devastating news yesterday that Hot Doug’s will be closing in October, I felt it only fitting to pay tribute to them with photos of their delicious delicious sausages.

Pittsburgh Marathon: Mission Accomplished!
My training didn’t go as well as I’d hoped – a brutal winter which forced me to run on a treadmill way too often combined with the usual gauntlet at work – so I had tempered my hopes at a PR in yesterday’s Pittsburgh Marathon. But I’d be lying if I say I didn’t see my first half time of 2:05(isn) and thought that besting my previous best of 4:14:00 was possible. Alas, it was not meant to be as I eventually forced myself into a slower pace and settled for a decent 4:16:20 which was still better than the 4:20:00 or so I thought I’d clock in at going into the day.

Pittsburgh from Mount Washington
Writing this while sitting at LGA for a flight to Pittsburgh, I thought now would be a good time to unearth a photo from my first trip ever there. Waaaaay back in September 2012, I went there to visit My Buddy Mike and to run a 10K. On a beautiful Saturday afternoon, we rode bikes out from his place in Squirrel Hill and over to one of the inclines. After taking the funicular up, we were treated to this gorgeous view of downtown Pittsburgh.
