NYCRuns had Mother Nature's cooperation on this one as the wind chill was something like 11F as we lined up. Number pickup and bag check once t-shirt was collected was easy. Really do wish NYCRuns had more regular early pickup to make race morning easier, although their fields are small enough that this generally isn't an issue.
There was some ice and packed snow on the course's first hill leading to some prudent walking, but the course was generally in good shape. Volunteers throughout kept our spirits up, although I felt worse for them since it was way easier for us to keep warm.
The Riverside Park course is good and scenic with the loops varied enough that it doesn't feel like deja vu. Pick up of bag was easy and post-race snacks were good.
