'also five kinds of beer by the pitcher'

Why did a marathon have to get in the way of this trip? :-)

pasta's not going to be too dear as long as you don't ask for shaved truffles on it

i think between $15 and $20 a main is alright. I'll just be loading up on pasta and garlic bread anyway...

I've just added my details to the article.

This will be my first mara and I'm not looking for a good time, I just want to enjoy it.

I hope to meet some of there and I'd certainly be interested in meeting for dinner, the after mara party, the halloween parade and the gentle run on the Saturday morning sounds good too.

As for seeing NY I'll have to buy some photos.......

I've just ordered currency online through Travelex, the best rate at the moment is $1.57 to the £, not good at all....

Exchange rate sounds excellent form my side of the Atlantic, Moscow. ;-)

Really, just wanted to pop in and wish everyone a great race in NY. Contro, I know one thing, the weather will be better than in Chicago.

I had the option to 'buy now, have it sent in October' back in July, which would have netted me around $1.97 guaranteed. Serves me right for thinking it may be better to hold off!

MD - You're going to the pasta party? I thought about it but decided not to, I think there's a good few of the Macmillan runners going though.
