IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR WEATHER TIPS ON HOW WHAT TO WEAR FOR THIS YEAR’S NEW YORK CITY MARATHON, GO HERE.


okay… I think I have it figured out, but here are some hints:

Done!
New York City Marathon 2008 – marathon #1
New York City Marathon 2009 - marathon #2

New York City Marathon 2011 – marathon #6 Β Footlocker Five Boro Challenge: FIRST MARATHON I DID NOT PR or BQ at… ehem.
Berlin Marathon 2012 - marathon #6
Berlin Marathon 2012 – marathon #7 my crazy 3:27 PR!
New York City Marathon elizabeth maiuolo finish line (1)
New York City Marathon 2013 – marathon #8

So, basically, the only time I didn’t wear my Argentinian Soccer jersey, I did not PR. I don’t expect to PR this time but given that I only wear this shirt to marathoning, I gotta take it out for a ride, and for anyway good luck! Maybe it’s supposed to be Β a “course PR” shirt????

Updated, with two more:

Boston Marathon 2014 - marathon #9
Boston Marathon 2014 – marathon #9 -had the shirt on for two miles, then took it off as I was SO HOT!
2014-11-02 20.32.42-1

    Hola, dime, cortas las letras en el duck tape, en la noche previa ( si es asΓ­ las pegas en algo?…no pierden adhesivo por estar pegadas hasta el dΓ­a siguiente) o cortas las letras del tape en la maΓ±ana antes de la carrera, te lo digo por que quiero poner mi nombre y el de mi paΓ­s y eso me podrΓ­a tomar mucho tiempo??

      las tenes que poner en algo para poder cortarlas. yo uso el papel de stickers, pongo el duct tape ahi y las corto, las podes poner con tiempo antes, el duct tape no se sale… proba ahora que tenes varios dias si queres. Yo las corto dias antes y las pego apenas puedo, jueves, viernes, etc.
