Upcoming Vacation

So I am heading for New York, NY this weekend and hope to get a run in around Central Park. My only experience with New York City was a brief four hour period when a couple of buddies and I passed through on a 22 state road trip back in 2004. I have entered the lottery for the NYC Marathon a few times, but have yet to make the cut. Looks like it is going to be about 40 degrees colder than the weather here in Texas so my running tights will be making the trip with me.
