Hoj,

za vse tiste, ki načrtujete letošnjo udeležbo na maratonu v New Yorku, je organizator na uradni internet strani: http://www.ingnycmarathon.org/entrantinfo/index.php objavil, da bo prijava možna od 25. februarja dalje.

Ta maraton je v mojem tekaškem koledarju. Predlagam, da se vsi zainteresirani organiziramo za skupnio potovanje in bivanje v NY. Seveda bo prej treba še počakati na rezultate žreba, razen tistih, ki že izpolnjujejo pogoje za prijavo (kvalifikacijski čas, povabilo, Charity Program ...). Dobrodošla bo vsakršna pomoč in sugestije "starih mačkov", ki ste do sedaj že sodelovali na tem maratonu.

Časa je še več kot dovolj tako, da ni panike. Me prav zanima koliko slovenk in slovencev se bo letos podilo po ulicah NY.

Želim vam čimveč nabranih kilometrov v bazičnem delu priprav na maratone.

Hoj,

pred dnevi sem, glede na prijavljen čas, od organizatorja, dobil povabilo oziroma potrditev za nastop na letošnjem the ING New York City Marathonu. Čeprav je tekma šele 2. novembra sem že pričel s pripravami za pot in namestitev v NY.

Se je morda še kdo od TF prijavil za ta maraton?

Tiste, ki ste že tekli v NY prosim za kakšen nasvet, kako najlažje speljati logistiko. Že v naprej hvala.

Ja, David, ob prijavi je treba plačati 11 USD (7,41 €), ne glede na to, ali boš ižreban. Ko si uradno izbran oz. prijavljen, ti avtomatsko zaračunajo še 210 USD (135 €) štartnine. Kot vidiš, niso ravno poceni.

MatjazV čestitke za žreb Bomo navijali zate!!!!

[Tatjana]

Štartnina je res kar draga, ampak za ta denar tudi precej dobiš. Je pa trenutno tudi fajn, da dolar slabo stoji in je za nas malo ceneje.

[GTA]

Matjaž, lahko po tel. ali zs. Imam celo mapo dokumentacije, ki jo lahko dobiš in nekaj nasvetov, ki ti bodo lahko prišli prav. Je pa treba doživet!

Včeraj je še pisalo LOTERY, danes pa so objavili kdo ja in kdo ne. Jaz letos ne bom tekla tam, kar je po svoje tudi u redu.

New York, New York

Start spreading the news
I'm leaving today
I want to be a part of it, New York, New York
These vagabond shoes
Are longing to stray
And make a brand new start of it
New York, New York
I want to wake up in the city that never sleeps
To find I'm king of the hill, top of the heap
These little town blues
Are melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it
In old New York
If I can make it there
I'll make it anywhere
It's up to you, New York, New York.

"An Open Letter To NYC"

Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens and Staten
From the Battery to the top of Manhattan
Asian, Middle-Eastern and Latin
Black, White, New York you make it happen

Brownstones, water towers, trees, skyscrapers
Writers, prize fighters and Wall Street traders
We come together on the subway cars
Diversity unified, whoever you are
We're doing fine on the One and Nine line
On the L we're doin' swell
On the number Ten bus we fight and fuss
'Cause we're thorough in the boroughs and that's a must
I remember when the Duece was all porno flicks
Running home after school to play PIX * 1
At lunch I'd go to Blimpies down on Montague Street
And hit the Fulton Street Mall for the sneakers on my feet
Dear New York I hope you're doing well
I know a lot's happen and you've been through hell
So, we give thanks for providing a home
Through your gates at Ellis Island we passed in droves

Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens and Staten
From the Battery to the top of Manhattan
Asian, Middle-Eastern and Latin
Black, White, New York you make it happen

The L.I.E. the B.Q.E
Hippies at the band shell with the L.S.D.
Get my BVD's from VIM
You know I'm reppin' Manhattan the best I can
Stopped off at Bleeker Bob's got thrown out
Sneakin' in at 4:00 am after going out
You didn't rob me in the park at Dianna Ross
But everybody started looting when the light went off
From the South South Bronx on out to Queens Bridge
From Hollis Queens right down to Bay Ridge
From Castle Hill to the Lower East Side
From 1010 WINS to Live At Five
Dear New York this is a love letter
To you and how you brought us together
We can't say enough about all you do
'Cause in the city were ourselves and electric too

Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens and Staten
From the Battery to the top of Manhattan
Asian, Middle-Eastern and Latin
Black, White, New York you make it happen

Shout out the South Bronx where my mom hails from
Right next to High Bridge across from Harlem
To the Grand Concourse where my mom and dad met
Before they moved on down to the Upper West
I see you're still strong after all that's gone on
Life long we dedicate this song
Just a little something to show some respect
To the city that blends and mends and tests
Since 911 we're still livin'
And lovin' life we've been given
Ain't nothing gonna take that away from us
Were lookin' pretty and gritty 'cause in the city we trust
Dear New York I know a lot has changed
2 towers down but you're still in the game
Home to many rejecting know one
Accepting peoples of all places, wherever they're from

Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens and Staten
From the Battery to the top of Manhattan
Asian, Middle-Eastern and Latin
Black, White, New York you make it happen

Če ste že tako 'pesniško' razpoloženi še moj prispevek na to temo:

New York nights by Recoil
http://www.myspace.com/recoil

Mind numbing, mentally crushing, membrane sloshing noise.
Manhattan rumbled through
night and I never knew that.
Had suspected, had read it on t–shirts: ‘The city that
never sleeps.'
But didn't need to believe it.
The onliest sound I believed was the train pulling out, heard from ‘bout 6 blocks away.
That was an all night sound.
Smooth, not chatter.
The noise was too noisy.
I mean noisier than noise had to be.
Noisier than the splash sound of the shore upon the roar of a 757 taking the summer route.
Upon mom vex cause little kids don't listen.
Noise bigger than blockbuster videos playing in the next room at the 4am matinee and the phone...that was just noise.
I mean noisier than noise should be.
Not ear deafening, mind numbing, mentally crushing, membrane
sloshing noise.

Keithie and his boys walked and talked shit nights but it was always distinct, not chatter.... 'n' jersey girls didn't giggle at the freaks, 'talianos sucking
Corona bottles making crashes fill the street, never plugged the void of my nights because the void was silence.
Over in Bushwick, the ice cream man pulled his truck over
while, shall we say, he got his popsickle sucked.
He pulled over his truck but the song kept on, all day, all night. The song means the ice cream guy’s gettin' some - it don't even mean ice cream. 'Cause they hear the song and there’s no guy selling ice cream from the truck. 'Sides, who got money to be giving kids every time they hear the song woven between the sounds of car horns and latin rhythms.
And the ice cream guy gets death threats.
Gotta get me a token, make the rumble of the ‘A’ my lullaby.
Gotta escape to the womb of my room.
I never believed in New York nights.
I never slept in Manhattan before.
21 years, 16 by the shore.
It may have taken a while to get used to the silence, the absence of sound through night at my home but I’ve never slept in Manhattan before.

It hurts.
It is hurting my head as I write this.
It is making my mind squeeze itself through a tiny doorway onto a massive stage where sound is disconnected from action.
Each render themselves tiles in the mosaic.
Pretty is the picture from far away.

Gotta get me a token, make the rumble of the ‘A’ my lullaby.
Gotta escape to the womb of my room. I never believed in New York nights. Each tone drifts against the next with nowhere it would rather be.
No desire of dominance, no call to signify nothing.
Gotta get me a token, make the rumble of the 'A' my lullaby.
Gotta escape to the womb of my room.
I never believed in New York nights.

Živ!

Za udeležence maratona v New Yorku.

Matjaž je že davno predlagal, da se vsi nastopajoči organiziramo za skupno potovanje in bivanje v NY. Sedaj ko so rezultati žrebanja znani bi bilo potrebno počasi v akcijo. Kaj o tem menite ostali srečni izžrebanci?

Sandi in ostali,

zdej je pa res že skrajni čas za končne priprave na odhod v NY in ureditev vseh formalnosti predvsem glede letalskih kart in namestitve. Jaz sem to že opravil. Torej, imam letalsko karto, rezervirano sobo v hostlu in plačan prevoz z letališča JFK do hostla. Tisti ki greste na maraton v NY in še ne veste, kje boste spali, predlagam Chelsea International Hostel, Manhattan - spletna stran: http://www.chelseahostel.com/index.html. Tudi letalsko karto sem dobil dokaj ugodno, letim na relaciji Ljubljana-Praga-NY.

Se kaj slišimo, če je potreben kakšen dogovor ali pomoč.

LP, MatjazV

Jutri bo naš MatjažV nastopil na NY marathonu. Naj mu uspe, kot si želi. Srečno tudi vsem ostalim. Pričakujem kakšno konkretno reportažo.
