Announcing: the Second Annual NYC New Years Triathlon.
(insert trumpet fanfare here)
This isn't your average race. Actually, it's not a race at all. It's simply a way to start the year with a swim, a bike, and a run. Or rather, a run, then a bike, then a swim.
First, you run in Central Park in the NYRR's Midnight Run.
Then, you meet up in Central Park and bike to Coney Island.
Finally, you take a dip in the Atlantic with the Coney Island Polar Bears.
What could be a better way to start the year: a little bit healthy, a little bit crazy.
So, how do you sign up? Simple. First, you register for the New York Road Runners Emerald Nuts Midnight Run. That's about it in terms of advance planning. The rest is just a matter of showing up. I'll post more details later, but the general idea is that we'll assemble with bikes at the Bethesda Terrace at 11 a.m. on New Years Day and bike in time to Coney Island in time for the Polar Bears' New Years Day Swim, which takes place at 1 p.m.

Happy New Year! (oh, wait, it's a little too early for that).
