Sunday November 4th marks the 37th New York City Marathon.  But even before this event begins New York is hosting the Men's 2008 Olympic Trials in Central Park.  While a select few will have a chance to run in Beijing the rest of the world is invited to run on Sunday, in the NYC Marathon.  Last year was a record breaking year and produced that largest ever marathon in history.  2007 has a few thousand less applicants than 2006, but could still have more people participate in the race.  Millions will watch the runners race through all five boroughs of New York City, and it will end in Central Park.  I will try an watch the race around mile marker 14, which is in Long Island City.  While I know very little

about professional running I am going with Rogers Rop to win this race.  Rop, is the only athlete to win both the NYC and Boston Marathon in the same year (2002), and he recorded his best marathon time this year.  He is one Kenyan Policeman I would not try to outrun.

I am optimistic you would never be in a situation that you are running away from a Police Officer!
