Frequently Asked Questions
How far is a marathon?
26.2 miles
Do you guys plan to run it together at the same pace?
Yes, we have a stick together pact.
How long will it take you?
We would love to come in around 4 hours.
How long have you been training?
We officially began our marathon training on March 1st, 2009.
You live in San Jose, why the NYC Marathon?
NYC is a special place for us. We met there, got engaged in Central Park and lived there for over 10 years. Some of our fondest memories are heading into the Park on marathon day to watch the finishers come in. It always inspired us and that's that.
Did you have to qualify for the NYC Marathon?
No. But in order to avoid having to enter the lottery we joined with the official charitable organization of the race, Team for Kids.
