On second thought...
New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg has decided against his initial idea that running the MYC Marathon was a good idea...
Now, running the marathon is a bad idea and he won't have it happen after all...
And he's leaving US$340-million on the table...
The HQ has gone round and round on the idea...
On one hand, there's the thought that running the race shows that the city is on its way back. There's also the thought that the city could use the infusion of capital is so desperately needs...
On the other hand, there's the thought that the region is too busy in trying to function on a daily basis to be concerned with people from foreign countries running around New York City in short-shorts not giving a tinker's damn about people who don't have any power, gas for their cars, or even a home to go home to...
Take your pick... but the HQ is leaning more toward the latter...
We have friends and family up there and we'll defer to what they say...
