I was 30 years old in 1999, the first time I ran the NYC Marathon. My time was 4.40. I was single and living on 17th Street, at the time, in a rent stabilized 4th floor walk up studio so small I could pretty much stretch both hands out and reach its opposite walls. It was cozy though! I had just left a career as a lawyer and was following some wacky dream to work in restaurants.
