Scrolling through our Strava feed, and OMG, so many peeps who rolled the New York 100k & #NYC #SkateMarathon.

Sorry, no idea (yet) what website has overall results. We're just checking Strava, and ooh, Allegra from #Brooklyn was 8th in the women's 100k bracket. Woot!

I'm not in the position to move to #Svalbard why can't we rein in the #motorist #apocalypse in #Brooklyn so I can #exercise again in #ProspectPark while not having to bolt my window at night and crank the #air purifier

The weather forecast for Saturday (9/27) morning is vastly improved from a couple days ago, which means inline speedskaters rolling the NY 100k and #NYC Skate Marathon in #Brooklyn #ProspectPark should not get soaked like they did a year ago.

Pease consider visiting Prospect Saturday morning to make lots of noise encouraging the skaters forward.

Starting gun is scheduled for 7 a.m. Event start-finish line is near the park's Lincoln Road entrance.

Beautiful weekend to be #InlineSkating and seeing the sights in #NYC, although a bit windy Sunday afternoon. Empire's long-distance #GroupSkate Saturday apparently went well, and we enjoyed visiting a couple favorite spots in Brooklyn on Sunday.

Now everyone, cross your fingers and pray for improvement in the weather forecast for next Saturday morning. It's NYC 100k & Inline Marathon time in #Brooklyn #ProspectPark.

Photo looking down the West Side Bike Path with 1 WTC about a half mile ahead. The sky is bright but cloudy.

Photo looking along the length of Valentino Pier at Red Hook. It's a bit cloudy but still sunny. There is a cruise ship exiting New York Bay a mile or more away toward the left side of the photo, and another one docked at the Bayonne pierto its right.

At this point not sure I'll ever be able to #run again in #ProspectPark with narrow "fair" #airquality window of opportunity between 11:45 A.M. and 12 PM after morning #traffic recedes; otherwise "poor": impossible to run a loop in 15 minutes unless you're #UsainBolt #brooklyn #Climate #climatechange #running #exercise

#ProspectPark #powwow: try a #pawpaw or rather #mahchikpi from #Passamaquoddy tribe, as well as Indian #taco and fry #bread

Yellow warbler: A small yellow bird stretches up its neck as it looks skyward, while perched in a tree with lime-green leaves and samaras

A bunny, pink ears up and flexed, pauses on a sidewalk, with its front paws just barely touching the ground

Ruby-throated hummingbird: A hummingbird with a white belly and a green cap sits at the end of a zigzag branch

A #GreatBlueHeron maybe 30’ away this morning in #prospectpark he was probably 3 1/2 to 4’ tall

It's the first of September and the start of meterological autumn, but the main part of the #InlineSkating season in #NYC still has a couple months to roll.

Coming up in a few weeks is the NYC Skate Marathon & 100k in #ProspectPark on Sep 27. Consider attending to cheer on the skaters even if you won't be rolling.

October ends with Empire's annual #GroupSkate to the Tarrytown Halloween festivities, as well as the grand finale of the official NYC Wednesday Night Skate.
