Got the word last night that my trainer, Hassan, will be leaving NYC in August and headed back to school to finally finish his bachelor's degree at the University of Kansas. He originally left in 1993 to play defensive back for the NY Giants. It'll be tough to see him go. He's truly changed my life. I'll make suire to tell him so before our final session.
Four more races to go and I'll be set for the 2009 NY Marathon.
