Upper West Side filmmaker Yael Shulman made a video of the half-marathon from last month in Central Park that just might get you out of bed this morning. Or maybe it will make you want to stay in bed and watch a movie. Among the Olympians featured are Deriba Merga, Abel Kirui, Meb Keflezgihi, Collis Birmingham, Kara Goucher, Sammy Mellor, Abderrahime Bouramdane, and Scott Overall.

Please limit comments to 150 words and keep them civil and relevant to the article at hand. Comments are closed after six days. Our primary goal is to create a safe and respectful space where a broad spectrum of voices can be heard. We welcome diverse viewpoints and encourage readers to engage critically with one another’s ideas, but never at the expense of civility. Disagreement is expected—even encouraged—but it must be expressed with care and consideration. Comments that take cheap shots, escalate conflict, or veer into ideological warfare detract from the constructive spirit we aim to cultivate. A detailed statement on comments and WSR policy can be read here.
