I Agree!

I must say, I am not always a huge fan of NYRR. Many times their staff gets very angry at runners. They make you jump through lots of hoops. They are expensive. But, in all fairness, they don't have an easy job with the location and number of runners the NYC area has to offer.

But the below post is enough to change my mind. I love Mary's response to a NY Times article where fast runners say people like me shouldn't run. I really love it. Well worded, well stated, and completely true. Diversity applies to more than just race, sexual orientation, ethnic background, etc.
