  • An Ode to Central Park

    Posted: 05.27.2008 -- 5 comments

    I used to measure my runs by distance: exactly one mile from my apartment to the 59th Street entrance of Central Park; a full loop around the park road is exactly 6 miles minus 33 yards; the shorter loop cutting off both ends is 4 miles minus 77 yards. And I knew my basic park landmarks.

    It’s 92 degrees outside, too hot and humid to run, so I’m at the mall—not to shop or hit the 14-screen movie theatre, but to ski. Yes, ski. I’m headed up the escalator in the Mall of the Emirates, a 2,400,352-square-foot behemoth that houses the first indoor ski resort in the Middle East. Ski Dubai. The huge dome, which makes new snow year round, offers five runs from beginner to the world’s first indoor Black Diamond run (steep with a 200-foot drop).

    Oh my God. It is SO HOT IN HERE! When will it be over? Why did I come? I could be outside running in the park where it’s so much cooler! I’m in a Bikram Yoga East Side class with yoga teacher Viraz Santani. He wears nothing but a pair of swimming briefs, and while he’s not doing the postures, his body glistens with perspiration like the rest of us.
