  Speaker 2: world majors, so New York's next on the list.
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: The power of being challenging myself and keep pushing it
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: to the limit is something that I really love and
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: that helps me emotionally and personally.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: We are totally addicted to it.

• 2:15
  Speaker 4: my father, for his own 50th anniversary, or birthday, sorry,
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: he also ran the marathon. So it's kind of a...
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: reproducing what he did, you know?
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: A tradition, in a sense.
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: In a sense, yeah. Yes, in a sense. Except that
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: it's only once in a lifetime, I think.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: That's how a lot of people feel, that running the
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: marathon for them, especially when they come in from other countries,
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: like this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them.
• 2:39
  Speaker 5: 160 countries are represented in the marathon. That's amazing. How
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: many countries are there? It's not many more than that.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: Exactly. And that's Samuel. He's running with a friend who's
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: also from France, one of.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: 160 countries, who also turned 50 this year. And their
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: kids will watch them run. Across that finish line, millions
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: of people are expected to watch along the route with
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: the NYPD warning of tight security measures, including roving street
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: closures that start tomorrow night as preparation gets underway. More
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: than 15,000 police barricades line that five borough route. And
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: Alberto Colleen is very familiar with it. Guess how many
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: marathons he's run?
• 3:24
  Speaker 6: How many?
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: OK, well, let him tell you.
• 3:27
  Speaker 6: This will be 141.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: 141?
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: That's right, 141. How do you keep count?
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: 141.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: Do you keep every medal? Like, how does it go?
• 3:37
  Speaker 6: Yeah, so I think, I don't know, I've never been
• 3:40
  Speaker 6: a mom before, but you know how many kids you've had.
• 3:44
  Speaker 6: So like that, right? You reflect on every race. You should,
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: you know, jot down your numbers after every race. So
• 3:51
  Speaker 6: after a while, you know, the list starts to grow
• 3:53
  Speaker 6: and then it's just part of your routine to to
• 3:57
  Speaker 6: track your time, to see how you're trending, how you did.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: How many marathons? Does that mean you've run a year
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: since you started running in 2003?
• 4:04
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it was just one a year when I started.
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: Just recently, it's been going up. Because once you're in
• 4:10
  Speaker 6: marathon shape, you're ready to run. My high has been
• 4:15
  Speaker 6: 17 a year. 17 a year.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Madonna, my.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: And New York City, this is his 11th time running
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: New York City and his 14th marathon this year.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: So this guy is just going all over running marathons.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean? And we're talking about the
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: Fifth Avenue mile for me. That's incredible. He really is incredible.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: He's in great shape, this guy. Great shape.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: Now, if you're not like Alberto and you don't run
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: 17 marathons a year, runners who have been training have
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: some advice for some first-time marathoners.
• 4:49
  Speaker 6: If you did your training, just enjoy the race. Run
• 4:51
  Speaker 6: your pace. But yeah, take it all in. You know,
• 4:54
  Speaker 6: it's a big parade. New Yorkers love a parade.
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: Just getting to the start line is really the goal.
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: Everything after that is bonus. you train in order to
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: finish the race. And once you're in the race and
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: you know it's hard, you picture yourself crossing the finishing line.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: Nobody's born able to run more than a step. So
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: take it one step at a time and you'll get
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: to the finish line. Which is great.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: That's what I need to keep in mind as I
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: train for my Fifth Avenue.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: Mile, not the marathon.
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: But I'll be at mile eight. Ken Rosato will be
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: at mile 20. You guys will be at the finish
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: line in Central Park, which is.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: Going to be, I'm sure.
