• 0:58
  Speaker 5: In Brooklyn transform from like this dead area when you

  Speaker 2: And you were, I will tell you, like we were
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: doing play by play and we were getting into the,
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: you know, nitty gritty of the racers and they would
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: go to you and it was like a party. It
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: was like fun.
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: You're like, what are you on?
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: I was like, calm down. I'm on mile eight.
• 1:33
  Speaker 5: You know, we know you very well, obviously, but Aisha,
• 1:36
  Speaker 5: who was our race commentator for the day was like,
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: who is.
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: That was fun. Yeah, I wish I was a runner.
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: Everybody like really inspires you when you get to my
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: elite or really anywhere around the course. But you know,
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: the marathon drew in from over 160 countries, people and
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: roughly 60,000 finishers. Two million spectators all seeing the city,
• 2:04
  Speaker 5: many for the first time. So we thought, what do
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: people visiting the city from near and far think about it?
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: Oh, I love it. It's so much chaos. It's so
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: much dirt. It smells, but I love it. It's so
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: interesting for me.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: It's been clean, staying at a really great hotel not
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: far from here and just You know, the people of
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: New York are really welcoming, so enjoying seeing them.
• 2:30
  Speaker 7: Or I thought it would just be another city, but
• 2:32
  Speaker 7: then it's a completely different place, separate to the world.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: In what way?
• 2:36
  Speaker 6: In every way.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: The people, the culture, just everything. If you look around
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: anywhere else in the world, you wouldn't.
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: See stuff like this.
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: That's always good to hear, right?
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah, a lot of people telling me they give New
• 2:48
  Speaker 5: York a 10 out of 10, so I kept telling them,
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: they could come back, okay? We'll have you back if
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: you give us a 10 out of 10.
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: But even if it wasn't, you know, their first time.
• 3:01
  Speaker 6: We were here 20 years ago and I was slightly
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: worried it would all be the same, and it's not.
• 3:05
  Speaker 6: We found so many different things to go up, so
• 3:08
  Speaker 6: many different things to explore, new museums, et cetera, et cetera.
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: So, no, massively exceeded expectations.
• 3:14
  Speaker 7: It actually went beyond my expectations. I actually see a
• 3:17
  Speaker 7: lot of comments regarding New York City that just aren't true.
• 3:21
  Speaker 7: And I'm just glad that I finally witnessed the city
• 3:27
  Speaker 7: with my own eyes, you know?
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: What kind of comments?
• 3:30
  Speaker 7: There's a lot of comments regarding, you know, the rat situation.
• 3:34
  Speaker 7: with New York City and that whenever you walk, a
• 3:36
  Speaker 7: rat will just come out of nowhere and scare you
• 3:39
  Speaker 7: and I actually haven't faced that yet. I'm not saying
• 3:42
  Speaker 7: that it's not true, but it's just not how they
• 3:45
  Speaker 7: describe it, you know? I think they're over-exaggerating the situation here.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: Any comments? I see rats.
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: I see rats in the street, but it's not like, oh,
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: there's one there. It's not like you're sidestepping over rats
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: all the time.
• 4:01
  Speaker 8: No, I think they know that's not a day where
• 4:03
  Speaker 8: there's a lot of discarded food. There's discarded water cups
• 4:07
  Speaker 8: and such. But it's not a food day, and they're
• 4:09
  Speaker 8: not going to come out with thousands and thousands of
• 4:12
  Speaker 8: people cheering on the sidelines.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: Well, those who ran New York City have a bit
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: of a different perspective, not necessarily regarding the cleanliness of
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: our city.
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: But the crowds and the incline. The runners love our people.
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: Everything that these guys are talking about, the hills are real,
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: but the crowds are amazing. It was just a good vibe,
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: and you can really pull on them to help you
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: up all those grindy hills out here. So I had
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: a lot of fun time. I got to high-five a
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: lot of people and take in the sights. I mean,
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: it's just a beautiful city to be in. The hill
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: coming up Fifth Avenue on the way back, that was
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: the worst of all time. The people of New York
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: are just incredible. Every borough, it was amazing.
• 4:51
  Speaker 6: It was actually one of the best run marathons that
• 4:55
  Speaker 6: I've ever done. I really enjoyed it, and just the
• 4:57
  Speaker 6: crowd energy the whole way was really fun.
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: Now, it's Metal Monday, so a lot of brands are
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: offering free engravements on the metal, like Lululemon and Nike
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: and stuff. But just to hear the people who come
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: here just to run... And they love us because I'm
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: at my late. No, just to listen to the people,
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: just how they love our city and how we come
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: out with all our signs and stuff on and off
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: the course.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: People who are just visiting New York City and people
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: who are running the marathon.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Let me tell the TV stations here, and don't leave us.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: Don't leave us. Do both. Let me tell the TV
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: stations here that she puts on a full show that
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: you don't get to see on radio that you would
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: be able to get to see on TV.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I try. It's a lot of arm movements.
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: Yes, I know.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: You'd think my arms would be in better shape for
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: what I'm doing. Look at his energy.
• 5:53
  Speaker 6: Natalie Migliore, star of the marathon reporting. We'll be back tomorrow,
• 5:59
  Speaker 6: same time, same place, at 7.50, coming up from the streets.
• 6:04
  Speaker 6: But up next, Trump said, think of this election as
• 6:07
  Speaker 6: being about me.
• 6:08
  Speaker 8: We'll discuss that after the 8 o'clock news.
