New York, NYC - The New Yord Road Runners announced yesterday that 'Geb' is returning for another NYC 1/2 marathon this March.  NYRR president and CEO, Mary Wittenberg, proudly announced “Haile is a superstar, a legendary champion, and an ambassador for the sport, and we continue to be amazed by him.  To have him back for the second time for the NYC Half-Marathon is a great thrill and a win for this quickly growing event.” Indeed, as it's very rare for Geb to come to the US to race, having him take part in the newly revamped NYC 1/2, is a big score for the NYRR.  As usual, the course is designed to celebrate New York City, as the NYC Half-Marathon will take runners on a loop through Central Park, down Seventh Avenue through Times Square, across 42nd Street, and along the expansive West Side Highway to Battery Park in the heart of the city’s financial district, finishing with a view of the Statue of Liberty.  To read the nyrr's full story, clickety click here  http://www.nyrr.org/races/2010/nychalf/story01.asp
