November 7, 2010 - Attorney Jill David Completes The New York Marathon!

On November 7, 2010 , New York and California attorney Jill David finished the ING New York City Marathon 2010 in 5 hours 34 minutes. As her first marathon, it was one of the best experiences of her life. The course consisted of all five boroughs, views of the infamous Manhattan Skyline, including the Firm’s NY office and enthusiastic crowds of spectators. Of course, the 26.2 mile run was also a challenge. Jill began training in January 2010 and continued with long runs, hill repeats, and speed training for the next ten months. She recalls marathon day being a lot easier than the actual training, though the tireless efforts of the day should not be undermined. She climbed hills, crossed famous bridges, and navigated through thousands of people to find her way to the finish line. By the time Jill hit the infamous “wall” at Mile 22 she was more than ready to just push through and finish the race. Congratulations, Jill!
