NYC Pizza Run

I was walking across East 7th Street this past Saturday, when I saw this truck-thing, parked at the corner of Avenue B, with orange cones:

Truck-thing with orange cones.

It's my guess that it belonged to the people who were sponsoring the New York City Pizza Run.

What's that? I didn't write about the New York City Pizza Run? Well, let's get started!

This past Saturday was the New York City Pizza Run, in the heart of the East Village, around the beautiful Tompkins Square Park!

The idea is: you run around the park and eat pizza — how fun is that?!

The pizza was provided by Pizza by Cer Té, not an East Village institution, but a purveyor of some fine pizza, by all accounts!

Here are some pictures of the event:

World's largest selfie stick.

No description of the festivities would be complete without a video of people running!


A great time was had by all… in the East Village Today!
