Course Changes?

The NYRR Holiday Run is now a 4 mile race, according to the NYRR Web site.

Thanks to reader IO, who pointed out that the NYRR has already changed its planned race on 12/12 from a 5K to a 4 mile run because of construction in Prospect Park.

Not sure yet what the Turkey Trot course will be next Thursday (that's still 5 miles) - if may be the planters that are causing the problem on one of the transverses in the park, or something else.
