New York Station

My friend Pat is running in the New York City Marathon in November. If you would like to sponsor him by donating to the American Cancer Society, here is the link to his page.

We were talking about running music a couple of days ago, so I put the playlist below together--all songs about New York in some way. I tried not to use the songs already familiar to everyone, and I'm pretty pleased with the result. Here is the link on Spotify. Skyscrapers. Everything.
