Quiet Bowery Walk

On this particular stretch of the Bowery there still remain some of the trademark bums. They now share sidewalk space with European tourists who have seated themselves at an outdoor cafe for brunch.

They do not pay me any notice as I walk past. It Sunday morning and rather quiet.

Walk Fast, Live Long!

New York Magazine published a lengthy article on the extended life expectancy of New Yorkers.
Turns out its not just the smoking ban... its the walking, the fast, furious, New York City walk.

See here:

“Walking speed absolutely reflects health status,” Simonsick says. So when you irritatedly blow past a trio of ambling visitors from Ohio or Iowa on the subway platform, you’re not just being an obnoxious New Yorker. You’re demonstrating that you’re going to outlive them—and enjoy better health while they slowly degrade."(link)

And 'a recent ranking of cities found that New York has the fastest pedestrians in the country'

I feel very proud.

Headspin

All this walking is supposed to be meditative, help to slow down my thinking and bring me some new insight on on what I've been doing creatively and where I want to go from here.. but mostly it just makes my head spin.
