Sorry, I'm a Suffolk County girl I don't know that area. Heck, I'm going to have to use GPS to find the start point!
I'll try and PM Barry, he works in the area but doesn't get on the forum often.
The Uniondale Marriott that Chris suggested is a nice hotel with many amenities and well-located for shopping, dining, movies, etc. For a more economical choice, also well-located, try the Red Roof Inn in Westbury.
It'a an hour 5 minutes to get to Roslyn from my house. Who knew it was so close?

Google maps has me at about 2 hours and 18 minutes (up to 2 hours 40 minutes with traffic).
Hmmm - Alarm at 4:30 O'early and on road by 5:00 should do it for us "T" if you want to stay overnite at Casa-de-Skyman-CT?
Chris unless we decide to do an overnighter it will be just Skyman-CT (1) -
O'early not in Mrs Skyman-CT vocabulary.

Mark, Let me know if there's anything I can do to help accomplish that overnighter. You can already see how much help I was to solli.
You can change my count to only one Chris.
Mrs. Skyman-CT doesn't do O'Early O'Clock, and she doesn't want to do an overniter.

Got three however one is still on Island with SkyhighNY and will need to be recharged - so I'll say two {one for me and T} unless someone can help Karen Recharge it?
Sunscreen
Don't use the stuff - I like to feel the burn
Fill your gas tank (there is a gas station next to the West side of the diner).
Check - will fill-up next to diner.
Print out this post and the two linked maps before you leave home. (Oh, and bring them with you!)
Don't worry "T" - I'll print two sets
More to come as I think of them.
I guess - Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-Thats all folks!

Just found out a bunch of friends were going on this run so I decided to go as well. Add me to the list as well please. I get up pretty early anyway so this shouldn't be anything out of the ordinary.
