Mary Cain hopped to the starting line of the Wanamaker Mile at the 2013 Millrose Games in New York City. Wearing a simple black kit, she was flanked by the likes of Emma Coburn, Jordan Hasay, and Emily Infeld. To many in the packed stands surrounding the 200-meter track that night, she was an unknown, just a local kid among some of the fastest milers in the world.
Taking her place in lane six, Cain traced a cross from her forehead to her chest and from one shoulder to the other, pitched forward, and froze. One foot at the line, the other half a stride back, her elbows bent, her brow furrowed.

It’s been more than a year since the New York City Council approved a $1.45 billion plan to protect Manhattan’s Lower East Side from future flooding, but challenges to the plan have been recently reignited by some who remain opposed to the project.
Work on the northern portion of the East Side Coastal Resiliency Project, at Asser Levy Playground at East 23rd St., started earlier this month, to get the area ready for construction, according to the New York City Department of Design and Construction. The city said it plans to begin work on the East River Park section of the project, south of East 14th St., by early next year, once bids come back from contractors.
