Dear Runners,
Another epic weekend in the books for the Woodside-Sunnyside Runners. I’m still buzzing from yesterday’s Queen’s Marathon & Tune-Up and I didn’t even run the race! It was such a joy seeing our runners loop their way through Flushing Meadows after months of training. Congratulations to Annie, David, Jose, Ivan, and Rich who completed the full marathon and Kat, Nicole and Mike who completed the nearly 20 mile tune-up. Special shout out to Coach Annie who placed 5th in her age group and Rich who crushed his first marathon grinning ear-to-ear the entire time!
The runners weren’t the only ones out there making us proud on Sunday…A HUGE WSR Thank You to our volunteers who ran the finish line water station and the race’s baggage check. They had an early start and stood for hours in the cold, but never stopped smiling. We owe you beers, hugs, and some major respect!
What are we most looking forward to next? The 2nd Annual LIC Post Waterfront 5K! We are once again race day organizers along with Run LIC and we would love to see all of our members out there racing or volunteering. Race registration is open now and volunteer sign up with be available shortly. We can’t wait for another great day in LIC raising funds for the Hunters Point Parks Conservancy.
Just five days left to submit your idea for an adventure run as
part of our March challenge. Whoever submits the most
creative run will win a gift certificate for a facial from our friends at Pure
Spa and will get to lead their run in April or May. We already have some great
ideas in the contests. To enter, send us an email at info@
Love and running,
Erica
