d/ 1zXJku4XkO76liOgvAGkT8CdRRmldv EykGyK-XyW1E3g/viewform - Our track meet is tentatively set for May 30th at the East River Park track. It’s the same date as the Healthy Kidney, but we don’t usually have a huge turnout for that, so selected that date after the Portugal Day race was moved to our original date of June 7. Mark your calendars. More info coming soon!
- This is probably the last weekend of Central Park Thursday workouts since it’s finally warming up and the snow/ice on the track will be melted by next week (hopefully!)!
- The Front Runners are holding their annual indoor meet next Tuesday at the Armory: http://www.meetup.com/dashing-
