Welcome to this week’s edition of our weekly news and events roundup of all things Whippet-related.
The Dashing Whippets Running Team thanks our 2016 Team Sponsors for their generous support of the club: RunnerClinicNYC, Brooklyn Roasting Company, Strava, Fitletic, Inc, and adidas.

events/2016/nyrr-team- championships-women-5m and here: http://www.nyrr.org/races-and- events/2016/nyrr-team- championships-men-5m - Make sure to check out our full team results page. This is a full database of every result we know about from every member of the team. The group of Brian Donaghy, Young Cho, Tom Flanagan, Andrew Hadro, and Terry McGovern have worked for countless hours on it and it’s really an amazing product (I think the best results database any club our size has). They recently linked each person with their Stravapage (if you are a member of the club on Strava). Also, when you enter your non-NYRR result (link on the page), it automatically gets forwarded to Martina so she knows to include it in the results writeup! http://www.dashingwhippets.
