Results
Results – thanks a ton to Martina, who is writing up the results! If you have any non-NYRR results and would like to be featured on our Weekly Wag and have the result in our database, make sure to fill out the results form here: http://www.dashingwhippets.
Congratulations to Martina, who gave birth to a baby boy this week! If the results writeup is only half as good, that’s because I’m doing it instead of her this time around.
