training, be sure to also join us for a work-out with Coach Mike at the fun run.

activities of the clinic, and feel free to reach out to us if you have any
questions or suggestions. Hope to see you there! Dave, Tim, Jonathan, and
Lucilla New Assistant Coaches! Coach Mike reports: Gilbert Goana and Jennifer Bougher
are the new assistant coaches! I’m very happy that they volunteered to help improve

me and FRNY! Thank you Jen and Gilbert! June Board Meeting The

Bike with us Saturday! Fernando Aguilar will be hosting a training ride on
Saturday June 6 to get riders ready for the Pride Ride the following weekend.
The group will meet in two locations - at 72nd Street & Riverside
Drive at7:30 am and before we go up the ramp on the New York Side of the GW
Bridge at 8 am. We ride along 9W to Kiku Restaurant, then stop
and turn around. We’ll do continuous loops between Kiku and East Clinton Avenue, which
is 5 miles each way. This goal will be to get our mileage up and to get our legs
spinning on the flats. Since it’s back and forth, people will be able to go at their own
pace, racking up mileage without getting lost. Please RSVP so we know to
expect you. Also, In order to bike with us this year, you’ll need to sign up in advance
on our list of riders. Let us know if you’d like to be added to list. We have a maximum
of 100 spots, so please be sure you’d like to ride first, but if you do then don’t
delay! Beginner Swim Clinic continues! The Five week program is designed for people

This racing week started with a literal bang, as Front Runners raced through
thunder, lightning, rain and thick pollen on Wednesday evening in Riverside Park in the
second NYCRUNS Riverside Park 5K of the season. FRNY was a proud co-sponsor of
this race, and we demonstrated our pride by running fast, winning lots of awards and
locking down first place in the Interclub Challenge for both the FRNY men’s and women’s
teams. FRNY was represented by Colin Ogilvie (second overall), Giri Parameswaran (ninth
overall), Steve Waldon (13th overall), Ryan Greene (14th overall), Richard White (first
in age), Andrew Good (third in age), Fernando Aguilar (21:03), Brenton Bellomy (21:05,
fourth in age), David White (third in age), Yoshie "Yaby" Yabu (second in age), Chris
Strouse, Tim Guscott, Mike Markowitz, Alan Brown (third in age), Tom Malcolm, Jennifer
Bougher, Bernie Janelle (first in age), Craig Booth and Diane Westerback. The runners
were supported by an impressive cadre of FRNY volunteers -- David Lin, Jerry
McDonnell, Patrick Hart, Bernd Erpenbeck, Dennis Ng and Dan Ferguson -- each of whom
course-marshalled with flair despite the terrible weather. Well done, FRNY! Yaby Yabu,
first place for FRNY women!Photo courtesy of Bernd Erpenbeck FRNY Representing at
the INterClub Challenge Riverside 5K Series. FRNY took 1st place in both gender
divisions! Photo by Andrew Good Midnight running was all the rage this week!
�International men of speediness Markus Armbruster, Zander Ross and Richard Ervais
enjoyed Luxembourg as they ran in the Night Marathon together, all crossing
the finish line in 3:49:36. Closer to home, six intrepid adventurers competed in the
Orchard Street Runners Midnight Half-Marathon on the Lower East Side and
Brooklyn. Competitors must not only run, but must know the shortest possible route among
four checkpoints and avoid getting lost. Dan Ferguson finished in sixth place overall in
1:19:49, up one place from last year. Following him were Jerry McDonnell (1:26:41),
Chris Carper (1:39:39), Dave Lin (1:46:01), Dennis Ng (1:48:16) and John Grunert
(1:54:25). Providing moral support out on the course were Mike Markowitz, Connor Essick
and Kurt Steinhouse. Runners of the Midnight Half Marathon had to navigate
an unmarked course in Brooklyn and lower Manhattan to get to the finish. Photo courtesy
of Dennis Ng. FRNY took over the left coast in America’s Finest City this
past weekend, with 17 Front Runners travelling and partying -- and oh yeah, racing! -together in the Rock ’n’ Roll San Diego Marathon, Half Marathon, Relay and 5K. Ruth
Loos was the first Front Runner to finish the half in a blistering 1:29:21, which earned
her 6th in age. She was followed by a slew of runners who set PR’s, including Leah
Serinksy 1:29:48 (9th in age), Manny Romero 1:30:17, Kevin McCahill 1:33:44, Michelle
Mazzarra 1:39:03 (11th in age), and Jesus Martinez 1:54:56 (21 minute PR). Others to
complete the hilly course were Dave Caraway 1:46:30, Dominic Aloia 1:46:39, Kenny Harmon
2:13:45, Jim Diego 2:35:01 (State #30 on his quest for all 50), Daniel Rodriguez
2:45:39, and the relay team "FRNY Beavers," Stacey Cooper and Doreen Yankopoulos in
2:51:19. The full marathoners who survived a 300 foot climb at mile 20 were local tour
guide Gilbert Gaona 3:28:41, Giovanny L?on 3:41:40 (PR and 19th marathon), and Miki
Marrioti. Lastly, Katrina Amaro ran along the runners and cheered them on with a special
FRNY Cheer Zone! If these races weren’t enough, Giovanny, Kenny and Jim also earned the
Remix medal by completing the 5k on Saturday. The giant San Diego crew, competing
in the half marathon and marathon distances! Back home, on a hot and sticky
Saturday morning, 81 Front Runners raced a loop of Central Park alongside the likes of
New York City Marathon course record-holder Geoffrey Mutai and Gladys Cherono (who, only
a week ago, ran this year’s fastest road 10K) in the New York Road Runners Healthy
Kidney 10K. Front Runners excelled in this race. The women were led by Kat Uhlmansiek,
Anne Duquette, Lisa Rothman, Jenny Greissle and Diane Lowy. The men were led by Chris
Choi, Peter Macari, Connor Essick, Onesimo De Mira and Marty McElhiney. Marty proved to
all that he is back in racing form after a long injury-related hiatus, taking ninth
place in his age group (FRNY’s highest age group finish of the day!). Paul Racine took
11th in age, also demonstrating that he is fully back in fine form! Others making FRNY
proud in this race included David White, David Grudzien (who came from Georgia to join
us for this race!), Alan Brown (celebrating his one-year FRNY anniversary and a course
PR!) and Brandon Rush (course PR!). A few of the many runners of the Healthy
Kidney 10K A few other Front Runners opted to close out May with impressive
racing performances of their own in some interesting and difficult races. Maria Woehr
grabbed ninth in her division in the Hamden Hills Halfin Connecticut. The word
"hills" in the title was no joke; the local club hosting the race (the Shoreline Sharks)
have dubbed this "the toughest half-marathon and 5K in Connecticut," which seemed
appropriate given that the race was effectively hill repeats times 13.1 miles.
Myles Locke upped the ante in Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania, taking third overall and first
in age in theRun For Our Troops 5K, which actually turned out to be a 6K due to
some questionable course markings. But not to worry -- Myles still got it done in a 5:57
pace! Richard White, conqueror of 6th graders Richard White won the Powder
5K Race in Lake Huntington, New York. This was no ordinary race. Richard earned his
first place finish by running up steep hills while getting pelted with colored powder
and being chased by sixth graders. And Charlie Duncan completed an international
double, finishing the Bupa London 10K (his first overseas run, which included
part of the Olympic marathon course), and then, in true Scottish style, completing
the Edinburgh Marathon Festival Half-Marathon -- his first half -- in 1:57:05
despite pouring rain and 40 mph winds. Congratulations to all of our FRNY
athletes and happy Pride Month! More pictures from the past week of
racing: Clockwise from top left: Andrew Good, Giri Parameswaran, Ryan Greene, Bernie

donation to the club for $1,000! We just need 20 people per night! The event will
take place on Wednesday and Thursday, June 3-4, from 5pm to 9pm in Central Park. Come
hang out with fellow Front Runners and show those Corporate Challengers how much fun it
can be going through an aid station set up by FRNY! Sign up here. For more

30th, for a special session on cross-training, given by the chair of our multisport

FRNY is involved in (swimming, biking), and what it takes to complete a triathlon or
even an "Ironman"! As always, we welcome both new and current members
to join us for informational sessions, paced runs, and Saturday work-outs with
our FRNY coach, as we gear up for the Pride Run 5-miler on June 27th. No
registration is ever required for any of our activities -- just find us at the fun run
and stick around after bagels. Please sign up if you’d like to receive weekly
e-mails about the activities of the clinic, and feel free to reach out to
us if you have any questions or suggestions. Hope to see you there!

Goana and Jennifer Bougher are the new assistant coaches! I’m very happy that they

debuts at a distance and even your I-got-out-of-bed-and-ran-a-race races. To be included
in the FR Gram, please submit your race information before 12 pm on the
Tuesday of the week’s Gram. The temperatures are heating up and so
is the racing by our team members. Last Wednesday in Prospect Park, the troupe of Dan
Ferguson, Jerry McDonnell and Kurt Steinhouse picked up where they left off last year at
the Al Goldstein Speed Series. Dan set a PR in a scintillating 17:16, good for third
place overall. Jerry followed in 17:50, which earned him second in age, while Kurt
clocked a 19:54, ranking him fourth in his age group. Through the merry hills of
the Bronx, three Front Runners participated in the Van Cortlandt Park Summer Series.
Leading the way in the 5K was Christopher Strouse in 24:09, followed by Dave Pitches in
27:06 (third in age). Jill Crouther completed the course in 29:33.The weekend saw Ben
Corbett tackle the People’s United Bank Vermont City Marathon in 3:19:21. John Grunert
and Fernando Aguilar teamed up for the exact same time as Ben in the team relay. Way to
keep it consistent fellas! Also up north, Beth Strickland took in the beautiful scenery
of the Scotiabank Ottawa Half-Marathon in 3:13:54.Also on the international front, this
weekend Zander Ross (4:25:09) and Rich Ervais (3:37:57) took to the streets of
Copenhagen for a marathon. Extra kudos go to Zander for helping to pace a runner who was
struggling with the distance.Back in the U.S.A., Richard White completed the Chester
Kiwanis 5K in Orange County, N.Y. in 19:35. Richard was able to handle a tricky
fluctuation in temperature to take third in age. Beth Strickland following the Ottawa
Half Marathon! Sunday saw Front Runners descend on Rumson, N.J. for the 10th Annual
NAV-E-SINK OR SWIM. Dan Ferguson (59:58.4), Dave Lin (1:16:53.8) and Marcus Woolen
(1:17:14.7) completed the 2.4-mile swim in the frigid waters. Dave Laurence (35:46.9)

Memorial Day Half-Marathon on Monday. American Pharoah take note: Mr. Grudzien is coming

on Sunday to strike another state off his list. Jim Diego in another half
marathon! On a toasty Memorial Day, three Front Runners tackled the NYCRUNS Memorial Day
Ice Cream Social 5K on Roosevelt Island. Richard Nguyen stopped the clock in an even
21:00. David White ran a 21:17, which ranked him fourth in age while Jennifer Bougher
ran a 24:16. In Greenwich, Connecticut, Dave Pitches spent the day winning his age group

Brooklyn Pride 5K on June 13th is currently at 470 registered runners and has a capacity
of not much than 500. If you want to run this great local community race being
co-directed by our very own Dan Ferguson and Gilbert Gaona, SIGN UP NOW! Help with the
Corporate Challenge It’s real simple: We need 20 volunteers on both nights of the run.
We only have 8. Help be one of special 20. Details below in Volunteer Opportunities.
Beginner’s Clinic This week’s Beginner’s Clinic will be on long distance running. Fresh
off his 46-mile Grand Canyon run, co-long run director Connor Essick will be on hand to
share his pearls of wisdom after the Saturday fun run. NYC Runs InterClub Challenge Next
Wednesday, May 27th, the NYC Runs InterClub Challenge continues with the second 5k in
its Riverside Park series. FRNY is hosting this race, and after a strong performance in
the first race we’d love an even bigger turnout for this one! Race or volunteer, just
make sure to bring your FRNY pride by wearing your singlet. Stick around afterwards for
al fresco food and drink at Ellington in the Park! Contact the Race
Captains if you can help volunteer! We still need 5 more bodies to help put on this
great race. So far the Men’s Team is in 1st place in the series and the Women’s Team is
in 3rd. Let’s show the other clubs and take the title this year! It’s almost June and
that means it’s time for our ever-popular Pride Run Kickoff Happy Hour. The event takes
place on Thursday, June 4, from 6:30-9:30 p.m. at Boxers HK (Ninth Avenue at 50th
Street). Enjoy drink specials and raffles with fabulous prizes including VIP tickets to
the Pier Dance, a $50 gift certificate to Bettolona restaurant and a gift certificate
for two to City Winery. All the proceeds from the raffles and shot sales go toward the
sold-out June 27 Pride Run. Also, save the date: The Pride Run Brunch is set for Sunday,
June 14. Watch for time, place and other details, including a few surprises. Because New
York Road Runners does not provide our club with the Pride Run proceeds until late in
the year, your support at these events helps FRNY meet the costs of producing and
promoting the race. Brooklyn Pride March + Festival FRNY will be representing at
Brooklyn Pride on Saturday, June 13th. We’ll have a booth during the festival on Fifth
Avenue from 11am-5pm, and then we’ll march in the parade at 7:30pm. It’s a lot of fun
and a great way to potential new members. Click here to sign up and volunteer. If
you have any questions, email brooklyn@frny.org. After the parade, Mike Grzelecki will
be hosting an after party at 670 President Street Apt 3C (between 5th and 6th
Ave), 8-11pm. Bring your favorite beverage or finger food to share. Staten Island
Pride Run Now in its second year, The Staten Island Pride 5K is open for
registration. This 5K is registered for competitive runners, and will take place
on the grounds of Snug Harbor Cultural Center & Botanical Gardens. Tracking
chips, race bibs, and race statistics are available to runners in each age
category. Queens Pride For the second year in a row, FRNY will be taking part in
Queens Pride on Sunday, June 7th in Jackson Heights! The parade begins
at noon and the festival follows. This is a great way to support FRNY and
to kick-off a month of Pride activities. Help to promote FRNY by signing up to
volunteer at our festival booth here Additional information, location,
directions, neighborhood bars and restaurants can be found on this map. Please
contact Matt Pych with any questions. JP Morgan Corporate Challenge
FRNY has been asked to coordinate a water station for both nights of this year’s
JPMorgan Chase Corporate Challenge, a 3.2-mile race in Central Park celebrating its 39th
year. In exchange for providing our fabulous water station services, we have secured a
donation to the club for $1,000! We just need 20 people per night! The event will
take place on Wednesday and Thursday, June 3-4, from 5pm to 9pm in Central Park. Come
hang out with fellow Front Runners and show those Corporate Challengers how much fun it
can be going through an aid station set up by FRNY! Sign up here. For more
information, contact Women’s VP Stacey Cooper. We Need Bagelers! Warmer days are
finally here and Director at Large Elke Gasselseder is thrilled to see so many people
back at the Saturday fun run. However, fun runs wouldn’t be the same without
awesome people willing to help out. If you haven’t volunteered in a while, please e-mail
her. We are desperate for baglers and have many dates available. Added bonus for you:
bageling counts as 30 mins of cross-training Mile 24 Water Station Hey Everyone! It’s
that time of year again, no not Christmas...but better! It’s marathon training season!
While most you are busy running those sexy legs off getting ready for the big day, those
�of us who aren’t running will hopefully be signing up to volunteer at the prettiest
water station, and the best ever cheer zone at FRNY’s Mile 24 Water Station! To
sign up, just login to My NYRR (or create a new account) and click on the
"Volunteer" button on the left. Next, scroll down to "Volunteer for the TCS New York
City Marathon," then "Fluid Stations 2015 TCS New York City Marathon," and then click on

Rich Velazquez, always a welcome presence at New York Road Runners points races,
showed why at the Brooklyn Half, leading the Front Runners New York men’s team with a
sizzling 1:17:31 and snagging the highest FRNY age placement (fifth) in this
ultracompetitive race. Ably abetted by Myles Lock (1:20:24), Dan Ferguson (1:21:01),
Breandan Ward (1:22:21) and Matthew Collins-Gibson (1:22:27), Rich paced the men to an
11th-place finish among 99 teams. Myles walked away from Coney Island with a monstrous
5:03 PR and his best age-graded percentage (AG%) ever, 73.66. All five leading FRNY men
notched an AG% in the mid- to upper 70s, as Rich topped the troupe with a 76.97%.Yoshie
Yabu, the Fukui Flash, steered FRNY’s women to 31st place among 99 teams, stopping the
clock at 1:35:22 and ringing up an eighth-in-age with a 75.55 AG%. Hot in pursuit came
Michelle Mazzara (1:44:43), Anne Duquette (1:48:00), Brenda Dornellas (1:49:35) and Elke
Gasselseder (1:50:52). Our top five women average 41 years in age and the youngest is
35. Two hundred forty Front Runners prowled predawn subways to the Brooklyn Museum
start, then paid their respects to Montgomery Clift by racing a circle around
his grave in Friends Cemetery, which lies dead center in Prospect Park. Resisting
pre-race egg creams (the fabled Brooklyn fountain drink that contains Rich
Velazquez in fine form. Photo credit: benkophotography.com neither eggs nor cream) but
gobbling a few Nathan’s Famous franks at the finish, the Front Runner team amply
flaunted its racing breadth and depth. L-R: Brian Schroeder, Mike Grzelecki,
Gilbert Gaona, Jessie Lopez-GarayPhoto courtesy Gilbert Gaona Ten years ago, FRNY’s
fifth man finished in a commendable 1:31:29. This year 27 FRNY men beat that time. Ten
years ago, seven Front Running women completed the Brooklyn demi-marathon. This year, 41
female Fronties dashed from mid-borough to the Atlantic. Did many Front Runners reach
the august 70 AG% echelon? Does Brooklyn have a storied bridge? Besides the
already-mentioned top five men and Yaby Yabu, 13 other Mebophiles made the grade, with
Rick Buckheit claiming top honors (77.11%), followed by Robert Williams, Jr, Jeremy
Reiss, Gen Watanabe, Richard Ervais, Giri Parameswaran, Larry Giannechini, Connor
Essick, Brendan Moroney, Chris Choi, Matthew Browne, Mike McMahon and Mark Mascolini.How
about 80 AG%? Richard White did it again. Leading both the Masters Men (40+) and the
Vets Men (50+) with an 80.41%, Richard got to the boardwalk before the cloudburst in
1:26:59 and completed the top-10 FRNY Hall of Heroes with an eighth-in-age. On top of
all that, Richard recorded a 53-second PR in this, his 66th half-marathon.
Joining Richard in securing 17th place for the FRNY Masters, Onesimo DeMira posted
a 1:29:27 and Gen Watanabe a 1:30:23. FRNY’s men’s Vets team came home in seventh place,
with Rick Buckheit (1:32:22) and Robert Williams, Jr (1:32:55) backing up Richard in the
scoring. The FRNY men’s Supervets (60+) also took seventh place on the churning legs of
Mark Mascolini (1:42:50), Syracuse commuter Stan More (1:49:53) and Alan Brown
(1:54:18). L-R: Diane Lowy, Ed Kennelly, Alan Brown, Ekong Ekong, Leonardo Aulestiarte,
Lucio RomeroPhoto courtesy Alan Brown Yaby Yabu headed up FRNY’s women’s Masters
with her 1:32:22, followed by Michelle Mazzara (1:44:43) and Wendy Lai (1:52:45), as the
threesome took 15th place. FRNY women Vets Faith Tempest (1:58:51), Doreen Yankopoulos
(2:43:21) and Sarah Garrison (2:50:38) rallied for a 22nd-place finish. Other
Brooklyns to boast about came from Eulalia Brooks, who ran her first half-marathon,
earning her spot at the start line by volunteering for the New York City Half with Front
Runners and completing her 13.1 with sturdy support from Ruth Gursky. Also making his
half-marathon debut, Nevin Cohen brought it home in 1:41:17. Craig Goodwin-Ortiz De Le?n
rebounded for his best half in three years while Miki Mariotti, started his race in
Times Square at 4:40 a.m., thereby turning the half-marathon into the tail end of a
22-mile long run. Besides Myles Lock and Richard White, eight other Front Runners
reported PRs in Brooklyn: Thomas Wu sliced 4:28 off his previous half best with a
2:12:03, Brandon Rush chopped almost three minutes off his prior best with a 1:37:09 and
Manny Romero sailed across the boardwalk finish with a 1:31:05 PR. Kevin McCahill
snapped off a 1:34:19, improving his half-marathon mark by 3:10, while Andrew Good
excised 2:24 from his 2014 Brooklyn half with a 1:34:17. Chris Choi needed only 1:21:25
�to get from the Brooklyn Museum to Nathan’s Famous, a PR of nearly one minute. Victor
Huwe reset his half-marathon PR about three minutes lower with a 1:37:43. And Ed
Kennelly, back from eight months in Asia that included four halves, chose Brooklyn for
his 1:47:30 PR. Outside the birth borough of Mel Brooks and Ruth Bader Ginsburg,
David Grudzien finished with the Finnish in his 18th half marathon of 2015, a 2:25:04 in
the Helsinki City Run. David’s younger doppelg?nger, Jim Diego, sewed up his fourth
consecutive weekend featuring Saturday-Sunday L-R: Ruth Gursky, Eulalia Brooks
half-marathons, first the Sage Rat Run in Prosser, Washington (2:33:37), then the
Portland Rock’n’Roll Half (2:31:31). The two races represent Jim’s 20th and 21st halves
in 2015. And our statisticians calculate 7.5 months remaining in the year. Phil
Wahba was FRNY’s only marathoner this week. He battled heat and stifling humidity in
Green Bay, Wisconsin, to finish his 37th marathon in 4:29:34. A few days before
the half-marathon weekend, six Front Runners teamed for the Try Audiobooks Riverside
Park Series 5K - all of them finishing with single-digit age placements: Dan Ferguson
(third in age, eighth overall, 18:38), Jerry McDonnell (first in age, 11th overall,
18:50), Richard White (first in age, 13th overall, 19:50), Dave Lin (seventh in age,
21:51), Jennifer Bougher (third in age, 24:47), and Tom Malcolm (second in age, 25:30).
L-R: Dave Lin, Jennifer Bougher, Richard White, Dan Ferguson, Tom Malcolm, Jerry
McDonnellPhoto courtesy Bernd Erpenbeck Not content with their Saturday
romps from Prospect to Coney, FRNY’s White knights (David and Richard) joined Jennifer
Bougher on Sunday in lower Manhattan for the NYPD Memorial 5K. Jennifer covered the five
kilometers in 24:16 and snared sixth place in her 124-woman age group. David ripped off
a 21:12, good for an eighth-in-age finish. Waltzing in at 19:36, Richard went home with
a first in age. On the same day, Chris Choi challenged his Brooklyn-weary legs in
his debut sprint triathlon at Lake Welch, New York, finishing on the podium biting
bronze with third place overall. Meanwhile, three Front Runners who traipsed through
Brooklyn on Saturday essayed an Olympic-distance tri at New Jersey’s Six Flags park on
Sunday and lived to tell about it (not to mention finish): Marcus Woollen (3:04:39),
Brendan McLellan (3:07:31) and Giordano Fusco (3:25:15). Tony Chanthavong ran Brooklyn
and finished the Six Flags sprint tri in 1:47:34. Also in the sprint, Bob Wei took
second in age with a 1:53:41 and Justin Ruaysamran got the job done in 1:43:19.
L-R: Bob Wei, Tony Chanthavong, Marcus Woollen, Brendan McLellan, ??, Giovanny Leon,

Saturday, Yaby Yabu hopped on her bike and raced 100 miles in the Gran Fondo New York on
Sunday, rolling across the finish line with a seventh in age and 37th among 246 women.

Guidelines To submit a piece for the race report, complete this form
before 12 PM on the Tuesday before the Gram. To submit an activity, event or
announcement, email Steven before noon on the Wednesday before the Gram comes
out. Only events produced specifically for and by Front Runners will be published. Gram
announcements are at the Board’s discretion. Run The Brooklyn Half Marathon!!! If you’re
not running the Brooklyn Half, join some non-runners to cheer our teammates: 1.)
Get On Your Bikes and Ride! Not running the Brooklyn Half? That’s no reason to
miss your 9 am beer and hot dog! A FRNY cycling squad will be heading over
to Coney Island to cheer and eat. Contact Kerri Fox for details.
2.) Brooklyn Half Cheer Zone The official FRNY Brooklyn Half Cheer Zone will be at
Kings Highway and Ocean Parkway, close to mile 10 of the race. Get there starting
at 8 am to cheer on your fellow FRNYers! Contact Patrick Hart with
questions. SOLD. OUT. Six weeks ahead of race day, the Pride Run is officially full!
Thank you to the hundreds of members who registered and encouraged their friends to sign
up. Because of your enthusiasm, this year’s race promises to be another huge success.
With Pride Month just around the corner, mark your calendars for a pair of events that
will add to the Pride Run fun. The Boxers Kick-Off Happy Hour Fundraiser takes place
Thursday, June 4, from 6:30-9:30 p.m. at Boxers HK (9th Avenue at 50th Street). There
will be raffles and drink specials and all of the proceeds will go toward the Pride Run.
On Sunday, June 14, join us for the Pride Run Brunch. Watch for time, location and other
details, including a few surprises. New York Road Runners will not be giving FRNY
the Pride Run proceeds until well after the race. Your support at these events helps our
club defray the costs of producing and promoting the Pride Run. JP Morgan
Corporate Challenge FRNY has been asked to coordinate a water station for both nights of
this year’s JPMorgan Chase Corporate Challenge, a 3.2-mile race in Central Park
celebrating its 39th year. In exchange for providing our fabulous water station
services, we have secured a donation to the club for $1,000! We just need 20 people per
night! The event will take place on Wednesday and Thursday, June
3-4, from 5pm to 9pm in Central Park. Come hang out with fellow Front Runners
and show those Corporate Challengers how much fun it can be going through an aid station
set up by FRNY! Sign up here. For more information, contact Women’s
VP Stacey Cooper. NYC Runs InterClub Challenge FRNY has also been chosen to sponsor
the May 27th race in the NYC Runs Riverside 5K Summer Series! We need 10-12
volunteers to show up in their FRNY singlets and help out with the race. This is a
great way to promote the club, mingle with other local running clubs, and compete
against the other clubs outside of the same Central Park loop. Contact the Race
Captains if you can help. We Need Bagelers! We are working on a lovely,
synchronized online signup sheet but until that happens we’re going to do this the old
fashioned way! If you are free on Saturday morning to help our runners refuel after the
fun run, please contact Director at Large Elke Gasselseder and we will put you to
work! Queens Pride For the second year in a row, FRNY will be taking part in
Queens Pride on Sunday, June 7th in Jackson Heights! The parade begins at noon and the
festival follows. This is a great way to support FRNY and to kick-off a month of Pride
activities. If you are interested in helping to make this outing both fun and
successful, please contact Matt Pych. More details will follow in future FRNY
grams. FRNY Hoedown! Even if you have two left feet you will have a great time
two-stepping with FRNY. Break out your boots or grab your ten-gallon hat, or just come
as you are to the Big Apple Ranch on Saturday, May 23rd at 8pm . The
ranch is located on the 4th floor of 25 West 31st (betw 5th/6th aves). Lessons
start at 8 PM . You will then be able to show off your new skills on the
dance floor at 9 PM . $15 per person. The ranch also has various beverages
available for sale. For more information, reach out to Jean Simeon Every
year there are special races FRNY makes an effort to turn out for. These include
FRNY-sponsored races, NYRR Points Races, relays, local club races, and longtime FRNY
favorites. Below are the target races for spring, so be sure to think about signing up!
And there are plenty of additional racing opportunities on our racing spreadsheet. Be
sure to put your name down for all your races so your teammates know what you’re up to!
Not running? The club is always looking for volunteers to cheer and take photos!
Contact the Race Captains if you’re interested! 5/30 Dashing Whippets Track

#DropTheHammer. Last year there was a team competition and FRNY took 2nd, so let’s
represent this year!Visit their website for more information! 06/13 Brooklyn Pride 5K

The Race Captains love to celebrate ALL of your accomplishments: PRs, debuts at a
distance and even your I-got-out-of-bed-and-ran-a-race races. To be included in the FR
Gram, please submit your race information before 12 pm on the Tuesday of the
week’s Gram. More than 60 Front Runners started their Sunday by running New
York Road Runners Japan Day four-miler in Central Park. Jonathan Smith, running his
first four-miler, led the FRNY team on a humid and foggy morning with a PR time of 24:06
(6:02 pace), which also placed him seventh in his age group. Jon was followed by Onesimo
De Mira in 24:45 (who also scored the highest age-graded percentage of the day at 72.58
and placed ninth in his age-group), Joseph Chillemi (25:36), Brendan McLellan (27:01)
and Elbert Ma (27:07). First across the line for the FRNY women was Kathryn Uhlmansiek
in 29:07 (7:17 pace). Anne Duquette (30:02), Elke Gasselseder (31:34), Wendy Lai (32:31)
and Jennifer Bougher (32:59) rounded out our top five women. David Pitches (32:26 and
sixth in his age group) and Sam Lafata (43:50; fourth in age) also made it to the NYRR
Honor Roll. "Omedetoo gozaimasu" to all finishers! Alan Brown and Chris Strouse
Another group of Front Runners traveled to the other side of the Hudson to
participate in the 17th annual HOHA Classic Five-Miler, hosted by the Hoboken
Harriers. Dan Ferguson continued his impressive racing streak with a third-place overall
finish in 29:29 (5:53 pace). Reportedly, he added another "modest" trophy to his
collection. Connor Essick finished in 31:54 (6:22 pace), followed by Steve Vizena in
31:50 (6:22). Steve placed third in his age group with this performance. The FRNY team
was completed by Jason Fluegge, Manny Romero, Gilbert Gaona, Dennis Ng, Mike Markowitz,
Curtis Knecht and the four Daves: Caraway, Lin, Fausch and Pitches. Dave Pitches did
double duty that morning: He ran the Japan Day four-miler at 8 a.m. in Central Park and
then somehow made it to Hoboken for the 10 a.m. start of the five-miler. Great job of
representing FRNY in New Jersey! FRNY representing at the HOHA 5 Miler! Great job guys!
(but where are the women!?) Elsewhere, Richard White raced the Allyson Whitney 5K in
Lake Kauneonga, N.Y. With a time of 20:34, he placed eighth overall and first in his age
group. We also received reports from parts of the country a bit further away from
FRNY’s usual band of itinerant racers. David Grudzien added another half marathon to his
racing history, finishing the Running With the Cows Half Marathon in Kansas City, Kansas
in 2:20:17. Jim Diego worked triple shifts this weekend. First stop was Fargo, North
Dakota, where he ran a 5K on Friday night in 29:32, followed by the Fargo Half-Marathon
on Saturday morning in 2:08:39. He completed his weekend by running the Delaware
Half-Marathon on Sunday in 2:27:53. Congratulations to our dedicated long-distance
runners! Marcus Woollen represented the FRNY multisport team at the Neptune
Aquatic Center Try a Tri down the Jersey Shore. Marcus completed the super-sprint tri
distance (200-yard swim, three-mile bike ride, one-mile run) in 24:57 and earned first
place in his age group. This weekend’s key race will be the sold-out Brooklyn
Half Marathon. You can still support the team as part of our cheer zone. Also, a number
of low-key and affordable midweek race series (Riverside Park, Van Cortlandt Park,
�Prospect Park) will kick off soon and offers good opportunities to showcase your FRNY
singlet.

JPMorgan Chase Corporate Challenge, a 3.2-mile race in Central Park celebrating its 39th
year. In exchange for providing our fabulous water station services, we have secured a
donation to the club for $1,000! We just need 20 people per night! The event will
take place on Wednesday and Thursday, June 3-4, from 5pm to
9pm in Central Park. Come hang out with fellow Front Runners and show those
Corporate Challengers how much fun it can be going through an aid station set up by

wouldn’t it?!--the long runners will arrive at the end of their long run in time to
watch the race finish. If you’re planning to do the long run and want to drop a bag,
Mike and Dan Ferguson will be bringing bags from Mike’s apartment to the HoHa race

I-got-out-of-bed-and-ran-a-race races. To be included in the FR Gram, please submit
your race information before 12 pm on the Tuesday of the week’s Gram.
As everyone knows, May 3 is Polish Constitution Day. And no one celebrates Polish
Constitution Day like Front Runners New York. To mark the holiday, a determined group of
Front Runners headed to Forest Park in Queens for the Polish Constitution Day Five-Mile
�Trail Run. It was the second year for this race, and for the second time, Dan Ferguson
came in first overall. Dan’s victory, in 31:53, touched off a frenzy among the
Polish-American media, much like the circus surrounding the previous night’s
Mayweather-Pacquiao fight. Except not really. FRNY @ the Polish Constitution Day 5-Mile
Trail RunPhoto courtesy Gilbert Gaona While Dan affirmed his ownership of this event,
four other Front Runners won their age groups (prize: a coffee tumbler). The four were
Gilbert Gaona (35:25; fourth overall), Manny Romero, Dave Caraway and Sam LaFata.
Brenton Bellomy and David White took third in their age brackets. And Jennifer Bougher
took eighth place overall among the women. A day earlier, Jennifer snagged a huge
trophy by finishing second in her age group at the Bronx Community College Run the Bronx
5K in -- yup -- the Bronx. David White (22:30) grabbed second in age. Sam won fourth
place in his age group. Meanwhile, with a paucity of major
local races last weekend, Front Runners spread across the continent in search of mileage
and medals. At the Broad Street Run in Philadelphia, Maria Woehr covered the 10-mile
course in 1:41, while Stacey Cooper got back in the racing game after an extended
absence and finished in 2:35. Jim Diego nailed the feat of running back-to-back
half-marathons on back-to-back weekends. On Saturday, he ran the 500 Festival
Mini-Marathon in Indianapolis, reaching the finish inside the famed Indianapolis Motor
Speedway in 2:15:04. On Sunday, he finished the Flying Pig Half-Marathon in Cincinnati
in 2:26:54. (The weekend before, he raced in Tennessee and Connecticut.) Not to
be outdone, half-marathon meister David Grudzien ran five half-marathons on five
consecutive days (April 29-May 3) as part of the Independence Half-Marathon Series,
which involved races in Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New Paltz, N.Y.
Up north, Ralph Rodriguez scored a personal record and achieved his goal of breaking
2:20 in a half, finishing the Toronto Half-Marathon in 2:19:32. Lucilla Rastelli flew to
the other side of Canada and ran the Vancouver Half-Marathon in 1:59:40, with Kerri Fox
cheering from the sidelines. Diane Westerback on Saturday took on the North Face
Endurance Challenge half-marathon at Bear Mountain and finished in 3:54:30.FRNYs
marathoners also rambled far and wide. Giovanny Leon PRd by a whopping 16:10 at the
Toronto Marathon, finishing in 3:42:23. Bernie Janelle and Cindy Hearing conquered the
mountainous Colorado Marathon in Ft. Collins. Cindy finished in 4:50:48, Bernie in
5:24:05. Richard Ervais and Zander Ross discovered that Rhode Island is, in fact, large
enough to contain a marathon course. At the Providence Marathon, Richard posted a
3:44:31 while Zander crossed the line in 3:58:18. In Washington, Mike Markowitz finished
the Potomac River Run Marathon in 4:06:25. Cindy Hearing and Bernie Janelle after
the Colorado Marathon in Ft. Collins. Photo courtesy Bernie Janelle
Multisport athletes got it on this weekend, too. Marcus Woollen took first place in his
age group at the Bubble (sprint) Triathlon at Camp Zehnder in Wall, N.J. Craig
Goodwin-Ortiz de Leon participated in Bike for the Bridge, a 27-mile ride to benefit The
Bridge Academy, a New Jersey school for kids with learning disabilities. Three FRNYers
took part in Sunday’s Nescopeck Time Trials in Pennsylvania. The event was a 16-mile
bike challenge in which riders began from a standing start at 30-second intervals and
raced against a clock instead of a pack of rival cyclists. Gen Watanabe finished in
45:28 (third in age, 12th overall). Tim Guscott clocked a 48:35 finish, good for sixth
in age. David K. Pitches won his age group in 56:48. L-R: Gen Watanabe, Dave Pitches,
Tim GuscottPhoto courtesy Tim Guscott Finally, Mel Cantorias, Connor
Essick, Dave Lin and Kurt Steinhouse ventured to Arizona to tackle the Rim-to-Rim-to-Rim
challenge at the Grand Canyon. This was not an official race; it’s just a thing that
people do. For some reason. Amid breathtaking vistas -- and with Michael Benjamin and
Steve Waldon on hand for support -- the four ran and hiked down one side of the canyon,
crossed the bottom of the chasm, then trekked back up the other side. Then they did it
all over again in reverse. Total round-trip distance: 44 miles (at least) and more than
11,000 feet of vertical climbing. Michael Benjamin (foreground, bottom
left); Connor Essick, Kurt Steinhouse, Mel Cantorias, and Dave Lin (somewhere
running across the canyon and back!). Photo courtesy Steven Waldon Next on
the calendar: Front Runners return to the considerably friendlier terrain of Central
Park for the sold-out New York Road Runners Japan Run four-miler on May 10. That same
day, a number of FRNYers plan to defend the team’s title at the HoHa Classic five-miler
in Hoboken and celebrate afterward. The race is still open. Join in!

With the temperatures finally cooperating and the sun shining, Front Runners are
finding more and more opportunities to get outside and race! Track racers Gilbert Gaona,
Myles Lock, Jessie Lopez-Garay and Justin Stolarik kicked off the racing on Thursday
night at the NBR McCarren Park Track Classic in Brooklyn. The team competed in both the
Sprint Medley Relay, in which it took second place, and the 4x400, in which it secured
fourth place. Myles and John Fallot also competed in the mile race, with Myles finishing
in 5:07 and John in 6:58. L-R: Justin, Jessie, Myles, Gilbert, and John F compete at
NBR’s Friday night track meet On Saturday, Sam LaFata won his age group at the Red Hook
Criterium 5K in Brooklyn, finishing the race in 32:03! On Sunday morning in Central
Park, 79 Front Runners enjoyed 54-degree temperatures and low humiditywhile racing in
the New York Road Runners Run as One four-miler. Leading the women were Ashley Marie
Ortiz (29:43), Anne Duquette (30:35), Dani Schubert (34:13), Emilia Tamburri (35:45) and
Erica Weisgerber (36:17), with Maria Woehr (36:40) right on their heels and enjoying her
transition to the roads after a long winter of treadmill running. The FRNY men were led
by Myles Lock (23:35, PR!), Chris Choi (24:40), Onesimo De Mira (25:08), Richard White
(25:22) and Manny Romero (25:44). Richard took second place in his age group and
registered an AG percentage of 79.13 while Myles took fifth in age and secured an AG
percentage of 71.49. Onesimo and Manny also broke the 70-percent AG mark, as did Marty
McElhiney, who returned to racing after a too-long injury hiatus. David White celebrated
being the second FRNY finisher with the surname "White." And Charlie Duncan (28:48) and
David Grudzien (36:32) each notched PRs. Special congratulations are also in order for
our 60+ men, who owned the race: Tom Malcolm took 13th in the 60-64 group; Stephen
Rodgers took 12th and Scott Emmons came in 19th in the 65-69 group, and Sam LaFata won
third in the 75-79 age group.In Arlington, Texas, Jennifer Bougher was the lone
non-Texan to participate in the Lone Star Mayor’s Cup 5K on Sunday, and to the dismay of
the locals, she snagged the bronze medal in the women’s race after finishing third
overall and first in age. Myles Lock placing first for the men’s team Closer to home,
Front Runners took to the roads in eastern Queens for the Alley Pond Striders Five-Mile
Challenge to earn some local club racing credit. Less than a week after racing the
Boston Marathon, Dan Ferguson led the FRNY contingent in 30:28 and took third overall.
Gilbert Gaona crossed the line sixth overall (and first in age) in 33:18. And Patrick
Hart grabbed third in his age group with a 39:00 finish. FRNY racers reported having the
"best cheer zone" thanks to Dave Lin, Craig Goodwin-Ortiz deLeon, Dave Laurence and Mike
McMahon. L-R: Mike McMahon, Dave Laurence, Patrick Hart, Dan Ferguson, Dave Lin, Craig
Goodwin-Ortiz de Leon, Gilbert Gaona in Alley Pond Park Winter training paid big
dividends for the many Front Runners who competed on Sunday in the New Jersey Marathon
and Half Marathon. Twelve completed the marathon. First to finish was Tom Crimmins
(3:34:31), followed by Gen Watanabe (3:44:13), Ekong Ekong (3:53:31) and Giovanny Leon
(4:03:04). Next came the quartet of Colin Meret (4:05:54, first marathon), Chris Strouse
(4:05:54), Alan Brown (4:05:55, first marathon and BQ!) and Connor Essick (4:05:55).
Right behind them were 4:10 pace leader Tim Guscott (4:09:53), Marcus Woollen (4:25:27)
Sam Sanders (4:33:01, 21-minute PR!), and Alison McKenna (5:47:58, first post-injury
�marathon). We were delighted to see Dave Pitches return to racing, with a 2:13:54
half-marathon finish. And Brenton Bellomy completed the half in 1:39:32, breaking the
1:40 mark for the first time! Unofficial pacers Connor Essick and Chris Strouse led
first-time marathoners Alan Brown and Colin Meret to a 4:05:55 marathon debut. Alan was
able to qualify for the 2016 Boston Marathon in his first try! Out in Oklahoma, Brandon
Rush completed the Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon in 3:40:02 (a five-minute PR!), while
further west, Phil Wahba finished the Big Sur Marathon in 4:13:32. Jim Diego continued
his heroics, racing the hilly Country Music Nashville Half Marathon on Saturday in
2:16:31, then flying to New York, driving to Connecticut, sleeping in his car and racing
a slightly faster time (2:16:27) in the Cheshire Half-Marathon on Sunday.
Congratulations to all FRNY racers! L-R: Daniel Rodriguez, Sam Sanders, Brenton
Bellomy, Cristian Contreras after the NJ Half + Full Marathon

Walking Gram Submission Guidelines To submit a piece for the race report,
complete this form before 12 PM on the Tuesday before the Gram. To submit an
activity, event or announcement, email Steven before noon on the Wednesday
before the Gram comes out. Only events produced specifically for and by Front Runners
will be published. Gram announcements are at the Board’s discretion. Before we get to
the meat of the Gram, I want to offer my sincere congratulations to all who ran the
119th Boston Marathon on April 20th. Boston is the oldest continual marathon in the
world and has an unparalleled history in the world of running. Qualifying for the
marathon represents years of hard work and training, and we had a dozen Front Runners
(and friends) running this year. You inspire us all and I thank you for representing the
club so well. -Steven Waldon A few new additions to this week’s Gram. See the body of
the e-mail for full details! There are three exciting Summer 5K Series starting
up next month. Fill your calendar up now. Queens Pride is a thing that exists. Order
your multisport uniforms now. NYC Marathon Baggage Options! The time has arrived when
all those running the NYC Marathon can begin selecting a baggage option! Zander
Ross has again graciously offered to let FRNY runners use his apartment,
conveniently located near the finish line, as a marathon bag drop. So you can
select the "no baggage" option, and then after the race collect your fleece poncho and
head to Zander’s place where you’ve left warm clothes for yourself. More details will be
available in the fall, but if you have any questions now contact longruns@frny.org For
the official NYRR policy, click here. Women’s Ultra Workshop The second mini-workshop in
our series will take place after this Saturday’s fun run and will focus on ultra
marathons. Ultras are gaining in popularity and this is the place to find out how you
can start training for one. Our experts will include Cindy Hearing, Bernie
Janelle, and Michelle Johnson. They’ll discuss how you can start training for ultras,
how to find a beginner friendly ultra, and what equipment you need. Did you know
that our very own Pride Run is one of the largest five-mile races in the United States?
The most recent numbers from Running USA rank the Pride Run as the nation’s
seventh-largest five-miler (and two of the races listed ahead of it are, technically, a
little under five miles). Don’t miss your chance to run of the biggest, best races of
its kind! More than 300 Front Runners are already signed up for the June 27 run. Make
sure you register before it sells out. And consider getting your company or
organization involved as a sponsor: Download the Pride Run Sponsor Packet. May
Board Meeting The next board meeting will take place on Monday, May 11th, at Steve
Waldon’s apartment (249 Malcolm X Blvd, Apt 1, NY NY 10027). Dinner will begin
at 7PM, and the meeting will begin at 7:30PM. The draft agenda is
here. If you have any agenda items, please email the write-up to
Brian by Friday 5/8 at noon. RSVP if you plan to attend, so that we know how
much food to prepare. Beginner’s Clinic As the weather outside keeps getting more
gorgeous every day, our FRNY Beginners Clinic is kicking it into high gear. Ever wonder
what to wear for a sunny Fun Run? How about a windy half marathon? Please join us after
announcements this Saturday, April 25th, for a session on "Proper running gear for
all weather conditions," given by our very own FRNY president, Mr. Steven Waldon!
As always, we welcome both new and current members to join us for informational
sessions, paced runs, and Saturday work-outs with our FRNY coach, as we gear
up for the Pride Run 5-miler on June 27th. No registration is ever required
for any of our activities -- just find us at the fun run and stick around after
bagels. Please sign up if you’d like to receive weekly e-mails about
the activities of the clinic, and feel free to reach out to us if you have
any questions or suggestions. Hope to see you there! -Dave, Tim, Jonathan, and Lucilla
Queens Pride Meeting For the second year in a row, FRNY will be taking part in
Queens Pride on Sunday, June 7th! If you are interested in helping to make this
outing both fun and successful, please join the first 2015 Queens Pride
planning meeting following the fun run on Saturday, May 2nd. If you are unable to
make this meeting, but you are interested in helping out or you have any questions,
please feel free to contact Matt Pych. New Ambassador Program! The FRNY Diversity
Committee is proud to announce the new Ambassador Program. Ambassadors, like Bagelers,
sign up to introduce themselves to new runners and be as welcoming as possible. Unlike
bagelers, you still get to run and eat like everyone else! Members of the Diversity
Committee may ask you to run or eat brunch with newcomers so no one feels left out. To
sign up, list your name during the times that work for you on this spreadsheet. If
you have any questions, contact diversity@frny.org. Spring Cleaning Clothes Drive
It doesn’t take much to put a smile on someone’s face. Giving a homeless person a clean
shirt is a surefire way to do it. We all have a few items buried in our closets we have
never worn and never will. Get rid of them and bring them to Rutger’s church on a fun
run Saturday. Knowing you helped a person in need will put a smile on your face too.
Multisport Uniforms A wide selection of FRNY triathlon and biking uniforms is now
available through Champion Systems. To check out what they have or to place
an order, go to here. Under "Team Member Login," put "frny" for the team and
�"multisport" for the password. Ready to get your game on? The FRNY Social
Committee invites you to GAY GAYMZ! Come enjoy Jenga, classic board games and
cards. There’ll even be a coloring station to bring out the artist (or child) in
you! We promise a fun night. Only the game pieces will be board. Where:
Lucilla’s Apt When: April 24 7 pm - 11 pm Attire: Game night causal.
OR: decked out for cards, Jeff Trebec look alike, Twister dots, your favorite Monopoly
game piece. Sign Up: Space is limited to 30. Give us a clue EARLY if you’re coming or
you risk putting your chance to play in jeopardy. Networking Social: Our Annual
Professional Networking Social is back! On Fri, May 8, Front Runners in a professional
environment will mix-n-mingle at 6PM, followed by five FRNY speakers at 7PM. Networking
follows for the rest of the evening so you can meet others in your profession, consider
a career change, or look for work-so, bring your business cards. Business attire
suggested, but not required. A group dinner in the neighborhood starts at 9:45PM. Our
location this year is the shiny, new offices of Front Runner, Martin Vandersmann at 445
Park Avenue ( btw 56 & 57), 11th Fl. RSVP required to enter the building. RSVP to
social@frny.org Every year there are special races FRNY makes an effort to turn
out for. These include FRNY-sponsored races, NYRR Points Races, relays, local club
races, and longtime FRNY favorites. Below are the target races for spring, so be sure to
think about signing up! And there are plenty of additional racing opportunities on our
racing spreadsheet. Be sure to put your name down for all your races so your teammates
know what you’re up to! Not running? The club is always looking for volunteers to
cheer and take photos! Contact the Race Captains if you’re interested! 4/26 Alley
Pond Striders 5-Mile Want to earn local club credit in one of the farthest flung corners
of the city? Then come out to Alley Pond Park! A group will be leaving from Rutgers
Church at 7:45 am if you feel uncomfortable traveling to such forbidding

at a local eatery TBD. Register today. 5/3 Polish Constitution Day 5 Mile

After winning the team competition at the HOHA Classic 5 Miler last year, FRNY
enjoyed mimosas and manmosas at Wicked Wolf Tavern in libertine Hoboken, New Jersey,
where anything goes, including pre-noonSundaydrinking! Join us this year as we try to
defend our crown and earn local club racing credit. Sign up today and make
sure to put your team as Front Runners when you do! 06/13 Brooklyn Pride
5K Registration is now open for the Brooklyn Pride 5k on June 13th!
We’ll be offering the same great race experience as last year, including: chip timing,
tech t-shirts, and custom Brooklyn Pride Run finisher’s medals.

Award. Last year we sold out weeks before the race, so register today! UPCOMING

so let’s represent this year! Warm weather is coming and bringing with it the
return of midweek local club racing to Prospect, Van Cortlandt, and Riverside Parks.
Prospect Park Track Club’s Al Goldstein 5k Summer Speed Series will be held
on alternating Wednesdays on May 20, June 3 & 17, July 1, 15, & 29,
and August 12 in Prospect Park. Test yourself on the grueling back hills
of Van Cortlandt Park in Van Cortlandt Track Club’s summer 5k cross-country
races on the following Thursdays: May 21, June 4 & 18, July
2 (relay), 16 & 30, and August 13. Races in both series are intimate,
informal, and (most importantly!) inexpensive, and attract a regular crowd of FRNY
runners. This summer NYC Runs is turning its annual 5k series in Riverside
Park into its 2015 InterClub Challenge (see here for more information about
the InterClub Challenge). Show FRNY pride and test your speed against other local clubs
in races that cost a mere $10 apiece on May 13 & 27, June 10 &
24, July 15 & 22, and August 5 & 19. FRNY has also been chosen to
�sponsor the May 27th race in this series! We need 10-12 volunteers to show up
in their FRNY singlets and help out with the race. In return FRNY gets to designate the
race beneficiary. Contact the Race Captains ( racecaptains@frny.org) if you can help. So
come join us for one (or many!) of the exciting weeknight racing opportunities this
summer! NYRR 2015 Calendar NYRR has opened registration for more races. Don’t wait to

The grandaddy of all American distance events -- the Boston Marathon -- capped
off an exciting week of racing that saw Front Runners tackle a variety of challenges in
multiple locations. Front Runner women and men turned in inspiring performances on the
26.2-mile journey from Hopkinton to Downtown Boston. But before that, on Sunday,
it was the women’s team’s turn to shine at the MORE/FITNESS/SHAPE Women’s Half-Marathon
in Central Park. Faith Tempest was the first of 11 FRNYers to finish, crossing the line
in 2:04:20. She was followed by the intrepid racing duo of Bernie Janelle and Cindy
Hearing in 2:04:29. Rounding out the top five for the women were Brittany Bello in
2:08:36 and Sandra Pabis in 2:08:45. Congrats ladies! Elsewhere in the area, Victor Huwe
and Nicolas Heller ran the NYCRUNS Verrazano Festival of Races Half-Marathon in
Brooklyn. Victor won his age group with a time of 1:41:06. Nicolas ran a 1:35:13 to
score fifth in his age group. In the Pin Down Bladder Cancer Spring Fling 10K on
Roosevelt Island, Sam LaFata finished in 1:21:54, a time that vaulted him to second in
his age group.Taking advantage of the beautiful weather, four Front Runners headed to
Asbury Park for the RunAPalooza! Jersey Shore Marathon and-Half Marathon. Jeremy Reiss
fired off a 1:24:21 half to take fifth overall and first in age. Jim Diego added state
number 20 to his 50-state half-marathon quest with a 2:16:33 finish. Marcus Woolen
finished in 1:50:06. Tackling his second marathon in a month, Jason Fluegge ran a
4:45:37, which was good for first in his age group. On the out-of-town front, David
Grudzien ran a 5K double-header over the weekend. David ran a 44:21 for the ATC
Singlelton 5K in Georgia on Saturday and then recorded a cheeky 39:16 in the Bare Burro
5K Trail Run on Sunday. Tom Malcolm won his Age Group and a bottle of wine in lieu of a
trophy at the Silverado Half Marathon in Napa Valley. Tom stopped the clock in a handy
1:49:06. Jeremy Reiss A post-race Victor Huwe Jason Fluegge and Marcus Woolen,
chillin’ after a run along the beach. Chris Stoia + Dennig Ng And then there was
Boston. Dennis Ng (20:03), Chris Stoia (20:31) and Wendy Lai (34:52) helped kick off the
weeknd in Saturday’s Boston Athletic Association 5K around Boston ComIn Monday’s main
event -- the 119th Boston Marathon -- Dan Ferguson led all Front Runners in a blistering
2:54:55 (6:41 pace), slicing a couple of minutes off his personal record. He was
followed in short order by Jerry McDonnell in 2:57:30. Racing his second marathon in a
month (and first Boston) was Markus Armbruster, who finished in 3:01:53. Rich Velazquez
recorded a 3:09:16, Darin Soler scored a 3:21:12 and Richard Ervais braved the elements
with a speedy 3:35:25. Front Runner women were represented by Yoshie "Yaby" Yabu, who
�finished in 3:18:20, Sandra Schmidt, with a 3:29:41 and Jillian Ternosky, who covered
the 26.2 in 3:37:44 . Congrats to those runners who have participated in one of the
world’s most coveted races! Congratulations to our Boston Marathoners! First row:

will focus on ultra marathons. Ultras are gaining in popularity and this is the place to
find out how you can start training for one. Our experts will include Cindy
Hearing, Bernie Janelle, and Michelle Johnson. They’ll discuss how you can start
training for ultras, how to find a beginner friendly ultra, and what equipment you need.
New Ambassador Program! The FRNY Diversity Committee is proud to announce the new
Ambassador Program. Ambassadors, like Bagelers, sign up to introduce themselves to new
runners and be as welcoming as possible. Unlike bagelers, you still get to run and eat
like everyone else! Members of the Diversity Committee may ask you to run or eat brunch
with newcomers so no one feels left out. To sign up, list your name during the times
that work for you on this spreadsheet. If you have any questions, contact
diversity@frny.org. Spring Cleaning Clothes Drive It doesn’t take much to put a smile on
someone’s face. Giving a homeless person a clean shirt is a surefire way to do it. We
all have a few items buried in our closets we have never worn and never will. Get rid of
them and bring them to Rutger’s church on a fun run Saturday. Knowing you helped a
person in need will put a smile on your face too. A successful start to the Beginner’s
Clinic! Ready to get your game on? The FRNY Social Committee invites you to GAY

coloring station to bring out the artist (or child) in you! We promise a fun
night. Only the game pieces will be board. Where: Lucilla’s Apt When: April
24 7 pm - 11 pm Attire: Game night causal. OR: decked out for cards, Jeff

play in jeopardy. Networking Social: Our Annual Professional Networking Social is back!
On Fri, May 8, Front Runners in a professional environment will mix-n-mingle at 6PM,
followed by five FRNY speakers at 7PM. Networking follows for the rest of the evening so
you can meet others in your profession, consider a career change, or look for work-so,
bring your business cards. Business attire suggested, but not required. A group dinner

additional racing opportunities on our racing spreadsheet. Be sure to put your name down

information before 12 pm on the Tuesday of the week’s Gram. Cerulean
skies smiled on scores of FRNY racers last weekend, from the sultry climes of South
Carolina to the rocky climbs of Van Cortlandt Park. Doughty Front Runners north and
south triumphed over treacherous hills, timber-strewn trails, farmland gales, recent
surgery. And crime. Down Dixie way, half-marathon maestro David Grudzien
and prot?g? Jim Diego teamed up at the Raleigh Rock ’n’ Roll Half-Marathon, which Jim
called "the hilliest course I’ve ever run." Undeterred, he rocked it through his 12th
half of 2015, adding North Carolina as his 19th state in a half-marathon string that
began only in March 2014. Next up for Jim, a frolic through the Garden State to make the
tally an even 20. For David, the Raleigh romp lifted his 2015 half-marathon sum to 10.
Number nine came the day before at the Palmetto Half in Columbia, South
Carolina. These are David’s 123rd and 124th lifetime halves -- dating back only to March
2012.Alison McKenna continued her clamber back from injury at the Rutgers Unite
Half-Marathon, racing around the New Jersey campus where she’ll get her master’s degree
next month. Half Marathoners Jim Diego and David Grudzien down south! Dashing down
agrarian byways circling Lancaster, Pennsylvania, Connor Essick and Dave Lin both found
something to crow about after the Garden Spot Village Marathon. Connor knifed through a
steady headwind to finish in just over three hours -- taking second place overall with
his marathon PR after passing a rival at mile 22. Dave breasted the same testy winds to
complete his third marathon in 15 days, taking third in his age group for the third time
in a row! L-R: Dave Lin finishes his third (and fastest) marathon in 15 days! Connor
sprints to a 3:00:36, finishing 2nd overall out of 270 runners. Up in the
Bronx, six brawny Front Runners scrambled through "downed trees, lots of twists and
turns and rocky hills," reported dean of derring-do Dave Pitches, in the Van Cortlandt
Track Club’s Cross-Country Urban Environmental Challenge 10K. On the rebound from
abdominal surgery, Dave gutted out a third-in-age and got a carrot-cake muffin for his
troubles. He’s back! L-R: Tim Guscott, Bernd Erpenbeck, Colin Meret, John Smith,
Dave Pitches (he’s back, baby!) A nimble Jonathan Smith should change his
name to Swift after placing first in age, first among Fronties and seventh overall with
a trailblazing 42:34 -- all in his first cross-country 10K. Marni Aarlev took second in
her age bracket after missing a turn, retracing her steps, and locking in behind a
familiar face -- well, fanny -- all the way to the finish. Colin Meret warmed up with a
jog from Washington Heights, then hopped and scotched over the chancy course in a few
ticks over 57 minutes for 11th in age. Not far behind, Bernd Erpenbeck and Tim Guscott
finished shoulder-to-shoulder and chip-to-chip with a nearly palindromic 1:01:00.
In the other B-borough, Chris Choi tried his hand (and legs) at a new event, clocking a
dazzling 53:27 and finishing first in his age group at the 31st Annual Brooklyn Duathlon
-- a two-mile run, then a 10-mile bike sprint, rounded off with another two-mile run.
Every Front Runner who finished the D.C. Cherry Blossom 10-Mile Run notched a
first-at-distance -- and here’s where the crime comes in. Because D.C. police taped off
a crime scene investigation halfway through the course, runners got detoured to a route
slightly shorter than 10 miles, according to FRNY participants. And there were many for
this quasi-10-mile tour of the Potomac and Tidal Basin. Team FRNY Orange took
eighth place with a 59:54 from Olivier Schmitt, a 1:02:46 from Gilbert Gaona and a
1:03:30 from Dennis Ng. Gilbert was on pace for a three-minute 10-mile PR, and official
results do not amend the distance to 9.5 miles, so . . . . Team FRNY Blue gathered
13th-place honors thanks to John Grunert (1:11:17), Dave Caraway (1:12:27), and Jesus
Martinez Jr (1:26:27). Jill Crouther paid her regards to Washington, Jefferson and
Lincoln with a lyrical 1:33:33. Rob Cimino saluted Spring with a 1:16:38. And Rich
Goldberg crushed the capital course (and countless fallen cherry blossoms) with a
1:13:07. Three other Front Runners chased glory beneath cherry blossom canopies
last week -- Jennifer Bougher and David White logging a 10K at New Jersey’s Essex County
Cherry Blossom Festival and Ed Kennelly treading lightly through 13.1 miles of cherry
arbors in Gyeongju, South Korea. Richard Ervais and Zander Ross doubled up for a Cole
Porter tribute, insisting they love Paris in the springtime through 26.2 miles of Seiney
scenery. The plucky marathon duo finished their fourth Paris gambol together, Richard in
3:49:40 and Zander in 4:06:30.Seventy-one Front Runners found Central Park vernal enough
for coltish antics, prancing through the NYRR four-mile Run for the Parks in consummate
racing weather. Myles Lock led the team with a third-in-age 23:40 and a 40-second PR
that gave him a 71.23 age-graded percentage (AG%). Bernie Janelle ran the four-miler
aiming for a 70 AG% and finished with 74 cents in change, taking 12th in her age group
with a 33:43. Other Front Runners showing off AG percentages in the 70s were Yaby Yabu
�(76.77%, first FRNY woman and fourth in her age group at 27:25), Onesimo DeMira (72.89%,
second Front Runner and 11th in age at 24:39), and Gen Watanabe (72.43%, fourth Front
Runner and 13th in age at 25:47).One Front Runner, the redoubtable Richard White,
vaulted into the national-class bracket with an 80.34 AG% (third for FRNY and second in
age at 24:59). Richard is no stranger to these airy AG% heights, recording two more
80+ Ed Kennelly celebrating spring with a half marathon in South Korea outings
within the past nine months. With this Run for the Parks, he celebrated his 20th NYRR
anniversary, which started at the Tropicana four-mile Run for the Parks, when Myles Lock
was four years old. In that 1995 race, Richard recorded a 49.4 AG% in 34:24, finishing
263rd in age. "If I can get faster," he counsels, "so can you." The Run for the
Parks crew!L-R: Mike Mariotti, James Childress, Patrick Hart, Dominic Aloia, Todd Burke,
Bernie Janelle, Diane Lowy, Richard White, Ashley Ortiz, Manja Sninivasaiah, Curtis
Knecht Stephen O’Rourke finished fifth among FRNY men with a 26:25 and took 14th in his
age cluster. After Yaby, other frisky FRNY fillies included Ashley Marie Ortiz (30:24),
Anne Duquette (30:44), Diane Lowy (33:55), and Lucilla Rastelli (35:27). Charlie Duncan
(29:02), Miki Mariotti (29:34), Patrick Hart (30:58) and Vet Ralph Rodriguez (38:15)
earned PRs. Supervet Stephen Rodgers finished 13th in his age cohort, Supervet Tom
Malcolm placed 15th in his, and Sam Lafata took fourth in his venerable age stratum.
Myles Lock finishing first for the team in a PR of 23:40 Bernie Janelle crushing
another 70% AG performance Richard White with another national-class 80% age graded
score. FRNY at the 2015 Cherry Blossom 10(ish) Mile RunTop: Rich Goldberg, Dave Caraway,

workout experience and a statement of interest by end of day today! First

drew 136 Front Runners -- and a whopping 8,012 competitors overall -- to Saturday’s New
York Road Runners Scotland Run in Central Park. The 10K was the second of this year’s 11
points races, and in a field loaded with some of the city’s best club racers, FRNY’s
women and men more than held their own. FRNY representing at the Scotland 10K on
Saturday The men’s Open team, which stood 12th in Division A going into the race, came
in 10th out of 61, finishing well ahead of both Hell Gate Road Runners and Greater New
York Running Club, the two teams immediately in front of FRNY in the standings. FRNY was
led by four runners who posted per-mile paces under six minutes: Dan Ferguson, (36:22;
5:52), Gabe Benroth (36:41; 5:55), Connor Essick (36:50; 5:56) and Jerry McDonnell
(37:06; 5:59). Ben Green was close on their heels, finishing in 37:33 (6:03 pace). Dan
cut 45 seconds off his personal record and Connor shaved two seconds off his. Jerry was
ninth in his age group. Dan Ferguson leading the Men’s Team in 36:22 Jerry
McDonnell leading the Masters Team in 37:06 Mike McMahon leading the Men’s Vets Team in
46:29 Jerry also led the FRNY Masters (40-plus) men to an eighth-place finish. Joining
him in scoring were Michael Sanderson (40:06) and Richard White (40:28). Richard was
also the top scorer for the Veterans (50-plus), followed by Mike McMahon (46:29) and
Thomas Crimmins (46:55). The Super-Vets (60-plus) took ninth in their division, with
scoring performances by Mark Mascolini (48:04), Stan More (48:58) and Alan Brown
(52:38). Yoshie "Yaby" Yabu led the women’s Open team to a 22nd-place
finish with a time of 43:58 (7:05 per mile), good for fourth in age. Also scoring for
the women were Sandra Schmidt (45:59; 7:24), Michelle Mazzara (48:01; 7:44), Anne
Duquette (52:54; 8:31) and Chen Liang (54:17; 8:45). The 40-plus women notched a strong
fifth-place finish thanks to Yaby, Sandra and Michelle. The 50-plus women came in 10th,
led by the dynamic duo of Bernie Janelle and Cindy Hearing (both 56:22), with Marni
Aarlev rounding out the scoring with a 59:09 finish. Chen Liang scoring 5th for the
Women’s Team Yaby leading the Women’s Team Throughout the field, FRNYers clocked
impressive individual performances. Sam LaFata came in fourth in his age group. Chris
Choi, Jason Fluegge, Chen Liang, Gen Watanabe and Maria Woehr earned PRs. Myles Lock
took 1:26 off his time from last year’s race. FRNY newcomer Nevin Cohen made his 10K
debut, finishing in 45:44. And these 16 Front Runner men and women cracked the
70-percent age-graded percentage barrier, marking them as "regional elite" athletes: Dan
Ferguson, Gabe Benroth, Connor Essick, Jerry McDonnell, Benjamin Green, Breandan Ward,
Giri Parameswaran, Michael Sanderson, Richard White, Onesimo DeMira, Gen Watanabe,
Manuel Romero, Yaby Yabu, Mike McMahon, Mark Mascolini and Stan More. Bernie
Janelle and Cindy Hearing leading our Women’s Vets Team Sam LaFata captured 4th in his
age group. In the background, Amr El-Shimi. Although the focus was on Central Park, a
couple of Front Runners headed elsewhere to race this past weekend. Andrew Good
completed the Philadelphia Hot Chocolate 15K in 1:07:28. It was his first race at the
distance and he came in 87th out of 6,702 overall. Phil Wahba ventured to
the steamy Georgia coast for the Skidaway Island Marathon near Savannah. Phil, working
on a 50-state marathon tour, fought the heat to finish in 4:14 and cross state
number 20 off his list. Andrew Good with a PR in the Hot Chocolate 15K 2012 Sue Foster

The Race Captains love to celebrate ALL of your accomplishments: PRs, debuts at a
distance and even your I-got-out-of-bed-and-ran-a-race races. To be included in the FR
Gram, please submit your race information before 12 pm on the Tuesday of the
week’s Gram. The pickings for New York City-based races were slim this
weekend, so Front Runners went out of town for some racing heroics. Dave Lin and
Todd Burke traveled to Lackawaxen, Pennsylvania, for the Two Rivers Marathon
weekend. Race organizers in this township (whose name translates to "Swift Waters" in
its native origin) thought it would be a good idea to have a marathon, a half-marathon,
a 10K and 5K on both Saturday and Sunday to make the trip worthwhile.
Supposedly, this event is very popular with the Marathon Maniacs! On Saturday, Dave
ran his Marathon in 3:45:38 while Todd took it easy on his special 16.1 mile "getting
lost between two rivers" half-marathon with a time of 2:43:27. On the second day, Todd
pulled off his birthday marathon in 4:04:55 and Dave bettered
his Saturday time by more than eight minutes for a 3:37:12 finish. He also
came in third in his age group in both of his marathons. Great results, and supposedly
both felt their legs a bit on the way back to New York. A combined three and a
half marathons in two days! Jim Diego continued his 2015 half-marathon streak in
Philadelphia this weekend with race number 11. He finished the Philadelphia Love Run in
2:09:38, his fastest Half in 2015 (yet). Four of our more adventurous members
ventured to the trails of the Lost Brook Nature Preserve in Tenafly, NJ. The team of
Jennifer Bougher, Jill Crouther, Chen Liang and David White dealt with trails covered in
rocks and roots, foot bridges over streams, thousand-year-old boulders and the
�occasional face plant. Jill finished the five-mile race in 1:03:45, while David,
Jennifer and Chen participated in the 10-mile event (results have not been posted yet).
Jim Diego: another weekend, another half. The historic U.S. Military Academy in West
Point, NY, was the race destination for Tim Guscott and Bernd Erpenbeck on Sunday.
Cheered on by David Pitches and Doug Larsen, they completed the very hilly West Point
Fallen Comrades Half-Marathon with hundreds of cadets and other civilians. Tim finished
in 1:51:56 and Bernd in 1:57:07. The race included a scenic course via the West Point
grounds, a parachute demonstration and a performance by a member of the West Point Glee
Club (and did I mention cadets?). Also this weekend, David Grudzien ran the Tomoka Half
Marathon in Ormond Beach, Florida, in 2:18:52. L-R: Tim Guscott and Bernd Erpenbeck
Lastly, back to New York City for New York Road Runners Spring Melt Down 10K, the last
event of their no-frills "classic" race series. Fourteen Front Runners toed the starting
line for a chilly loop around Central Park. Yoshie "Yaby" Yabu was the leader for the
FRNY women with a time of 43:42, which earned her another first place in her age-group.
The men’s team was led by Gabe Benroth, who crossed the line in 37:29, good for third
place in his age group. He was followed by FRNY newcomer Chris Choi in 39:38 (ninth in
age) and Owen Sweeney in 46:10. The ever-inspiring Sam LaFata added to his race trophy
collection with another first place finish in his age group and provided ample race
documentation with another "Last Import" photo album. Well done everybody! This weekend
brings the next points race on the calendar, the NYRR Scotland Run 10K. Unfortunately,
it is already sold out. Please check the NYRR website for open races as they tend to
fill up quickly this year. The FRNY racing sign-up sheet on our website lists a vast
variety of races in the city and out of town, for all of you who want to do a race
outside Central Park. As always, you can send your questions and comments
to racecaptains@frny.org. We love to hear from you!

Tom Buscemi Feb. 24, 1977 - March 22, 2015 Tom was an all-in kind of guy. He was a
fixture of the Wednesday-night runs from 2005 to 2007, and if you were lucky enough to
share some miles with him, he would regale you with his floodlight smile and natural,
loose-limbed athleticism. He raced less frequently, but when he did, usually at the
annual Pride Run, he left nothing on the course, always finishing near the top of the
club’s results. But running was just one of Tom’s many passions. As befitting a
son of two schoolteachers, he had an insatiable thirst for knowledge, and the desire to
spread it. He’d give you a half-hour on any topic: politics, music, vegetarianism, gay
culture, the best Indian food in the city, astrology, fashion, "The Simpsons." And he’d
do it with a biting wit, often punctuated by a ferocious, infectious giggle. My own
friendship with him was forged over a discourse on the Supremes’ song "The Happening,"
which predated Tom by 10 years. Many summer nights he could be found sitting by his
beloved Hudson River reading a book or a multi-thousand-word magazine article until the
last drop of light was gone. A friend of mine recently made me aware of a line written
by the poet Mary Oliver, which seemed a credo for the way Tom lived his life: "Pay
attention. Be astonished. Tell about it." Tom could be "astonished" by even the
seemingly smallest of pleasures: walking by the Apple Store; the "secret" pocket of a
Carhartt jacket; our "personal water fountain," which always seemed to emerge just in
time during our lunch-hour runs in Central Park in the summer of 2007; a good margarita;
why his confirmation name was Sebastian (because he was the patron saint of athletes); a
man in a suit; his beloved Grover, the "Sesame Street" character. And then that shiny,
happy enthusiasm would spill over and onto whoever was in his presence. He was
fiercely devoted to his family: his partner, Craig, and his mother, Kathleen,
especially. One year he decided that we had to run the Wall Street 5K, which was
sponsored by the American Heart Association, in honor of our fathers, who had each died
from heart disease. At the starting line he grabbed my hand and said, "This one is for
Jerry and Homer!" (Tom’s nickname for his father, Salvatore, was inspired by Homer
Simpson; he seemed to have a nickname for everyone.) Then he went out and scorched the
course. Just before I got the news of Tom’s passing on Sunday, I had been hearing a
lot of Stephen Sondheim on the radio, in honor of the composer’s 85th birthday. Tom’s
musical tastes veered more toward Saint-Saëns and the Cure, but after the shock subsided
a bit, I realized that a Sondheim song I’d heard that morning, "Being Alive," from the
show "Company," could have been written for Tom, especially the lines "Somebody hold me
too close. . . . Somebody crowd me with love." And now when I think of Tom, I’ll
be forever grateful for the way that he held people so close, and how he crowded us with
love.

sp; Rob Hoerburger More remembrances of
Tom Buscemi: "Tom always made my fun runs really ’fun’ when I had the chance to
run with him. Always smiling, joyous, not only willing to entertain my silly humor but
�also sharp-witted with great comebacks." Cenk Bülbül "I will always remember his
kind spirit, sweet personality and positive, energetic presence. He always seemed jovial
and glad to see his friends. We would run the six-mile loop together, and he made it
seem effortless and enjoyable." Sean Butler His smile could brighten
anybody’s dark day. I remember running with him one day, and I was having pain issues in
my left leg. He made me laugh all the way around Central Park. We laughed so hard, I
forgot all about my pain. In fact I think he cured it! Zander Ross During my
early days as a Front Runner, Wednesday night was the highlight of my week because it
involved meeting up with my crew of runners, one of them being the cute and
witty Tom Buscemi. Our conversation topics were probably the same as everyone
else’s running around us - work, music, boy troubles, mutual admiration for the
shirtless runner coming in the other direction - and the conversations continued
outside the club through emails, drinks after work and Sunday
margaritas. As our schedules got busier and we saw each other less
frequently, we always managed to check in when we heard the other’s favorite song,
or one of us saw a mutual crush we had - always followed by the classic
Tom response: "We are overdue for a drink, hon. Miss
you, man." I’m deeply saddened that I won’t get to have
one more drink with Tom, but that adorable smile and sharp sense of humor
will always be with me. Mark Ansell Boston Blue Line Run If you are running

& gently worn shirts & race souvenirs to donate them to a homeless shelter in

already contacted them and can’t wait to hear back. Get some space back in your closet
and fill it with a few trendy new spring garments. You deserve it! Every year

Pot of Gold, Drinkin’ Irish and some Last Minute Mistakes? It must be a relay! Front
Runners New York impressed in many races this week, locally and around the world. This
report salutes the many varied accomplishments of our teammates this week -- so be sure
�to read to the end! FRNY speedsters turned in many impressive individual performances on
the track last Tuesday at the Front Runners’ 16th Annual Indoor Track Meet at the New
Balance Armory, but this report starts with the event that requires and celebrates team
spirit: the relay. FRNY fielded 11 teams - a third of all teams at the meet.
Unsurprisingly, FRNY’s teams were fast, fabulous and named with flair.The first relay of
the evening was the 4x200. FRNY’s teams were: (1) I’m Irish Today (Jessie Lopez-Garay,
Mike Markowitz, Brian Schroeder, Gilbert Gaona); (2) Team Ramrod (David White, Jason
Fluegge, Thomas Wu, Dan Ferguson); (3) Fernando’s Fillies (Fernando Aguilar, Richard
White, Kent Lau, Bernd Erpenbeck); (4) FRNY DABS (Dave Lin, Alison McKenna, Brenton
Bellomy and Sandra Schmidt); (5) the Feisty Beavers (Sam Sanders, Stacey Cooper, Kim
Engel and Dani Schubert); and (6) the Fabulous Fifties (Bernie Janelle, Diane
Westerback, Faith Tempest and Cindy Hearing). The second relay was the Distance Medley,
in which four-person teams race 1200m, 400m, 800m and 1600m (in that order). Three teams
represented FRNY in this event: (1) Drink Til We’re Irish (Dan Yaby Yabu and
Sandra Schmidt in the 800 Ferguson, Gilbert Gaona, Jessie Lopez-Garay and Ben Corbett);
(2) the Last Minute Mistake (Dave Lin, Jerry McDonnell, Breandan Ward and Connor
Essick); and (2) the Fabulous Fifties (Bernie Janelle, Faith Tempest, Diane Westerback
and Cindy Hearing). The final relay - and the last event of the evening - was the 4x400.
FRNY’s teams were: (1) Pot of Gold (Jessie Lopez-Garay, Brenton Bellomy, Connor Essick
and Gilbert Gaona) and (2) the Lucky Charms (Maria Woehr, Maarten Vandersman, Giordano
Fusco and Bernd Erpenbeck). A good time was had by all of the relay teams, and many
medals were earned! L-R: Brenton Bellomy, Gilbert Gaona, Jessie Lopez-Garay, Brian
Schroeder, Jason Fluegge L-R: Gilbert Gaona, Connor Essick, Dan Ferguson run the 1500m
Front Runners also competed in each of the individual events of the evening, from the
60m dash to the 3000m race. FRNY men flooded the field in the 1500m race, with the
following men competing: Connor Essick (medal), Dan Ferguson (medal), Gilbert Gaona,
Dennis Ng, Brian Schroeder, Thomas Wu, Jerry McDonnell (medal), David White (PR), Mike
Markowitz (first track meet) and Richard White (medal). Richard and Connor also medaled
in the 3000m, as did Breandan Ward. Showing us why he was the 2014 FRNY
Track Athlete of the Year, Gilbert Gaona earned medals for the 60m dash, the 200m dash,
the 400m dash and the 800m dash. In addition to Gilbert, Thomas Wu and David White
represented FRNY in the 60m dash. FRNY was represented in the 200m dash by Gilbert,
Jessie Lopez-Garay, Brenton Bellomy, Thomas Wu and Kent Lau (medal). Gen Watanabe
medaled in the 400m dash and the 800m dash, followed closely by Maarten Vandersman in
both events. Brian Schroeder medaled in the 400m race in a field that also included
Jason Fluegge, Brenton Bellomy, Fernando Aguilar and Thomas Wu. And Connor Essick and
Giordano Fusco each medaled in the 800m race. Kent Lau leads of the 4x200m On the
women’s side, Sam Sanders earned a medal in the 60m and the 400m races and also competed
in the 200m race. Jennifer Bougher medaled in the 60m dash and also competed in the 200m
and 400m races. Maria Woehr and Alison McKenna each competed in the 400m dash and each
medaled in the 800m race, while Alison also raced the 60m and the 1500m. Stacey Cooper
supplemented her relay success with a 200m race, and Chen Liang earned a 47-second PR in
the 3000m race. Sandra Schmidt and Yaby Yabu pushed each other in the 400m and 3000m,
with each medaling in both races; Sandra also earned a medal in the 1500m race!
Dani Schubert in the DMR L-R: Faith Tempest, Cindy Hearing, Diane Westerback, Bernie
Janelle Thank you again to Javie Gomez, Marty McElhiney, and all involved in planning,
organizing and volunteering at the meet! Sam Sanders sprinting the 200m Jennifer
Bougher and Maria Woehr Diane Westerback Just days after displaying their prowess on the
track, Cindy Hearing and Bernie Janelle proved they can do it all when they each earned
PRs at the 50-mile distance in the NJ Ultra Festival this weekend. On a course
that featured snow, ice, slush and mud, Bernie and Cindy finished together in 12 hours
and 58 minutes, representing an 11-minute PR for Cindy and a 1 hour and 12 minute PR for
Bernie!Luckily, the snowy conditions cleared in time for Front Runners to participate in
a favorite out-of-town race on Saturday: the Sullivan Striders’ Wurtsboro Mountain
30K Road Run & Relay. Long runners covered the full, mountainous 18.64 miles solo,
while others opted to form three-person relay teams. FRNY comprised nearly a third of
all race participants, and took home many of the race’s awards. In the individual race,
Dan Ferguson took home second place overall (in 2:06:34), earning a PR and winning a
cool trophy, a cowbell and cookies. Dan ran so fast in his 30K debut that the
FRNY cheering van almost missed him flying by the 10K marker (oops!). Jerry McDonnell
and Michael Sanderson were sixth and seventh overall, with Gen Watanabe, Kurt Steinhouse
and Steven Gross right behind in ninth,11th and 13th overall. Phil Wahba, Todd Burke,
Connor Essick and Chris Strouse successfully completed the course, as did Alan Brown,
who took home second in his age group! And Chen Liang represented the FRNY women with
flair by crushing the course and winning third place in the 20-29 age group! The
Wurtsboro Mountain 30K Crew Jill Crouther and Jennifer Bougher FRNY entered three
teams in the Wurtsboro relay and took home all of the awards by finishing first, second
and third! Team FRNY MDD (Coach Mike Keohane, Dave Lin and Diane Westerback) took first
place. Jagged Little Hill (Jill Crouther, Jennifer Bougher, Faith Tempest) was the only
all-women’s relay team and took second place among all relay teams. And Mary’s Half
Bananas (Sam Sanders, Daniel Rodriguez, Brenton Bellomy) finished ahead of the Hudson
�Dusters’ relay team to take third place and sweep the podium for FRNY! Special
thanks to Diane Westerback for opening up her mountain home (and hot tub!) for FRNY to
enjoy post-race, and to Michael Orzechowski for driving and providing moral support.
Internationally, Front Runners earned their gelato by competing in the Rome Marathon,
where they battled the cobblestone streets and dodged raindrops. Markus Armbruster got a
PR and his first ever sub-3:00 marathon, finishing in 2:57:59. Dennis Ng got the job
done in 3:39:16, while Jean Simeon finished in 4:16:53. Jason Fluegge earned a PR in
4:22:39 and Michal Kaczmarski ran his first sub-4:00 marathon, finishing in 3:57:57.
Giovanny Leon enjoyed warmer climes by racing the Puerto Rico Marathon in 4:04:46. The
Rome Marathon Crew!!!! L-R: Markus Armbruster (Welcome to Sub-3!), Michal
Kaczmarski (Welcome to Sub-4!), Jason Fluegge, Jean Simeon, Dennis Ng (and Dave
Caraway’s floating head) Closer to home, David Grudzien overcame unending rain to
complete the Publix Georgia Half Marathon in Atlanta in 2:46:57. And Jim Diego
continued on his 50-state quest, completing the Dallas Rock ’n’ Roll Half Marathon in
2:26:32 and its companion 5K in 39:58. Closer still, several Front Runners
earned their beer by competing in the Queens iteration of the Michelob 13.1 Series
Half-Marathon. Ben Corbett flew through the course in 1:26:59, earning fourth place in
his age group. Richard White ran the course in a 6:57 pace (1:30:56), winning
his age group. Yaby Yabu also won her age group, finishing in 1:33:25! Jason
Fluegge and Mike Markowitz lead off the first leg of the 4 x 200m Richard White, Yaby
Yabu, Benjamin Corbett after the Queens 13.1 Half Marathon The Flying Irishman, Jerry
McDonnell, racing the 1500m Gen Watanabe charging the home straight

Tom Buscemi Feb. 24, 1977 - March 22, 2015 Tom was an all-in kind of guy. He was a
fixture of the Wednesday-night runs from 2005 to 2007, and if you were lucky enough to
share some miles with him, he would regale you with his floodlight smile and natural,
loose-limbed athleticism. He raced less frequently, but when he did, usually at the
annual Pride Run, he left nothing on the course, always finishing near the top of the
club’s results. But running was just one of Tom’s many passions. As befitting a
son of two schoolteachers, he had an insatiable thirst for knowledge, and the desire to
spread it. He’d give you a half-hour on any topic: politics, music, vegetarianism, gay
culture, the best Indian food in the city, astrology, fashion, "The Simpsons." And he’d
do it with a biting wit, often punctuated by a ferocious, infectious giggle. My own
friendship with him was forged over a discourse on the Supremes’ song "The Happening,"
which predated Tom by 10 years. Many summer nights he could be found sitting by his
beloved Hudson River reading a book or a multi-thousand-word magazine article until the
last drop of light was gone. A friend of mine recently made me aware of a line written
by the poet Mary Oliver, which seemed a credo for the way Tom lived his life: "Pay
attention. Be astonished. Tell about it." Tom could be "astonished" by even the
seemingly smallest of pleasures: walking by the Apple Store; the "secret" pocket of a
Carhartt jacket; our "personal water fountain," which always seemed to emerge just in
time during our lunch-hour runs in Central Park in the summer of 2007; a good margarita;
why his confirmation name was Sebastian (because he was the patron saint of athletes); a
man in a suit; his beloved Grover, the "Sesame Street" character. And then that shiny,
happy enthusiasm would spill over and onto whoever was in his presence. He was
fiercely devoted to his family: his partner, Craig, and his mother, Kathleen,
especially. One year he decided that we had to run the Wall Street 5K, which was
sponsored by the American Heart Association, in honor of our fathers, who had each died
from heart disease. At the starting line he grabbed my hand and said, "This one is for
Jerry and Homer!" (Tom’s nickname for his father, Salvatore, was inspired by Homer
Simpson; he seemed to have a nickname for everyone.) Then he went out and scorched the
course. Just before I got the news of Tom’s passing on Sunday, I had been hearing a
lot of Stephen Sondheim on the radio, in honor of the composer’s 85th birthday. Tom’s
musical tastes veered more toward Saint-Saëns and the Cure, but after the shock subsided
a bit, I realized that a Sondheim song I’d heard that morning, "Being Alive," from the
show "Company," could have been written for Tom, especially the lines "Somebody hold me
too close. . . . Somebody crowd me with love." And now when I think of Tom, I’ll
be forever grateful for the way that he held people so close, and how he crowded us with
love.

sp; Rob Hoerburger More remembrances of
Tom Buscemi: "Tom always made my fun runs really ’fun’ when I had the chance to
run with him. Always smiling, joyous, not only willing to entertain my silly humor but
also sharp-witted with great comebacks." Cenk Bülbül "I will always remember his
kind spirit, sweet personality and positive, energetic presence. He always seemed jovial
and glad to see his friends. We would run the six-mile loop together, and he made it
seem effortless and enjoyable." Sean Butler His smile could brighten
anybody’s dark day. I remember running with him one day, and I was having pain issues in
my left leg. He made me laugh all the way around Central Park. We laughed so hard, I
forgot all about my pain. In fact I think he cured it! Zander Ross During my
early days as a Front Runner, Wednesday night was the highlight of my week because it
involved meeting up with my crew of runners, one of them being the cute and
witty Tom Buscemi. Our conversation topics were probably the same as everyone
else’s running around us - work, music, boy troubles, mutual admiration for the
shirtless runner coming in the other direction - and the conversations continued
outside the club through emails, drinks after work and Sunday
margaritas. As our schedules got busier and we saw each other less
frequently, we always managed to check in when we heard the other’s favorite song,
or one of us saw a mutual crush we had - always followed by the classic
Tom response: "We are overdue for a drink, hon. Miss
you, man." I’m deeply saddened that I won’t get to have
one more drink with Tom, but that adorable smile and sharp sense of humor
will always be with me. Mark Ansell Boston Blue Line Run If you are running
�the Boston Blue Line Run this weekend, check your e-mail from long run directors Dan
Ferguson and Connor Essick for logistical details! Spring Cleaning! Bring your

promoting around the workouts. If you are interested, please email the
coaching committee with your coached workout experience and a statement of interest
by April 2. Beginner’s Clinic As spring is approaching, the FRNY Beginner’s
Clinic will be starting back up soon. We welcome both new and current members to join us

use a refresh: Elke Gasselseder is organizing a spring clothes drive! It’s a simple
rule: If you haven’t worn something in 12 months, get rid of it. Do you have race
souvenir shirts that you’ve never worn, but that are too nice to throw away? Bring them
to any Saturday fun run starting this Saturday through April 4th. We are collecting new
& gently worn shirts & race souvenirs to donate them to a homeless shelter in
NYC. One box will go to McFarland High School to establish a friendship. Elke has
already contacted them and can’t wait to hear back. Get some space back in your closet
and fill it with a few trendy new spring garments. You deserve it! Every year
there are special races FRNY makes an effort to turn out for. These include
FRNY-sponsored races, NYRR Points Races, relays, local club races, and longtime FRNY
favorites. Below are the target races for April, May, and June, so be sure to think
about signing up! And there are plenty of additional racing opportunities on our racing
spreadsheet. Be sure to put your name down for all your races so your teammates know
what you’re up to! Not running? The club is always looking for volunteers to
cheer and take photos! Contact the Race Captains if you’re interested! 4/12 VCTC

News! The Multisport Committee is happy to announce that we have contracted with a new
pool! And it’s a big, beautiful, brand new, 6-lane pool that FRNY will
have exclusively use of during swim practice! The pool is at
the Convent of the Sacred Heart, at 401 E 91st Street on the Upper East Side.
We expect that our first swim at the new pool will be Monday, March 30th at
7:45; we have submitted everything and are only waiting for a piece of paper to arrive
from Albany to confirm this. We will send details about new pool times,
regulations and sign-ups in Sunday’s Multisport email. We will have one last
hurrah at Roosevelt Island this week, and look forward to seeing you all in your
swimsuits on the Upper East Side soon! Beginner’s Clinic As spring is
approaching, the FRNY Beginner’s Clinic will be starting back up soon. We welcome both

Pot of Gold, Drinkin’ Irish and some Last Minute Mistakes? It must be a relay! Front
Runners New York impressed in many races this week, locally and around the world. This
report salutes the many varied accomplishments of our teammates this week -- so be sure
to read to the end! FRNY speedsters turned in many impressive individual performances on
the track last Tuesday at the Front Runners’ 16th Annual Indoor Track Meet at the New
Balance Armory, but this report starts with the event that requires and celebrates team
spirit: the relay. FRNY fielded 11 teams - a third of all teams at the meet.
Unsurprisingly, FRNY’s teams were fast, fabulous and named with flair.The first relay of
the evening was the 4x200. FRNY’s teams were: (1) I’m Irish Today (Jessie Lopez-Garay,
Mike Markowitz, Brian Schroeder, Gilbert Gaona); (2) Team Ramrod (David White, Jason
Fluegge, Thomas Wu, Dan Ferguson); (3) Fernando’s Fillies (Fernando Aguilar, Richard
White, Kent Lau, Bernd Erpenbeck); (4) FRNY DABS (Dave Lin, Alison McKenna, Brenton
Bellomy and Sandra Schmidt); (5) the Feisty Beavers (Sam Sanders, Stacey Cooper, Kim
Engel and Dani Schubert); and (6) the Fabulous Fifties (Bernie Janelle, Diane
Westerback, Faith Tempest and Cindy Hearing). The second relay was the Distance Medley,
in which four-person teams race 1200m, 400m, 800m and 1600m (in that order). Three teams
represented FRNY in this event: (1) Drink Til We’re Irish (Dan Yaby Yabu and
Sandra Schmidt in the 800 Ferguson, Gilbert Gaona, Jessie Lopez-Garay and Ben Corbett);
(2) the Last Minute Mistake (Dave Lin, Jerry McDonnell, Breandan Ward and Connor
Essick); and (2) the Fabulous Fifties (Bernie Janelle, Faith Tempest, Diane Westerback
and Cindy Hearing). The final relay - and the last event of the evening - was the 4x400.
FRNY’s teams were: (1) Pot of Gold (Jessie Lopez-Garay, Brenton Bellomy, Connor Essick
and Gilbert Gaona) and (2) the Lucky Charms (Maria Woehr, Maarten Vandersman, Giordano
�Fusco and Bernd Erpenbeck). A good time was had by all of the relay teams, and many
medals were earned! L-R: Brenton Bellomy, Gilbert Gaona, Jessie Lopez-Garay, Brian
Schroeder, Jason Fluegge L-R: Gilbert Gaona, Connor Essick, Dan Ferguson run the 1500m
Front Runners also competed in each of the individual events of the evening, from the
60m dash to the 3000m race. FRNY men flooded the field in the 1500m race, with the
following men competing: Connor Essick (medal), Dan Ferguson (medal), Gilbert Gaona,
Dennis Ng, Brian Schroeder, Thomas Wu, Jerry McDonnell (medal), David White (PR), Mike
Markowitz (first track meet) and Richard White (medal). Richard and Connor also medaled
in the 3000m, as did Breandan Ward. Showing us why he was the 2014 FRNY
Track Athlete of the Year, Gilbert Gaona earned medals for the 60m dash, the 200m dash,
the 400m dash and the 800m dash. In addition to Gilbert, Thomas Wu and David White
represented FRNY in the 60m dash. FRNY was represented in the 200m dash by Gilbert,
Jessie Lopez-Garay, Brenton Bellomy, Thomas Wu and Kent Lau (medal). Gen Watanabe
medaled in the 400m dash and the 800m dash, followed closely by Maarten Vandersman in
both events. Brian Schroeder medaled in the 400m race in a field that also included
Jason Fluegge, Brenton Bellomy, Fernando Aguilar and Thomas Wu. And Connor Essick and
Giordano Fusco each medaled in the 800m race. Kent Lau leads of the 4x200m On the
women’s side, Sam Sanders earned a medal in the 60m and the 400m races and also competed
in the 200m race. Jennifer Bougher medaled in the 60m dash and also competed in the 200m
and 400m races. Maria Woehr and Alison McKenna each competed in the 400m dash and each
medaled in the 800m race, while Alison also raced the 60m and the 1500m. Stacey Cooper
supplemented her relay success with a 200m race, and Chen Liang earned a 47-second PR in
the 3000m race. Sandra Schmidt and Yaby Yabu pushed each other in the 400m and 3000m,
with each medaling in both races; Sandra also earned a medal in the 1500m race!
Dani Schubert in the DMR L-R: Faith Tempest, Cindy Hearing, Diane Westerback, Bernie
Janelle Thank you again to Javie Gomez, Marty McElhiney, and all involved in planning,
organizing and volunteering at the meet! Sam Sanders sprinting the 200m Jennifer
Bougher and Maria Woehr Diane Westerback Just days after displaying their prowess on the
track, Cindy Hearing and Bernie Janelle proved they can do it all when they each earned
PRs at the 50-mile distance in the NJ Ultra Festival this weekend. On a course
that featured snow, ice, slush and mud, Bernie and Cindy finished together in 12 hours
and 58 minutes, representing an 11-minute PR for Cindy and a 1 hour and 12 minute PR for
Bernie!Luckily, the snowy conditions cleared in time for Front Runners to participate in
a favorite out-of-town race on Saturday: the Sullivan Striders’ Wurtsboro Mountain
30K Road Run & Relay. Long runners covered the full, mountainous 18.64 miles solo,
while others opted to form three-person relay teams. FRNY comprised nearly a third of
all race participants, and took home many of the race’s awards. In the individual race,
Dan Ferguson took home second place overall (in 2:06:34), earning a PR and winning a
cool trophy, a cowbell and cookies. Dan ran so fast in his 30K debut that the
FRNY cheering van almost missed him flying by the 10K marker (oops!). Jerry McDonnell
and Michael Sanderson were sixth and seventh overall, with Gen Watanabe, Kurt Steinhouse
and Steven Gross right behind in ninth,11th and 13th overall. Phil Wahba, Todd Burke,
Connor Essick and Chris Strouse successfully completed the course, as did Alan Brown,
who took home second in his age group! And Chen Liang represented the FRNY women with
flair by crushing the course and winning third place in the 20-29 age group! The
Wurtsboro Mountain 30K Crew Jill Crouther and Jennifer Bougher FRNY entered three
teams in the Wurtsboro relay and took home all of the awards by finishing first, second
and third! Team FRNY MDD (Coach Mike Keohane, Dave Lin and Diane Westerback) took first
place. Jagged Little Hill (Jill Crouther, Jennifer Bougher, Faith Tempest) was the only
all-women’s relay team and took second place among all relay teams. And Mary’s Half
Bananas (Sam Sanders, Daniel Rodriguez, Brenton Bellomy) finished ahead of the Hudson
Dusters’ relay team to take third place and sweep the podium for FRNY! Special
thanks to Diane Westerback for opening up her mountain home (and hot tub!) for FRNY to
enjoy post-race, and to Michael Orzechowski for driving and providing moral support.
Internationally, Front Runners earned their gelato by competing in the Rome Marathon,
where they battled the cobblestone streets and dodged raindrops. Markus Armbruster got a
PR and his first ever sub-3:00 marathon, finishing in 2:57:59. Dennis Ng got the job
done in 3:39:16, while Jean Simeon finished in 4:16:53. Jason Fluegge earned a PR in
4:22:39 and Michal Kaczmarski ran his first sub-4:00 marathon, finishing in 3:57:57.
Giovanny Leon enjoyed warmer climes by racing the Puerto Rico Marathon in 4:04:46. The
Rome Marathon Crew!!!! L-R: Markus Armbruster (Welcome to Sub-3!), Michal
Kaczmarski (Welcome to Sub-4!), Jason Fluegge, Jean Simeon, Dennis Ng (and Dave
Caraway’s floating head) Closer to home, David Grudzien overcame unending rain to
complete the Publix Georgia Half Marathon in Atlanta in 2:46:57. And Jim Diego
continued on his 50-state quest, completing the Dallas Rock ’n’ Roll Half Marathon in
2:26:32 and its companion 5K in 39:58. Closer still, several Front Runners
earned their beer by competing in the Queens iteration of the Michelob 13.1 Series
Half-Marathon. Ben Corbett flew through the course in 1:26:59, earning fourth place in
his age group. Richard White ran the course in a 6:57 pace (1:30:56), winning
his age group. Yaby Yabu also won her age group, finishing in 1:33:25! Jason
Fluegge and Mike Markowitz lead off the first leg of the 4 x 200m Richard White, Yaby

race souvenir shirts that you’ve never worn, but that are too nice to throw away? Bring
them to any Saturday fun run starting this Saturday through April 4th. We are collecting
new & gently worn shirts & race souvenirs to donate them to a homeless shelter
in NYC. One box will go to McFarland High School to establish a friendship. Elke has
already contacted them and can’t wait to hear back. Get some space back in your closet
and fill it with a few trendy new spring garments. You deserve it! FRNY
General Meeting The first FRNY General Meeting of 2015 will be held on Saturday, March
28th, after the regular announcements. The draft agenda is here. Email Brian Schroeder
if you have any questions or suggestions. The Wurtsboro Mountain 30k is this
Saturday, and the Boston Blue Line Run is the following Sunday, the 29th. There are
only a couple more spots in FRNY vehicles for these trips, so if you’re interested
contact longruns@frny.org ASAP. See below First Out-Of-Town Race of
2015! The Wurtsboro Mountain 30K on Saturday, March 21st is a road race around the
town of Wurtsboro. Most famously, the race is known for its first 4 miles -- straight
uphill! Enjoy the beautiful scenery as a solo runner or 3-person relay. Sign up the day
of the race or register online Elevation profile for the Wurtsboro 30K,
including the initial 1000-foot ascent in the opening 4 miles. FRNY @ Wurtsboro 2014.

heading up to Boston for the Boston Blue Line Run! We’ll drive up to Boston after the

running week started Tuesday with the New York Road Runners Speed Series No. 4 at the
Washington Heights Armory, which includes the ever-popular 10x5x2000 relay. Before the
night’s marquee event, a few Front Runners tackled the mile. Flaunting their speed were
Dan Ferguson (5:17:18), Gilbert Gaona (5:41:52) and Dave Caraway (6:22:87). FRNY

starting line armed with team pride and many a fashionable outfit. Leading the way were
Gaytinos/Las Reinas (Manny Romero, Jesus Martinez, Fernando Aguilar, Ramon Frisneda,
Jessie Lopez-Garay, Daniel Bak, Javie Gomez, Cristian Contreras , Dave Caraway and
Gilbert) in 27:48.25. Following were Gaysian Relay Ramming (Dave Lin, Kent Lau, Connor
Essick, Onesimo Demira, Binh Huynh, Chun Wang, Yaby Yabu, Chee Heong Tee, Gen Watanabe
and Bijay Pradhan) in 29:38.33. The next Front Runner team to cross the finish line had
the most pondered question of the evening, "Does that outfit come on dryfit?" Decked out
in sweaters in their finest country club couture were the Stepfords & Eurogays
(David White, Dan, Andrew Cunningham, Jason Fluegge, Brenton Bellomy, Bernd Erpenbeck,
�Maarten Vandersman, Coach Mike and Jerry McDonnell) in 30:30.62. A special shout out to
Bernd as he #broketheinternet with his fashion choice, making him the latest Instagram
sensation. The Gaytinos! (photo courtesy Da Ping Luo) The amazing Bernd Erpenbeck
Finally, FRNY Beavers (Jennifer Bougher, Faith Tempest, Stacey Cooper, Wendy Lai,
Lucilla Rastelli, Chen Liang and Kim Engel) won the all-women’s division in 41:07.90.

Sunday saw 113 Front Runners go from go! to whoa! in the NYRR New York City
Half-Marathon. Leading the way for the FRNY men were Dan Ferguson (1:20:37, PR), Connor
Essick (1:22:37), Gabe Benroth (1:23:06), Breandan Ward (1:25:17) and Myles Lock
(1:25:33, PR). 1st FRNY woman, Ruth Loos (photo courtesy Steven Waldon)
Lead Front Runner, Dan Ferguson (1:20:37)(photo courtesy Steven Waldon) The ladies were
led by Ruth Loos (1:35:25, 17th in age), Sandra Schmidt (1:37:16), Michelle Mazzarra
(1:47:16), Ashley Marie Ortiz (1:53:54) and Jen Bougher (1:54:52). PRs were turned in by
Gen Watanabe, TJ Berardo, a green-coifed Dennis Ng and Victor Huwe. Making their debuts
at the half-marathon distance was Roland Perez-Lorenzo. Jim Diego also finished the half
after a brief cool down from running the Rock and Roll Half Marathon in Washington, D.C.
the day before. After the race, many turned up at Chen Liang’s for a wonderful brunch.
After some airport snafus, Gilbert Gaona and Jesus Martinez made it out west to
San Diego for the St. Patrick’s Day 10K. Gilbert ran a 44:27, good for sixth in age, and
Jesus turned in a 54:49. Sunday saw five Fronties tackle the Los Angeles Marathon. Jacob
Rothschild set a 15-minute PR with a 4:15 and Lucas Lombardo coming in with a sizzling
3:03:44 (BQ). Other finishers included Avanti Peters (3:09:30), Tony Majewski (3:41:53)
and John Colligan (4:21:21). The only thing hotter than the times from our team members
was the 90-degree weather. L-R: TJ Berardo and Dennis Ng both joined the sub-1:30 club
at Sunday’s half. (photos courtesy Steven Waldon) Finally, on the local front, Stan
More ran the Shamrock Run Five Mile in Watertown, N.Y. in 37:08, good for first in age.
The weather is finally starting to change for the better so keep those race reports
coming to share your successes. Who knows, you could be the next Instagram sensation!

We’ll drive up to Boston after the fun run on Saturday, March 28. We’ll stay overnight
in a hotel and then on Sunday morning run the last 20 miles (or fewer, if you prefer) of
the Boston Marathon course. We’ll drive back to New York in the afternoon and should be
home by early evening. The club will provide transportation to/from Boston, but runners
will have to cover other expenses (including hotel, which can be as little as
$20/person). We’re excited to be putting this event on with our gay running counterparts
in Boston, GURL, who will be hosting a post-run brunch for us. Put your name on the
racing sign-in spreadsheet if you’d like to go so that we can arrange transportation and
accommodation, and contact us with any questions longruns@frny.org. FRNY + GURL
Boston, 2014 Boston BLR. Photo by Da Ping Luo Every year there are special races FRNY
makes an effort to turn out for. These include FRNY-sponsored races, NYRR Points Races,
relays, local club races, and longtime FRNY favorites. Below are the target races for
February, March, and April, so be sure to think about signing up! And there are plenty
of additional racing opportunities on our racing spreadsheet. Be sure to put your name
down for all your races so your teammates know what you’re up to! Not running?

foodways of this remote land at a local eatery TBD. Register today. 5/10
Hoboken Harriers HOHA Classic 5 Miler After winning the team competition at
the HOHA Classic 5 Miler last year, FRNY enjoyed mimosas and manmosas at
Wicked Wolf Tavern in libertine Hoboken, New Jersey, where anything goes, including

club racing credit. Sign up today and make sure to put your team as Front Runners

race also counts as one of the FRNY races for the Participation Award. The early bird
registration fee is the same as last year’s fee: $30. After March 31st it will
increase to $35. Last year we sold out the week of the race, so with early bird pricing

Gram. Parson Weems fabricated perhaps the most enduring - and preposterous
- bit of Americana when he embellished the fifth edition of his Life and Memorable
Actions of George Washington with the cherry tree chopping episode. Front Runners need
no such embellishments to reflect their valor at last Sunday’s 19th Annual Cherry Tree
10 Miler and Three-Person Relay, hosted by the Prospect Park Track Club. FRNY at the
Cherry Tree! Relay and 10-Miler Chen Liang showed off her up- and downhill derring-do in
the solo 10-mile contest, clocking a crisp 1:35:52 and finishing as the first FRNY
woman. Chen reports racing at PR pace until that big hill hit her the third time around.
Warming up for her annual assault on hilly urban and exurban arcadia, Jill Crouther sped
through the three Prospect Park loops in 1:43:38. Jessica Huckemeyer, the only other
FRNY woman essaying the solo 10-mile trial, completed three turns of the Brooklyn oasis
in 1:55:21.The remarkable Richard White scorched through 10 solitary miles in 1:06:55.
Richard’s 6:42 pace put him first in his age group, 25th overall and ahead of 21 of the
22 relay teams. Race reporters despair of finding new superlatives to portray Richard’s
prepossessing exploits.Bernd Erpenbeck, in his longest race since a hamstring
setback, rounded the triple circuit in 1:28:11, followed by the ever-plucky Dave Pitches
in 1:34:29 (fifth in age), Phil Greenwald in 1:50:10 and Craig Goodwin-Ortiz de Leon in
�2:12:48. Heroics aplenty studded Front Runner relay outings. FRNY Triple Trouble
started with the dangerous duo of Alan Brown and Gen Watanabe, added Coach Mike Keohane
as a blue-chip fill-in for an indisposed teammate, and finished first in the masters
division with a 1:09:27, more than 11 minutes ahead of the nearest competition and fast
enough to have placed third in the men’s open relay ranks. The Cherry Tree was Alan’s
debut relay and his first racing collaboration with Gen. The other FRNY masters troika,
Are We There Yet, came in sixth among masters on the six sturdy legs of Sam Lafata,
Steve McLure and Paul Racine.In the men’s open relay division, Ben Corbett, Gilbert
Gaona and Jessie Lopez-Garay showed off their skywalking skills as Cherry Tree Wars:
Return of the Front Runners, finishing number two in a field of 22 with a 1:07:02. Not
far behind came the stylish Astorians - Fernando Aguilar, Kevin McCahill, and Giordano
Fusco - who took third with a 1:10:17. Colin Meret, Carlos Segura and Richard Yuhua got
together as the Go Getters to take eighth place in 1:13:03, followed closely by Front
Runners Uncut at a bris(k) 1:13:26, good for ninth place. Richard White finishing the
10-Miler, 1st in his age group. Photo by Sam LaFata Back: Dave Pitches, Bernd
Erpenbeck, Chen Liang. Front: Gen Watanabe, Alan Brown, Mike Keohane (1st place Masters
!) Photo courtesy Alan Brown Front Runners populated the triads that finished 11th,
12th, and 13th, namely Crouching Tigers, Hidden Dragons (Jason Hu, Spencer Lew and Mike
McMahon mixing mettle for a 1:15:11), OSP3 (Dave Swinarski, William Bulman and Kurt
Spielmann cubing their clout for a 1:15:13), and a rakishly masked FRNY Justice League
(Matt Frank, Miki Mariotti and Chris Strouse righting wrong at a 1:15:16 clip). Then we
had the firm of Markowitz-Markowitz-Markowitz: FRNY stalwart Mike Markowitz joined by
his first-time-racing cousin Mitchell and, nominally, cousin Brian. But because Brian
lives in DC and couldn’t come north for the rescheduled Cherry Tree, Mike ran the first
leg, passed the baton to Mitchell, donned his Brian disguise, and ground out the third
loop. Winning this year’s couture competition, Jason Fluegge, Curtis Knecht and Jesus
Martinez combined deft needlework and color-coordinating skills as the Rainbow Brites, a
name that barely hints at their consummate costumery. All told, Front Runners
contributed nine of the 22 men’s open teams and two of the 10 masters medleys. The March
8 Cherry Tree replaced the originally scheduled February contest, obliterated by
winter’s ravages. But that didn’t stop hibernally uninhibited Front Runners from
enjoying the hospitality of Brian Schroeder, who was already set up for a postrace
brunch on the original date. Two Front Runners turned to Smalltown, USA to feed their
half-marathon hunger. Up in the Ocean State, Jim Diego polished off the 18th of 50
half-marathons he plans to run in 50 states, completing the Ocean’s Run
Half-Marathon in and around the village of Matunuck, Rhode Island
(pop18,926). David Grudzien trooped to Live Oak, FL (pop 6918) for the
Florida Sheriff’s Youth Ranch Half Marathon, notching his sixth half of the
still-young year and taking second-in-age for frosting. (OK, we know some people will be
curious about the Florida Sheriff’s Youth Ranch. Our investigative reporter says it’s a
legit outfit that houses and educates homeless kids.) 2nd overall, "Return Of the
Front Runners" : Jessie Lopez-Garay, Ben Corbett, GIlbert Gaona. Photo courtesy
Gilbert Gaona What’s next? Show off your support for FRNY - and your spring racing
outfit - at the next NYRR points race, the Scotland Run 10K on Saturday, April 4. If you
want to race, sign up now, because this 10K is near capacity. Two other NYRR points
races have opened for registration, the Portugal Day four-miler on Sunday, June 7
and-yes!-the Pride Run five-miler on Saturday, June 27. Don’t delay. These races always
sell out. The Rainbow Brites, y’all!Photo by Gilbert Gaona

We’ll drive back to New York in the afternoon and should be home by early evening. The
club will provide transportation to/from Boston, but runners will have to cover other
expenses (including hotel, which can be as little as $20/person). We’re excited to be
putting this event on with our gay running counterparts in Boston, GURL, who will be
hosting a post-run brunch for us. Put your name on the racing sign-in spreadsheet if
you’d like to go so that we can arrange transportation and accommodation, and contact us

brunch! 3/21 Wurtsboro Mountain 30k and Relay FRNY’s first out of town race of the year
will be the Wurtsboro Mountain 30k. That’s 18.6 miles for the non-metrically
minded, which is why it will also be that week’s long run. The eagle-eyed among you will
have spotted the word "mountain" in the race name, which is why there’s a relay option
if 18+ miles of uphill running isn’t your cup of tea. The club will be arranging
transportation, so please put your name on the racing spreadsheet so we know how many
vehicles to arrange. Register here 3/21 Michelob ULTRA 13.1 Queens Don’t feel

registration fee is the same as last year’s fee: $30. After March 31st it will

Last Sunday, the New York Road Runners club points race series started with the
Washington Heights Salsa, Blues and Shamrocks 5K up and down the hills of upper
Manhattan. One hundred one Front Runners toed the starting line on a chilly morning to
test their winter training in a very competitive field of local runners. While there was
still ice on the street (and on the Hudson), we got the race in just before the next
snowstorm hit the city. The women’s team was ready to bring it on and recorded some
great performances. Yoshie "Yaby" Yabu delivered on her promise and came in first in her
age group in her first-ever points race for FRNY. Yaby led the women’s Open team to a
21st-place finish in 21:08 (6:48 pace) before she went on a 30K long-run through the
Palisades. Giving up brunch and going for a long run, that’s commitment!Yaby was joined
in scoring for the Open team by Michelle Mazzara (23:26/7:33 pace and eighth in age
group), Jennifer Bougher (25:10/8:06), Chen Liang (26:46/8:37) and Sam Sanders (26:48/
8:38). Both Chen and Sam got PRs on a challenging course. The women’s Masters team raced
to ninth place. Lucilla Rastelli (27:28/ 8:51) joined double-scorers Yaby Yabu and
Michelle Mazzara on that squad.Dan Ferguson was clearly alive on the hills and crossed
the finish line as first Front Runner with a blistering PR of 17:26 (5:37 pace). He led
the men’s Open team to a 12th-place finish and scored an age-graded percentage of 75.25,
the first time that Dan broke the 75-percent barrier in a NYRR race. Great racing! Also
scoring for the men’s Open team were Connor Essick in 18:08 (5:51 pace), Giri
Parameswaran in 18:17 (5:54 pace), and Jerry McDonnell in 18:19 (5:54 pace). Jerry
McDonnell also scored for the men’s Masters team (over 40) and was joined by Gen
Watanabe (19:25/6:15 pace; PR!) and Richard White (19:53/6:24) for 11th place in the
�team competition. The men’s Vets team (over 50) did even better, with a 10th place
finish: Double-scorer Richard White, Steven Gross (21:28/6:55) and Richard Ervais
(21:37/6:58; ninth in age) contributed to that fine performance. The best placing was
reserved again for our Super Vets (over 60), who came in seventh, led by Mark Mascolini
(23:20/7:31), Stan More (23:34/7:36) and Dave Pitches (24:31/7:54). It was Dave’s first
NYRR race since his injury and he placed ninth in his age group. Welcome back! The
honors for highest age-graded performance go to Yaby Yabu on the women’s side, with
76.75 percent, which was her highest percentage ever in a NYRR race. Richard White
followed close behind for the men with 76.65. Overall, we had 12 runners who scored over
70-percent age-graded, which is considered regional class! Other notable
performers: Myles Lock placed 11th in his age group and reported a course PR (18:53;
6:05); and Sam Lafata, who continues to amaze with another second-place finish in his
age group (32:41;10:32). Rolando Perez-Lopez (23:02) and Jacob Rothschild (22:03) ran
their first 5K race. Gen Watanabe won the unofficial award for "Best Pre-Race Outfit"
and Marcus Woollen got the nod for "Best Irish-Themed Hat." And of course, we had the
best cheering section, highly visible and audible. Thanks to everybody who came out to
cheer on their teammates in the cold and thanks to all runners representing the club. A
special thank-you goes to Patrick Guilfoyle and Johnny Fraser, who opened their home for
a spectacular after-race brunch with gorgeous views of the icy Hudson River. Wait,
wait -- there is more to report from other parts of the country.Giovanny Leon enjoyed a
warm running weekend in Florida. On Sunday he ran the Excalibur 10 Miler in Viera in
1:25:36 (sixth in his age group) and the day before, he was a guide and pacer for a
blind runner in the Best Damn Race Half Marathon in Orlando. Half fanatic Jim Diego
continued his 50-states quest with half marathon number 20 and state number 17 in Little
Rock, Arkansas. Jim completed the race in 2:28:53 dressed as Roofio, the pirate.
The wine region of California lured Mike Orzechowski for his 12th marathon. He finished
the Napa Valley Marathon in 4:50:31 (and supposedly there was wine served afterwards).
David Grudzien also had another busy racing weekend: he finished the Atlanta Hawks Fast
Break 5K in 29:33 on Saturday, followed by running a humid and hot Michelob Ultra Miami
Beach Half Marathon on Sunday.Closer to home, Alison McKenna faced blizzard-like
conditions in the E. Murray Todd Half Marathon in Monmouth County, New Jersey, and she
was happy with a time of 2:49:54 in her first road race since June last year. After
rigorous training up and down subway stairs, Matt Frank conquered 66flights of stairs at
30 Rockefeller Center. Breathless but happy, it took him 12:04 min to reach the "Top of
the Rock" observation deck in the "Climb to the Top" benefitting research for Multiple
Sclerosis. And if you have caught the racing bug, registration for a number of
NYRR spring races is open, among them the next four points races -- Scotland Run,
Portugal Run (points race for men only), Women’s Mini 10K and the Pride Run. Don’t miss
out on all the fun (and brunches) and sign up soon. The Scotland Run on April 4 is now
listed as close to capacity. Any other racing questions? Don’t hesitate to contact your
trusted bunch of race captains at racecaptains@frny.org.

FRNY’s first out of town race of the year will be the Wurtsboro Mountain 30k.

week’s long run. The eagle-eyed among you will have spotted the word "mountain" in the
race name, which is why there’s a relay option if 18+ miles of uphill running isn’t your
cup of tea. The club will be arranging transportation, so please put your name on the
racing spreadsheet so we know how many vehicles to arrange. Register here 3/21

bird registration fee is the same as last year’s fee: $30. After March 31st it

Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the fleetest of them all? Four Front Runner men
set out to answer that enchanting question at Sunday’s Disney Princess Half-Marathon in
Orlando, Florida. Adorned in princess finery, including sparkling tiaras, they spread
some FRNY magic across a 13.1-mile swath of the Magic Kingdom.
Gilbert Gaona posted a 1:34:32 finish time, placing 35th overall (out of some 20,000),
11th among the men and second in his age group. Gilbert, a former United States Marine,
also took third place in the military division -- Snow White garb and all. He was
followed across the line by Jes?s "Princess Belle" Martinez, Daniel "Prince Charming"
Rodriguez and Brenton "Rapunzel" Bellomy. Daniel also earned the Glass Slipper Challenge
medal by completing the Enchanted 10K the day before he ran the half.
Closer to home, the New York Road Runners Al Gordon Classic drew 13 Front Runners to
Prospect Park, part of a field of 1,050 that braved Saturday’s deep freeze. No tiaras in
this race, but Dan Ferguson took the crown for FRNY with a 23:27 finish that netted him
15th place overall and third in his age group. Dan smoked the four-mile course at a 5:52
pace and notched an age-graded percentage of 73.03. He was followed by Brian Cheap
(28:12), Owen Sweeney (29:28), Patrick Hart (32:38) and Philip Greenwald (37:30).
Diane Westerback (43:44) and Maria Solis (46:57) represented the FRNY women. Diane
finished sixth in her age group. Sam LaFata (42:52) won his. Steve McLure took eighth
place in his age bracket.
Indoors at Washington Heights Armory on Thursday, four runners competed on behalf of the
club in the season’s third NYRR Night at the Races. Dennis Ng ran the 800 meters in
2:36.73 and the 5,000 meters in 19:31.34. Fernando Aguilar ran the 800 in a swift
2:21.07, while Brenton Bellomy turned in a 2:45.52. Gilbert Gaona finished the 5,000 in
19:51.59. Brenton also ran the 5,000. Bernd Erpenbeck and Coach Mike Keohane were on
hand to cheer and, well, coach.
On Sunday, ice and slush forced the Central Park Marathon and Half-Marathon to be
downgraded at the last minute to an unscored fun run, disappointing more than a dozen
Front Runners who had logged some serious winter training miles. But elsewhere,
long-distance races went off as scheduled. David Grudzien steered himself to the finish
of the Mercedes-Benz Half-Marathon in Birmingham, Alabama, in 2:28:03. Wendy Lai
traveled the longest and ran the farthest, completing one of the world’s most
prestigious races, the Tokyo Marathon. Wendy described it as her most enjoyable race
thanks to great crowd support and some amazing sights.
Next on the calendar is Sunday’s Washington Heights Salsa, Blues and Shamrocks 5K, the
first NYRR club points race of 2015. It’s sold out, but there are still spots available
in the following points race, the April 4 Scotland Run 10K. Sign up before it fills!

PM Track Workout is OFF No surprise, right? Instead on 2/19 NYRR Thursday Night at the
Races will replace the workout, and feature the following distances open to all: 800m,
5000m (and a 600m for those who qualify with a 1:45 [w] or 1:25 [m]) NYC Half Water
Station
Are you not running the NYC Half but love FRNY? Great! I need you to stop what you’re
doing and sign up to volunteer at FRNY’s NYC Half Water Station. We need 27 more
volunteers or we won’t make our quota. Sign up NOW and you will be entered into an NYRR
drawing for 50 entries into the Brooklyn Half Marathon! Please sign up via MyNYRR’s
Volunteer Opportunities area for the "FRNY Fluid Station 8" option. HELP US SUCCEED!
YOUR CLUB NEEDS YOU! Contact Fernando Aguilar Women’s Mini-Workshop! Join
us Saturday, February 21, right after the Fun Run, for a special Women’s
Mini-Workshop about triathlons. If you ever thought about doing a triathlon and
wanted to know how to get started, this is the place to be. This workshop will be
led by our own Front Runner tri experts; Katrina Amaro, Rachel Cutler, Alison McKenna,
and Kent Lau. They’ll let us know how they got involved in triathlons, how we can start
training for one, what equipment we need, how to find a beginner friendly tri, and what
type of training support exists within FRNY.
� Cherry Tree Relay is BACK ON! Well I never though *that* would happen. If you
were signed up for the Cherry Tree relay, you have the option of running it on March 8th
or deferring your entry to the 2016 race. Check your inbox for full details or contact
PPTC at contact@pptc.org Mark your calendars! The following list is for
NON-RACE events! For a list of upcoming races, see below! NYRR Club Night! Come
celebrate FRNY’s achievements in the larger NYC running community by attending NYRR’s
annual Club Night at the Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square. The event will be
Thursday, March 5th at 6pm. FRNY has two very big reasons to celebrate this year: our
very own Ruth Loos is nominated for Runner Of The Year, and our Men’s team won the
B-Division! FRNY has purchased 30 tickets and is subsidizing the cost of them for those
who would like to attend. To purchase subsidized tickets, go here. Tickets include
appetizers and two drinks. The evening begins with a cocktail reception at 6:00 PM
followed by the awards ceremony and some dancing. Recommended dress is cocktail attire.
More info courtesy of the NYRR page:
This evening of celebration is for everyone-age-group standouts and up-and-comers,
longtime runners and new members of the pack. At Club Night we honor everything we love
about running in NYC-camaraderie, competition, diversity, and the chance to strive
together as athletes.
NYRR Club Night is the brainchild of the late, great Fred Lebow, whose vision led NYRR
for decades. Lebow created the event in 1980 as a yearly celebration of NYRR members’
outstanding achievements. Every year since, NYRR Club Night has been a tribute to
runners of all backgrounds and a celebration for families, teammates, and friends. Yoga
for Runners! Thanks to Alan Brown Shala Yoga, located at 815 Broadway near Union Square,
has graciously made an offer to FRNY to host a Yoga for Runners workshop! This is
limited to Front Runners members!
The 2-hour workshop will be held on Saturday March 7th at 5:45 PM. There will be
discussion and questions for those new to yoga. Learn how to take care of your body
under the careful supervision of teachers Edward Jones and Frank Mauro.
The discounted cost is $25. SIGN UP! LGBT Expo! The LGBT Expo at the Jacob Javits Center
is the original NYC trade show with hundreds of exhibitors from diverse businesses,
professions, and trades. FRNY is back to work our booth, network, recruit, and show how
fabulous we are.
From Sat, Feb 28-Sun 1, the Social Committee has 4 volunteer slots from 12
noon - 5PM. W 34th St (at 11th Ave). Wear your FRNY gear, and sign-up to
volunteer here! Every year there are special races FRNY makes an effort to
turn out for. These include FRNY-sponsored races, NYRR Points Races, relays, local club
races, and longtime FRNY favorites. Below are the target races for February, March, and
April, so be sure to think about signing up! And there are plenty of additional racing
opportunities on our racing spreadsheet. Be sure to put your name down for all your
races so your teammates know what you’re up to! Not running? The club is always looking
for volunteers to cheer and take photos! Contact the Race Captains if you’re
interested! First, the big one you should all sign up for to run or volunteer at! FRNY
Track Meet!
The 16th Annual Front Runners Indoor Track Meet is almost here, so register online now!
Click here to register!
The entry fee of the meet is $20 per athlete before Monday, March 16, 2015,
which entitles you to run as many races as you want, including relays. Entry fee
is $30 on the day of the event.
Not running? You can volunteer! Reach out to Javie Gomez for volunteer opportunities or
for any questions about the event: trackmeet@frny.org
Looking forward to seeing you on the track!
And on to the rest... 3/1 Washington Heights 5k The first NYRR points race of the
year is sold out. Patrick and Johnny will be hosting their FRNY-favorite fabulous brunch
after the race (689 Fort Washington Ave, 5F). They’re looking for 6 volunteers to help
prepare the brunch. After prepping, you can go downstairs and cheer the runners as they
race by! Contact the
Race Captains if you can help! 3/10 NYRR 10x5x200
Now re-scheduled for March 10, the 10x5x200 lets you earn relay credit while tiring
your legs out on more laps of the Armory track than you can count (5 for you, 50 for
your team, in case you’re wondering). Contact the Race Captains about joining a
team! Register here. 3/15 NYC Half
The race may be sold out, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get involved! Volunteer for a
+1 credit by working the FRNY water station. We need 60 volunteers by the end of
February! Contact Fernando Aguilar [insert link]. Afterwards, Chen Liang will be hosting
a delicious brunch in her building’s rooftop cabana and lounge (225 Rector Place)!
Contact the Race Captains if you’d like to help with the brunch! 3/21 Wurtsboro Mountain
�30k and Relay
FRNY’s first out of town race of the year will be the Wurtsboro Mountain 30k.
That’s 18.6 miles for the non-metrically minded, which is why it will also be that
week’s long run. The eagle-eyed among you will have spotted the word "mountain" in the
race name, which is why there’s a relay option if 18+ miles of uphill running isn’t your
cup of tea. The club will be arranging transportation, so please put your name on the
racing spreadsheet so we know how many vehicles to arrange. Register here 3/21
Michelob ULTRA 13.1 Queens
Don’t feel like leaving the city that weekend? Then you can enjoy a flatter, shorter
race in Flushing Meadows Queens. Use discount code FRNYC15GR to register for $60, saving
$10. Any team that brings 20 athletes or more will be provided with a private booth
space around the finish festival, so start registering yourself here. 4/12 VCTC

Want to earn local club credit in one of the farthest flung corners of the city? Then
come out to Alley Pond Park! A group will be leaving from Rutgers Church at 7:45
am if you feel uncomfortable traveling to such forbidding reaches of Queens by
yourself. Afterwards we’ll explore the foodways of this remote land at a local eatery
TBD. Register today. And don’t forget about the Brooklyn Pride 5K!Registration is
now open for the Brooklyn Pride 5k on June 13th! We’ll be offering the
same great race experience as last year, including: chip timing, tech t-shirts, and
custom Brooklyn Pride Run finisher’s medals. This year the race also
counts as one of the FRNY races for the Participation Award. The early bird registration
fee is the same as last year’s fee: $30. After March 31st it will increase to
$35. Last year we sold out the week of the race, so with early bird pricing there’s now
even more incentive to register early. Register today! Spring Races Starting To Open!

Facing the prospect of gale force winds and single-digit temperatures, many Front
�Runners were left without a race when the Prospect Park Track Club’s Cherry Tree
10-Miler and Relay (also known as the "Race for the Hardcore") was cancelled. Brian
Schroeder lifted the spirits of those looking forward to food and merriment by opening
his home for brunch despite the race cancellation. Thanks, Brian! A few lucky (and
fast!) Front Runners found opportunities to race in warmer climes. Rick Buckheit
captured third place in his age group in the Great Aloha Run, an 8.15-mile race in
Honolulu that started at Aloha Tower, finished in Aloha Stadium and included nearly
15,000 finishers. David Grudzien raced the Atlanta Track Club’s Spring Tune-Up 8K in
51:07. Farther north, Jim Diego celebrated his birthday weekend by running the Myrtle
Beach Neon Nights 5K on Saturday (in 29:16) and the Myrtle Beach Half Marathon on Sunday
(in 2:18:35), marking state number 16 off of the list in his 50-state quest. The lone
Front Runner to brave NYC’s frigid weekend was none other than Sam LaFata, who took
first place in his age group (in 33:09) in the For the Love of Queens 5K on Valentine’s
Day.
NYRR has opened registration for its April races, including the Scotland Run 10K on
April 4, which is again a points race and is likely to sell out well before race day.
NYRR has also opened registration for the Queens 10K on June 21. Although not a points
race, this race could sell out because it is part of the Five Borough Series; runners
looking for guaranteed entry into the NYC Half in 2016 must either qualify on time OR
run four out of the six races in the Five Borough Series.

Walking Gram Submission Guidelines
To submit a piece for the race report, complete
this form before 12 PM on the Tuesday before the Gram. To submit an activity,
event or announcement, email Steven. Only events produced specifically for and by
Front Runners will be published.Gram announcements are at the Board’s discretion. First,
I want to say that this is a long Gram. And that’s not a bad thing. We celebrated one of
the defining evenings of the year -- Awards Night -- and a lot of accomplishments and
hard work was respected and honored. This club is full of so many amazing people that
it’s difficult to pick which ones will win awards on a single night. Let’s take one last
minute to congratulate them.While it’s right to recognize these exceptional individuals,
the truth is that every day there are also members doing amazing things for the
organization, who seldom get recognized :fun run, long run + multisport directors;
members who try and organize special yoga workshops for runners; members who work on
getting volunteers at expos or movie screenings;those who cheer us on and report our
races year-round, or those who help spread the word about last-minute workout changes so
that we can all run our best. This massive running club functions on the amazing
coordination of volunteers who go beyond what is expected, and perform what is needed.
It’s because of them that I’m proud to call myself a Front Runner--Steven Waldon Renew

The Race Captain roster has finally been finalized! Race Captains are responsible for
supporting FRNY’s racing program. Their aim is to ensure members of the club are getting
the best experience possible from their racing. Before races even begin, they publicize
opportunities, including NYRR points and other target races, they put together teams for
relays, and they organize trips to local club and out-of-town races. During races, they
work to make sure there’s a cheer zone to push members to the finish and a photographer
to record the experience. And afterwards they arrange brunches where the club can
celebrate its accomplishments. Finally, they follow members’ progress over the course of
the year and extol it in emails and the weekly race report. You can always
reach your Race Captains by emailing racecaptains@frny.org. The 2015 Race Captains
are: Jennifer BougherBernd ErpenbeckDan FergusonGilbert GaonaTim GuscottBernie

�reports! No accomplishment is too small. All your friends are doing it, and

Giri Parameswaran, speedy as any split end, led all Front Runners in the New York Road
Runners Gridiron four-miler last Sunday. Scorching the course at a 5:53 pace, Giri came
home in a symmetric 23:32, while notching a 72.19 age-graded percentage (AG%). His sixth
in age and 25th overall proved Giri’s highest placements for any NYRR race on
record. Hot-footing along in Giri’s wake came Gen Watanabe at 25:04, seventh in
age, 72nd overall, at a 74.47 AG%. Undeterred by a thermometer reading 26, Gen sported
only his flimsy FRNY singlet and short-shorts - and looked overdressed. Observing that
"the less clothes one has on, the faster one can run," Gen got himself a four-mile PR at
the fleetest pace to date for races over a mile (6:16). Rick Buckheit had Gen closely
covered with a 26:37 finish, third in age, and the highest AG% of any Front Runner - an
empyrean 76.71. A glance at the NYRR race record shows Rick’s no stranger to the upper
reaches of the 70 AG% range, and he’s nosed into the 80 AG% stratum (national class)
more than once. Second-highest AG% honors in the Gridiron (75.63) went to Yoshie (Yaby)
Yabu, also FRNY’s first woman. Yaby snared second place in her age cohort, the highest
placement of any Front Runner, and only 33 women finished faster than the spitfire
47-year-old. This sterling racer has a spotless 70+ NYRR AG% record for the past two
years. (A personal note: Yaby ran the race in support of a racing buddy and age-place
rival who had breast cancer surgery on Monday. "Until she comes back to running," Yaby
says, "I promise myself to be better than yesterday.") The peripatetic Richard Ervais
came in a quarter-minute behind Yaby (28:05), taking seventh in his age group and
putting a 71.49 AG% on the ledger. FRNY’s fifth man, Gerrit Groen, logged a 29:04 with a
64.74 AG% for good measure. Of note, the five Front Runners after Giri range in age from
46 (Gen) to 57 (Rick). One might surmise this could be a blithesome year for FRNY
Masters and Vets. (Our statisticians are checking to see if Giri, Gen, and Gerrit are
the first G-some in a Front Runner top five.) Zipping along at a 7:46 clip, the lissome
Leah Serinsky finished second among FRNY women in 31:03 (62.02 AG%). Lisa Rothman also
blazed home at a sub-eight pace, flying over the finish mat in 31:33 (61.12 AG%). Fresh
from missing an FRNY age group award by a hair’s breadth in 2014, Anne Duquette crossed
the line at 32:22 (60.46 AG%). And Karen La Mura scaled Cat Hill and the West Drive’s
remorseless triple hills in 34:26 to place fifth among the plucky FRNY women. Men’s
Middle Distance Runner of the Year with a new PR! (photo courtesy Katrina Amaro)

Amaro)
In an august augury for FRNY’s men’s Supervets (60+), Tom (Terrific) Malcolm (31:06,
67.39 AG%) and Mark Mascolini (30:02, 72.29 AG%) finished seventh and sixth in their
contemporaneous age group. An incomparable swimmer and sometime road racer for these
many years, Tom vows to compete on pavement more in 2015 - and that will be a huge plus
for an already deep Supervet team. Rising star Alan Brown completed a Super-V threesome
in this race with his dandy 35:16 (61.58 AG%) despite a touchy hamstring. And
UltraUberSuperVet Sam Lafata fed his addiction for NYRR Lucite with another
on-the-podium finish, taking third in his age group.
L-R: Dave Pitches back in action, winning another 1st-place age group award; Tim
Guscott with a fine rust-busting 5K
More good news for FRNY men’s Supervets came from the stalwart Stan More, who bounced
back from a fall full of injury with a 23:18 in the Syracuse Super Couch Potato 5K. No
sofa spud himself, Stan battled a sub-zero wind-chill factor to take second in his
60-to-64 age group. And up Westchester way, Supervet virtuoso Dave Pitches essayed his
first race - indeed, his first run - since spine surgery last year. Dave waltzed home
with a 24:31 - first in his age group by over 2.5 minutes - in the hilly Taconic Road
Runners Freezer 5K. In the same race Tim Guscott posted a sub-7-pace 21:38, his fastest
�5K in two years. Planning a 5K "time trial" every month in 2015, Tim reports being
"happy to kick the new year off with a fast one!"Forty-four Front Runners got themselves
to the Gridiron starting line after the FRNY Awards Gala the night before, and then got
themselves to the
finish. Patrick Hart picked the Gridiron 4 to make his FRNY racing debut with a 33:34
effort, feeling "great to run my first race in a Front Runners’ jersey and get cheered
on by other team members!" With a 35:36, Michael Batal scored a triple PR - fastest 4
miler, fastest average pace, and best lifetime AG%! Miki Mariotti reports having "an
awesome fun time" at the Gridiron, clocking a 30:19 tour of the hilly Central Park loop.
Averring that the race was "very cold, but fun," Maria Woehr cooked up a few BTUs by
cranking out a 36:40. Did any Front Runners heave the (precisely inflated) pigskin in
the pre-race football toss? We race captains begged for reports of football-flinging
heroics but got nary a one.
Also on Sunday, Dan Ferguson, Gilbert Gaona and Dennis Ng anticipated Super Bowl
dramatics at the Alley Pond Striders Alley Bowl V in faraway Queens. Last year these
speedsters took first in this 3 x 1-mile relay in which racers pass a football "baton"
to each other over an exchange zone. This year, arriving a tad tardy, the evocatively
named Tight Ends finished last. But the debonair threesome won the best-dressed award in
their custom-designed FRNY football jerseys.Even farther afield - in Huntington Beach,
California - David Grudzien turned in his third half-marathon of the year with a 2:33:15
in the Surf City Half. And this early trifecta represents more than a midwinter surge.
David figures if he stays healthy he’ll run 40 half-marathons this year.
L-R: Dan Ferguson, Gilbert Gaona, Dennis Ng(photo courtesy Dennis Ng) On the multisport
front, 10 Front Runners competed in the JackRabbit Indoor Tri-laps in a pool, spin on a
bike, and run on a treadmill for set times. Wendy Lai took 10th among women. On the
men’s side, Roger Herr finished sixth, Fernando Aguilar seventh, Anthony Thompson 10th,
Matt Frank 13th, Dave Laurence 14th, John Colligan 15th, Marcus Woolen 16th, Mike
McMahon 21st, and Thomas Wu 25th.
Ladies and gentlemen, Jim Diego! (photo courtesy of Katrina Amaro)
But the biggest winner of the racing week did not compete on the couture runway, win his
age group, or dance his way to a jaw-dropping PR. He sang. Front Runner Jim Diego
dazzled all on hand at the Gridiron four-miler with his rich and nuanced rendition of
the Star-Spangled Banner. Jim not only nailed every treacherous top note, he unfurled
each with gusto and grace. And such portamento!A mild-mannered New York city planner by
day, on nights and weekends Jim sings with the a cappella group Broadway Barkada, judges
a cappella competitions and cuts albums. With appearances at the Kennedy Center and
Carnegie
Hall on his resume, he invites all Front Runners to his February 8 show at the Cutting
Room in the Flatiron district Oh: In his spare moments, Jim is running 50
half-marathons in 50 states, warbling all the way. Attention all racers! NYRR has
announced its points races for 2015. All Front Runners should be ready to sign up as
soon as registration opens for each of this year’s NYRR points races. Getting lots of
Front Runners in all age groups to the starting line of every points race gives FRNY the
best chance to show off our talent, enthusiasm, and legs.

(1:28:16, 73.4%) and Dan Ferguson (72.5%). Inger Berger showed her winter running
proficiency with a 2:49:54 performance that earned her eighth place in her age group.

through Miami and South Beach and escaped the leadup to winter storm Juno. Also on hand
in Miami was David Grudzien, who ran 2:38:07 for his half marathon and 29:48 for the
Tropical 5K the day before.
Richard White also took advantage of the sun in Florida and competed in the Ocala Half
Marathon. He finished in a swift 1:29:13 (77.7% age-graded), which earned him 10th
overall and second place in his age group. Richard exceeded the time qualifying
standards for the New York City Marathon by nearly three minutes.Jim Diego continued his
Southern running spree at the Rock ’n’ Roll Half Marathon in New Orleans. He finished in
2:13:23, fueled by a jello shot at the 12.5-mile mark. Richard White, and two other guys

This week’s scheduled track event (NYRR’s Thursday Night at the Races) at the Armory has
been postponed to February 5 due to the snowstorm. NYRR’s Gridiron Four-Miler in Central
Park is still on schedule for Sunday morning, but the event is already sold out, as is
the Washington Heights 5K (fka Coogan’s 5K) on March 1.

The season’s first New York Road Runners Night at the Races gave Front Runner track
enthusiasts a chance to flaunt their speed at the Washington Heights Armory last
Thursday.
Jennifer Bougher (3:24) and Maria Woehr (3:39) competed in the women’s 800 meters. The
race marked Maria’s debut at this distance. Javie Gomez (2:32), Gilbert Gaona (2:35) and
David White (2:45) represented FRNY in the men’s 800 meters. David’s time was a personal
record. Gilbert blazed through the men’s mile in 5:39. And all five of these runners
joined forces to compete as "Dave’s Ladies" in the mixed 5 x 1000 meter relay. L-R:
Gilbert Gaona, Maria Woehr, Javie Gomez, David White, Jennifer Bougher. Photo courtesy

just a week after completing marathons on consecutive days in Mississippi and Alabama.

completed the Rock ’n’ Roll Half-Marathon in Phoenix in 2:18:02. He also finished the
Rock ’n’ Roll 5K in 29:13 a day earlier, and got to pose for a photo with American
distance-running hottie, er, star Ryan Hall.If you yearn to be a track star, the
next NYRR Night at the Races meet is scheduled for Jan. 29. This Sunday’s NYRR
Manhattan Half-Marathon is sold out, but you can still get into the NYC Runs

Heights Salsa, Blues and Shamrocks 5K on March 1. Be sure to register before it
sells out.
Jim Diego and his biggest fan, Ryan Hall.

This week, Front Runners shook off the icicles and braved the frigid 17-degree air to
compete in the NYRR’s first race of the year - the Joe Kleinerman 10K. Among the 39 FRNY
participants were Gen Watanabe (40:52, PR and 11th in age!), Alan Brown (54:31), Miki
Mariotti (55:12), Michael Batal (61:19, debut!), Sandra Pabis (54:41, PR!), Kevin
McCahill (44:56, PR!), and Sam LaFata (1:08:25, 1st in age!). Jerry McDonnell led the
FRNY men in 39:39, capturing 11th in his age group, and new Front Runner Yoshie ("Yaby")
Yabu led the women in 44:48 and won 4th in her age group!
On Sunday, NYCRUNS kicked off its year with the Central Park 10-miler. Richard White won
2nd in his age group in 1:09:58 (6:59/mi), and Drew Sheppard raced for FRNY in 1:58:04!
Though 2015 has just begun, FRNYers have also already been traveling all over the
country to run marathons and half marathons. Stalwarts Tim Guscott, Giovanny Leon,
Zander Ross, and Richard Ervais started the year off in impressive fashion, running
back-to-back marathons this past weekend. On Saturday they ran the Mississippi Blues
Marathon in Jackson, MS, and then traveled to Mobile, AL, for the First Light Marathon
�on Sunday. Richard’s back-to-back marathon finishes were 4:09:59 and 4:24:04, while
Zander’s were 4:13:07 and 4:16:53. Tim ran the Saturday marathon in 4:13:05, and then
ran Sunday’s marathon even faster: 4:07:09. Jim Diego raced the hilly Half on Saturday
in MS in 2:19:13, and backed it up with the Half in AL on Sunday in 2:29:41, and
supported charity in the process! And David Grudzien joined Jim for the Mississippi
Blues Half, finishing in 2:40:30.
Also running down south were Megan McDavid, Beth Strickland, and Brendan McLellan. Megan
completed the Disney World Marathon in 6:07:49, with Ethan Fusaris on hand to cheer.
Beth and Brendan also ran the Disney World Marathon, but each did so as part of,
respectively, the Goofy and Dopey Challenges. Beth’s Goofy Challenge involved running a
half marathon on Saturday (3:06:25), followed by the marathon on Sunday (7:03:41). The
Dopey Challenge takes the Goofy Challenge stakes and raises them a 5k on Thursday and a
10k on Friday. Congratulations everyone on these amazing achievements! Also
running down south were Megan McDavid, Beth Strickland, and Brendan McLellan. Megan
completed the Disney World Marathon in 6:07:49, with Ethan Fusaris on hand to cheer.
Beth and Brendan also ran the Disney World Marathon, but each did so as part of,

Dopey Challenge takes the Goofy Challenge stakes and raises them a 5k on Thursday and a

Watanabe took to the water this weekend, completing the One Hour Swim in (wait for
it...) one hour, and swimming 3400 yards.For those looking to join your teammates in
these races, there are plenty of FRNY training options! Come join us! Also, note that
NYRR has opened registration for its spring races, many of which will sell out quickly.
In particular, be sure to sign up now for the Washington Heights 5k in March; it will
almost certainly be a Club Points race, and will sell out.

To submit a piece for the race report, such as a personal record (PR), first time
at a distance, or other achievement, complete
this form for the Race Captains. Reports received by 12 PM on Tuesday will be
included in Thursday’s Gram.
To submit an activity, event or announcement, email Steven. Only events produced
specifically for and by Front Runners will be published.Gram announcements are at the
Board’s discretion. Whoohoo, my first Front Runner Gram! Boom! It’s the first Front
Runner Gram of 2015! First and foremost, I want to say thank you for giving me the
opportunity to lead Front Runners New York. FRNY is one of the largest and best running
groups in New York City, and I recognize the great responsibilities that come with
leading this club. Thankfully I have a talented and dedicated Board that I know
will do an amazing job. If you need a refresher, they’re: Women’s Vice President: Stacey
Cooper
Men’s Vice President: Fernando Aguilar
Treasurer: Andrew Cunningham
Secretary: Brian Schroeder
Director at Large: Diane Lowy
Director at Large: Elke Gasselseder
Speaking of the new Board, come meet them at the Board Breakfast following this
Saturday’s fun run. Matt Tivy will be catering the event to ring in the new year! We as
a club have a lot to look forward to in 2015. I plan on making a few changes and
additions to our programs (all good, I promise!) in an attempt to serve both the social
and competitive aspects of our club. Of course this can’t happen without your help and
input, so speak up and lend a hand. What better way that applying to be on a committee
for 2015! To give you a glimpse of the year ahead: On January 21st I will be
representing FRNY at the NYRR Club Council meeting where we hope to keep the Pride Run
as an NYRR points race. Once these races are established for 2015, I look forward to a
fun and competitive season of racing from all of our racers. Whether you’re looking to
PR or try new distances, our great coach Keohane can help you!I will be reviving a
pre-Lin era staple, the monthly Next Mile e-mail newsletter. If you’re receiving the
Gram you’ll also receive the Next Mile beginning February 1st (along with opt-out
instructions if you wish!).Ever wanted to run with friends around the entire 30+ mile
perimeter of Manhattan? Here’s your chance! Be on the lookout for the inaugural
Manhattan Perimeter 50K Relay (5 x 10K) this spring! Stay tuned and stick around. I
promise 2015 will be an epic year!
---Steven Waldon Play A Bigger Role in 2015 Join A Committee!
There are over 20 committees that help this club stay on course. We have groups focused
on diversity, membership, finance, racing, social events, beginner runners, and so much
more! If you’ve wondered how you can get involved and want to serve on a committee, take
a look at the list to the left, just beneath the upcoming races. Contact the chair of
that committee or e-mail the board that you’re interested. Most committee
positions will be decided on during the first board meeting Jan 13 (details below) so
�act fast! Become A Race Captain!
If you love following and celebrating the racing accomplishments of your fellow runners
or if you enjoy organizing races outside the NYRR sphere, consider being a race captain!
There are two "types" of race captains. The first is what many of us are familiar with
when we submit our race results via the website. We always get words of encouragement
from our race captains and they go on to use those submissions to write the Race Report,
no small task. The second batch of race captains is responsible for putting together so
many of the non-NYRR outings. Did you have help getting a Cherry Tree relay team
together? Was this your first year doing the Taconic XC relay race? Did you hitch a ride
to the Wurtsboro 30K earlier this year? Chances are, it was through the help of our race
captains. They provide logistical support for making those things happen. To apply
e-mail me directly at president@frny.org FRNY at the 2014 Taconic Relay. Consider
being a race captain to organize great outings like this! New Year’s Reminders! Renew
Your Membership! The 2015 membership renewal drive is now open! All 2014 FRNY

so, Click Here to renew your membership for 2015 now! When you renew your

organizing, and to all who donated shoes and sneakers to our FRNY Shoe Drive. Together
we collected 109 pairs of running sneakers and shoes and donated
to Soles4Souls. Thanks to all who helped make this a success! This Week’s
Long Run
Before going on with this weekend’s long run details, I’d like to welcome and introduce
to you our two long run co-directors for 2015: Dan Ferguson and Connor Essick! They will
be co-directing for the year and already they need hosts for January and February! If
you can open your apartment for a lovely winter run, send them an e-mail! Welcome them
by coming to the first long run of 2015. This week’s long run starts from Alan
Brown and Gen Watanabe’s apartment in the West Village at 80 Perry Street #5W (Buzzer
#3). The run starts at 9am and you can choose from 10 and 15-mile options. For more
details and to RSVP, check out this new RSVP page.. Questions? Email Long Run

Multisport Athletes - FRNY had amazing representation at nearly every race in the
region, and took home a ton of medals up at this year’s Gay Games. Congratulations to
all, and we look forward to all of your accomplishments and training next season! Each
year, we’ve been delighted to welcome new runners to our multisport group, and watch so
many FRNY members finish their first triathlon. If it’s something you’ve been thinking
about doing, why not give it a ’Tri’ in 2015? image courtesy of Marcus
Woolen
Interested in Joining the Multisport Committee? We’re looking for new committee members
to help us strategize, pick goal races, organize events, and put together the weekly
multisport email in the coming year! For more info, or if you think you might be
interested, please get in touch with us at multisport@frny.org by January 5th.
Monday Night Swim Is Back! We will be switching to informal Monday night swims
with pre-planned workout at Roosevelt Island for January and February, to be followed by
a stair workout led by Matt Frank. We will not have anyone on deck as a coach and we
should expect to be in lanes with swimmers not from FRNY. Anyone swimming will
need to be considerate of everyone else in their lane. Please keep an eye out for a
supplemental email this week with more details sent to the Multisport Group - if you’re
not receiving the multisport updates, and would like to, or have other questions,
email the Multisport Committee The One Hour Swim Is Back! (Jan 10 &
25)

Front Runners New York completed a standout year in the New York Road Runners club
competition, handily winning the Men’s Open B division and placing high in several other
men’s and women’s brackets.
NYRR’s newly updated final standings for 2014 show the men’s open squad claiming 147 out
of a possible 150 points to take the division crown, beating the second-place Taconic
Road Runners by a healthy 37 points. FRNY’s men finished first in eight of the nine
races that counted toward the team’s title. In the remaining race, the New York City
Marathon, the team came in second. In all, 147 teams competed in the B division in 2014,
and 132 of them scored at least one point.
(Each year, 11 NYRR races are designated as "points" events. Clubs’ scores in their best
nine points races count toward the championship. The Team Championships in August count
for double points.)The FRNY women’s open team fought valiantly all year against tough
foes and finished 12th out of 13 in the ultra-competitive Open A division. Among the
high points was the marathon, which saw the women outscore four other clubs.FRNY’s older
runners demonstrated that age is no barrier to athletic achievement. The women’s 40-plus
team impressed by finishing fourth in a field of 104 while the 40-plus men came in 13th
out of 126. The 50-plus men claimed eighth place in their division. The 50-plus women
took 15th. The men’s 60-plus squad notched a fourth-place finish while the 60-plus women
came in 16th.Despite the holiday lull, at least a couple of FRNYers managed to satisfy
their thirst for racing. Jim Diego completed the Operation Jack KC Run in the Snow
half-marathon in Shawnee, Kansas -- meeting his goal of running 14 halves in ’14. And
Marcus Woollen placed second in age in the Jersey Shore Running Club Polar Bear 5K in
Asbury Park.Happy New Year! The 2015 racing schedule is about to get underway, so be
sure to register soon so you don’t miss out. The year’s first NYRR race, the Joe
Kleinerman 10K on Jan. 10, is nearing capacity. The Jan. 25 Manhattan Half is already
sold out.

}; April 8, 2015 In This Issue Women’s Mini-Workshop: Ultra Marathons NYRR Oakley Mini
10k LGBT Pride Run Scholarships How Am I Doing? Front Runners New
York P.O. Box 230087 New York, NY 10023 membership@frny.org It’s finally spring
and it’s time to climb out of hybernation. It was so nice to walk around Manhattan this
week without a heavy winter coat and feel a little bounce in my step. Spring also means
that the racing season will be in full swing soon with a race almost every single
weekend through the fall plus a ton of FRNY events that you might be interested in.
Women’s Mini-Workshop: Ultra Marathons The second mini-workshop in our series will take
place on April 25 and will focus on ultra marathons. Ultras are gaining in popularity
and this is the place to find out how you can start training for one. Our experts will
be Cindy Hearing, Bernie Janelle, and Michelle Johnson. They’ll discuss how you can
start training for ultras, how to find a beginner friendly ultra, and what equipment you
need. We’re going to have some raffles and a great display of everything you can
possibly fit or need into one bag for an ultra race. NYRR Oakley Mini 10k The
Oakley Mini 10k is the oldest all female road race in the world and some of the world’s
greats like Paula Radcliff, Deena Kastor, and Kara Goucher have run in this great event.
This is also one of NYRR’s Club Points Races and is a great opportunity for the FRNY
women to show what a great team we are to the NYC running community. Registration is
still open so please register today
at http://www.nyrr.org/races-and-events/2015/oakley-new-york-mini-10k. LGBT Pride
Run Speaking of points races, registration has opened for several others including
our own LGBT Pride Run. This race has become so popular that it’s a guarantee sell out.
If you haven’t registered yet please do because we don’t want you to miss out on all the
fun and the rainbow popsicles. We’ll also have our great post-run brunch after the team
photo! Scholarships The NYC Marathon, NYC Half Marathon, the Brooklyn Half Marathon, and
all those NYRR Points Races. It can get expensive representing Front Runners at all of
these races and it doesn’t seem like any of the registration fees will be decreasing any
time soon or that any of us will hit it big in Lotto. Thankfully, FRNY has a great
scholarship program just for this! Applying for a scholarship is quick and easy. If you
have been a member for at least three months and need a little financial assistance for
these races just login to the members section on frny.org and fill out the form. We just
need your name, address, name of the race, cost, and a brief statement about why you
could use the scholarship. That’s it! It’s completely confidential and ready for you to
use it if you need it. How Am I Doing? The first quarter of the year is over and I want
to check in with you to see how I’m doing. Do you think I’m doing a good job. Could I be
doing more? What do you want to see more of? Do you have suggestions for getting more
women involved in FRNY? Do you think I’m asking too many questions? You voted for me to
represent you and I want to make sure I am giving you a voice and am listening to your
comments and suggestions. Do not ever hesitate to reach out to me whether in person or
by dropping me a line at women@frny.org. I look forward to seeing you at an
upcoming FRNY event or hitting the pavement in an upcoming race!

P.O. Box 230087
New York, NY 10023
membership@frny.org Look at all these wonderful women. You should all come to a
Saturday Fun Run! Pleeeeeeaaaaaaase!!!! By the time you get this I will be in sunny (I
hope) Miami getting away from the cold here in New York. I am sorry and it’s ok if you
don’t like me anymore.
I want to take a moment to say thank you for putting your trust in me to represent you
on the FRNY Board of Directors. I am excited and honored to represent you in 2015.
I’ll be sending these occasional email messages as I know not everyone is on Facebook
and I want to make sure that all of you are aware of our upcoming events and how you can
get involved. Don’t worry, I’m not going to bombard you with a ton of email either.
Membership
If you haven’t already done so, please renew your FRNY Membership. There are so many
great things you get with your membership, including this great email from me! But
seriously, if you attend one of our regularly coached workouts or long runs you do need
to be a member to take advantage of these. We’re at that point where people who have not
renewed will be turned away. We don’t want you to miss a workout, the FR Gram, or have
to remove you from the Women’s Facebook group. You can renew your membership
here.
Saturday Fun Runs
I know it’s not always easy to get out of bed on a Saturday when it’s cold out, you
haven’t been running much, or you have an injury. That’s ok, we still want to see you at
our Saturday Fun Runs! Maybe we can do an easy run around the lower loop of Central Park
or even just meet up at Rutgers after to enjoy a bagel. Just stop by to say Hi!
Women’s Mini-Workshops
One of the new programs I’m starting for our Women’s team are women-centered
mini-workshops that will take place every couple of months after the Saturday Fun Run at
Rutgers. See, here’s another reason to come to a Saturday Fun Run.
These workshops are intended to introduce you to some of the offerings that we have at
FRNY and other training opportunities that are out there. These workshops will be led
primarily by our female experts in FRNY because who better to get us excited about new
opportunities than our own peers!
The first workshop is scheduled for February 21 and will focus on our Multisport
program. If you ever thought about doing a triathlon and wanted to know how to get
started this is the place to be.
Our speakers will be Katrina Amaro, Rachel Cutler, Alison McKenna, and Kent Lau. They’ll
let us know how they got involved in triathlons, how we can start training for one, what
equipment we need, how to find a beginner friendly tri, and what type of training
support exists within FRNY.
They are really excited about having the opportunity to tell you about their passion for
this sport and I heard that there might be a special giveaway for the first woman to
register for her first tri!
Future workshops will focus on ultra-running, track workouts, and perhaps strength
training for women runners. If you have an idea for a workshop please drop me a line.
Drop Me a Line!
Speaking of dropping me a line, I do want to hear from you. Are we meeting your needs in
the club? Is there something you would like us to bring back that hasn’t been done in a
while? Do you have an idea to get more women involved in FRNY events? Contact me.
See you soon!
