FRNY is therefore making scholarships available to members who had registered to run NYC and now choose to do another fall marathon. Up to $100 per applicant may be awarded for registration fees and/or expenses for any marathon up to December 2. Please apply for scholarships through our online form.  Email the Scholarship Committee with any questions.  Marathon Spreadsheet Here is a linkable spreadsheet for those signing up for a fall/winter alternative marathon to NYC. Please enter your info and check back to the spreadsheet frequently to coordinate with other Front Runners who might be doing the same race as you. Long Distance Coach Jonathan Warner is available to help, also, and this document will help him to connect teammates who are doing the same race.  Harrisburg, PA Marathon  The Harrisburg, PA Marathon seems to be popular with FRNY with some 25 registrants as of Saturday morning. FRNY will host a team dinner Saturday night in Harrisburg. Details will be forthcoming in Thursday’s Gram. Online registration for the Harrisburg Marathon closes at midnight on Wednesday, November 7 unless it closes out before then. No Long Run There will be no organized Blue Line Run taking place on Marathon Sunday. City officials and NYRR urge runners to stay off the marathon course to prevent inflaming already high emotions and creating unnecessary conflict or confrontation. FRNY’s board and coaches want to show support and solidarity with the city in these times, and urge you to avoid the marathon course. This is also for your personal safety.    If you are signing or signed up for an alternative marathon, run an appropriate distance on a familiar and comfortable course as you see fit according to your training needs, and contact Koach Kelsey or Jonathan Warner if you are unsure as to what your needs are.    A great way to expend your energies tomorrow would be to volunteer yourself as a physical laborer as able and as conscience dictates. North Brooklyn Runners has invited FRNY to join them at a relief effort in Red Hook, Brooklyn tomorrow and a running club potluck after volunteering. Details are below.  NBR Volunteer Effort and Potluck: 11/4/12 Front Runners are invited to join NBR at St. Jacobi Church in Sunset Park (406 4th Avenue - Sunset Park, Brooklyn) at 10 AM tomorrow, Sunday, November 4.    Please sign up and check for transit sharing options here. The plan is to work with Red Hook Recovers doing thing such as sorting donations, preparing food, and going out to affected areas in cars.

Box 230087 New York, New York 10023 membership@frny.org   Awards Night: 1/21/12   Please purchase your Tenth Annual Awards Night tickets by this weekend: Sunday, January 15 at 5 PM. The event is 6 to10 PM on Saturday, January 21, 2012 at Union Theological Seminary at 3041 Broadway (at 121 Street). As with any Front Runners event, please email any Board Member if you would like to attend but financial concerns are an obstacle. If you have any questions regarding online registration or your tickets, please email Megan Jenkins. Swimming Program Beginning this coming Monday night, January 16, our payment arrangement with the YMCA has changed.  When you arrive, do not pay the YMCA your $5 entry fee; rather, simply tell them you are with Front Runners. When you arrive on the deck, please sign your name with Koach Kent. Swim fees until the end of January are waived, so now’s the time to try it out. There is a limit 15 people only, first come, first served. Starting in February, we will implement a new fee payment system. You must be a 2012 FRNY member to participate, so renew your membership now, if you haven’t already. Become a Certified Official   FRNY is seeking interested members to become USATF certified officials. To improve our Annual Track Meet, we will be providing certified officials from our membership. If you are interested in earning your certification and helping out at the meet, please attend an interest meeting on Saturday, January 28 at 1 PM at Kelsey’s home (One Columbus Place, Apt. N23E). Email Kelsey to RSVP. FRNY Training Partners    FRNY is piloting a Training Partners Google Group, where members can search for partners to train with when they can’t make the organized runs or multisport workouts.  Anyone who is interested in joining the Group can visit the FRNY Training Partners site or email moderators Michael Klein or Gemma Sanz de la Serna for more information. Training Tip   Learn to trust yourself in your workouts. Don’t be afraid to be aggressive and tough early in an interval.  (Of course, you must temper this with judgment -- but I’m talking about paces that are reasonable.) Trust that you will be able to finish the entire interval and the entire workout.  The worst that could happen is you slow down, maybe not even finish the workout, but you pushed yourself. This is OK, you’ll learn. Just push yourself. This will translate to trusting yourself and pushing yourself in a race, and eventually, running faster times. FRNY Long Runs: 1/15/12 This week’s long run will be held on Sunday and will cover 14 miles starting from the home of Phil Wahba in the Upper West Side.  As with all of our runs, mileage can be adjusted up or down to suit your training needs. Details are in this week’s long run email -- to sign up for the long run email, please sign up here. Jock-a-thon: 1/25/12 FRNY is hosting a table at the Jock-a-Thon Gay Sports Networking and Recruitment Event on Wednesday, January 25 from 6 to 9 PM at Dave & Busters, 234 West 42nd Street.  The event is free and there will be lots of drink specials and other gay athletes. Stop by to say hi, or if you are interested in volunteering for a shift, please contact Michael Klein.  Multisport Spin is Starting this Saturday!  On January 14 we will start our winter spin season at Crank Cycle after the fun run.  The season will last through the end of March.  The cost will be $11, which includes shoe rental.  E-mail the studio with your name and phone number, to reserve your spot. There are 24 bikes available and �class will be about 75 minutes long.   Volunteers needed for JackRabbit RESOLVE on 1/24 and 1/25: FRNY will have an informational booth set up at at JackRabbit’s club training events on January 24 and 25.  The event will be at JackRabbit’s 72nd Street store on the 24th and the 14th Street store on the 25th, 6 to 8 PM both nights.  Please email us if you are available to staff a table on either night.   TNYA’s One Hour Swim on Jan 28: Registration for the OHS at John Jay College is here.  (You must have a current US Masters Swimming membership to participate -- click here to renew your USMS membership for 2012.).  Koach Kent is helping to put together relays -- let him know if you are interested!  Funds raised will benefit the AIDS Service Center and Immigration Equality.  You may make a charitable donation to the event here.   See the calendar at frny.org for details on our regular swimming and cycling workouts. Email Mike and Rachel to be added to the weekly multisport email list. 2012 Points Races Announced   The NYRR Club Council voted Wednesday, January 11 on the 2012 points races.

There is a limit 15 people only, first come, first served. Starting in February, we will implement a new fee payment system. FRNY Training Partners    FRNY is piloting a Training Partners Google Group, where members can search for partners to train with when they can’t make the organized runs or multisport workouts.  Anyone who is interested in joining the Group can visit the FRNY Training Partners site or email moderators Michael Klein or Gemma Sanz de la Serna for more information. Training Tip   Pick a specific distance to train for and focus on that for a few months at a time. It is difficult to train well for both long and short distances. If you attempt to train for both, you increase the risk of injury because the specific workouts for, let’s say a marathon and a 5K, stress your body in different ways. You’re less likely to perform optimally in either event if your training is not focused. That said, at different parts of a long training season, your workouts may shift focus.  For example, in the early stages of marathon training, speed workouts are a good idea. FRNY Long Runs: 1/21/12 This week’s long run will be on Saturday and will support the Manhattan Half Marathon in Central Park by running in the opposite direction and cheering the racers. Recommended distance for this week is 10 miles and we will start from Rutgers at 9 AM sharp.   Details are in this week’s long run email -- to sign up for the long run email, please sign up here. Awards Night After-Party: 1/21   After Awards Night, we will celebrate some more at The Underground, located on Broadway at 107th Street (955 West End Avenue, right where Broadway becomes West End Avenue). For more information, contact the Social Committee -- Anthony Ng, Sandi Rowe, Aneesh Sheth, �and Timmy Wilson. Jock-a-thon: 1/25/12 FRNY is hosting a table at the Jock-a-Thon Gay Sports Networking and Recruitment Event on Wednesday, January 25 from 6 to 9 PM at Dave & Busters, 234 West 42nd Street.  The event is free and there will be lots of drink specials and other gay athletes. Stop by to say hi, or if you are interested in volunteering for a shift, please contact Michael Klein.  Multisport Spin is Happening on Saturdays!

Race ReportBermuda, Bahama, come on pretty mama!  There were some fast races run and comebacks as well this last weekend.  Long distance guys Dave Lin, Dane Grams, and Timmy Wilson brought new meaning to destination racing at the Bermuda Marathon and Half Marathon. Dave flew through the half marathon course in an impressive 1:33:05 (25th place overall and 10th place in his Age Group!) and Dane ran 1:49:13 for his first race �in over a year!  Timmy put up an impressive performance in the marathon and ran a 4:39:37 with Amelia Earhart’s help getting him back on course after slipping away into the Bermuda Triangle.  Nice work gentlemen on a hilly course with a headwind.All eyes descended upon Houston for an epic running weekend.  Some of our very own Front Runners watched the trials on Saturday and cheered on both Team USA and Team NYRR.It seems that watching the elites and the flat course were the perfect combination for some fabulous races run in the Chevron Houston Marathon and Half Marathon. Following in the footsteps of Meb and Shalane, was our very own Assistant Coach Darin Soler with his best time in over 2 years (3:12:56) and  Cenk with his new PR (3:24:37)!  World traveler, Richard Ervais delivered a BQ performance (3:28:57) and Daniel Guralnick made us proud with a 3:45:48. Zander Ross also added another marathon to his 2012 results, coming in at 4:21:54. Our very own first lady, Blossom Coryat, ran a 4:06:26 which even included a handshake from George H. Bush during the race!  Running the Houston half we had Bernd Erpenbeck in a speedy 1:43:55 who then was able to cheer on FRNY in the Houston marathon with TJ Jones, Zachary Johnson, and President Megan Jenkins! Fabulous running everyone! You made the Big Apple proud down south.This Thursday is the second installment of NYRR’s Thursday Night at the Races.  The excitement starts at 7:00 at The Armory. Come cheer or decide to lace up those spikes!  Also, don’t forget to report your races in our new race reporting form.

When you arrive on the deck, please sign your name with Koach Kent. Swim fees until the end of January are waived, so now’s the time to try it out. There is a limit 15 people only, first come, first served. Starting in February, we will implement a new fee payment system. FRNY Training Partners    FRNY is piloting a Training Partners Google Group, where members can search for partners to train with when they can’t make the organized runs or multisport workouts.  Anyone who is interested in joining the Group can visit the FRNY Training Partners site or email moderators Michael Klein or Gemma Sanz de la Serna for more information. Training Tip   Keep a running log. It will help you keep track of your training better than relying only on your memory.You will be more likely to identify workouts that work really well for you or training flaws, such as overtraining.Just make quick notes of what you ran, how you ran it, how you felt, eating and sleeping habits (at a minimum just the workout).There are electronic versions that will help convert information to graphs for you, or you can simply use pen and paper.    FRNY Long Runs: 1/29/12 This week’s long run will be held on Sunday and will cover 16 miles starting from the home of Cenk Bulbul in Hell’s Kitchen. As with all of our runs, mileage can be adjusted up or down to suit your training needs.  We will be using staggered start times depending on pace/distance.     Details are in this week’s long run email -- to sign up for the long run email, please sign up here. Email Darin and Bernie with any questions.  Multisport   Saturday Spinning!  Join us for winter spin class at Crank Cycle from 1:15pm after the fun run.  The cost is $11 (which includes shoe rental).  E-mail the studio with your name and phone number to reserve your spot.  There are 24 bikes available and class will be about 75 minutes long.   XTERRA Wetsuit Discounts and Wetsuits for Sale!  See the Monday Multisport blast for details on our latest Front Runner deals from XTERRA and a wetsuit for sale by Front Runner AJ Stachelek.

Training Tip   When setting goals for the year, remember that there are two types of goals: process goals and outcome goals. Process goals identify something that you will do, for example, I will run at least 4 times a week every week or I will not run more than 2 races a month. Outcome goals identify a result, for example, I will run a race where I hit a 65% age graded % or higher by July 1 or I will run a sub 4-hour marathon in the fall.  It’s best if the goals are aligned so that you are more likely to achieve your outcome goal if your work towards your process goal. And finally, set SMART goals -- Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Time-oriented.  Track Buddy Program   If you would like an experienced track runner to meet you tonight at the NYRR Thursday Night Track Meet to walk you through registration, warm up, and how to line up for heats, click here.

Race Report   On the eve of the new year, many Front Runners turned out to welcome 2012 by running midnight runs in the tri-state area. In Central Park NYRR hosted the Emerald Nuts Midnight Run, a distinct and festive tradition since 1978 that includes music and a massive dance party followed by a costume contest shortly before midnight. It should come as no surprise that none other than Ruth Gursky (and friends), as Jewish nun Sister Granola of the Sisters of St. Emerald’s, would end up winning the costume contest. Congratulations, Ruth! The following day in Prospect Park, Ruth would also end up taking 5th place in Harry’s Handicap, a 5K race whose winners are those who perform most closely to their predicted finishing time.Unfortunately, there are no official results available for the Emerald Nuts Midnight Run. We know there were a lot of Front Runners out there running and cheering everyone on, and we appreciate everyone who came out and put on the blue and orange to represent FRNY in the first race of 2012.Meanwhile, in Asbury Park the Front Runner contingent of Dave Lin, Jeff Werner, Joe Baker and Anthony Ng filled their weekend with two races to ring in the new year. Jeff, Joe and Dave ran the Jersey Shore Running Club’s Polar Bear 5-Mile Run along the boardwalk and finished off the race with a brisk dip in the Atlantic. Five hours later they were joined by Anthony for the New Year’s Eve Twilight Run and Beer Blast, a "three-ish" mile run, with Dave Lin taking all-star honors by winning the race with a first-place time of 17:04! Joe Baker was close behind, finishing 3rd overall in 18:03, while Jeff Werner finished in 19:02 and Anthony Ng placed in a perfectly timed 20:12 to ring in 2012.As of today NYRR races through March are posted on their website and open for registration. Only the Manhattan Half Marathon is at capacity, so if you’re interested please visit nyrr.org for more information.Registration is open for the 2012 Cherry Tree 10-Miler and 3-Person Relay. This year’s race will be held Sunday, February 19th at 10 AM. For more information visit the Prospect Park Track Club website. Also, plan to head over to Rachel Cutler’s home afterward for a fabulous FRNY brunch. Congratulations to all our runners, and we look forward to a successful 2012 racing season.

Training Tip For the next few days after a marathon or a long run of 20 miles or more, you may experience fatigue and soreness. Delayed onset muscle soreness may cause you to feel most sore 48 hours later. This is normal. Exercise only when you feel ready to. Anything that you do will promote circulation and aid healing and recovery.  Whether you walk, jog, run, cycle, or swim, take it easy. Your body is still recovering. If anything is sore, ice it after your workout. You have the right to eat anything you want.   Long Run: 10/14/12 There will be no hosted long run this week in light of Grete’s Gallop Half Marathon.

Training Tip For the next few days after a marathon or a long run of 20 miles or more, you may experience fatigue and soreness. Delayed onset muscle soreness may cause you to feel most sore 48 hours later. This is normal. Exercise only when you feel ready to. Anything that you do will promote circulation and aid healing and recovery.  Whether you walk, jog, run, cycle, or swim, take it easy. Your body is still recovering. If anything is sore, ice it after your workout. You have the right to eat anything you want.   Long Run: 10/14/12 There will be no hosted long run this week in light of Grete’s Gallop Half Marathon.

Training Tip Here’s a tip for those running the Blue Line Run: use this as a dress rehearsal in every sense. Since you don’t want to try anything new the day of the race, eat the same breakfast you plan to eat on marathon day; wear the same sneakers you plan to race in; use the same fuel.    Please note that this is the last week of organized workouts this season. An Armory �Training information session will be announced soon.  24-Mile Water Station: 11/4/12 If you are not running, join in supporting FRNYers and all marathoners by volunteering at the Famous FRNY Mile 24 Water Station. The fun starts at 7:45 AM on Marathon Day, Sunday November 4 and goes all day long. Three shifts of volunteers will set up and start handing out water to the speediest runners (7:45 AM - 11:15 AM), hand out water and rake up cups (11 AM - 3 PM) and cheer the last runners and clean up (2:45 PM - 6:30 PM). Click here to sign up!   FRNY Water Captains Martha Dao and Marty Tracy want to staff an all-LGBT-Sport-Club water station this year, complete with rainbow leis, baked goods, and good cheer.

Coming in first for the ladies was Blossom Coryat in a solid time of 1:51:37.  Neck and neck for second and third were Bernie Janelle (1:57:23) and Jillian Ternosky (1:57:30) making the distance look easy.  And rounding out the impressive top 5 were Karin Lundell (1:59:04) and Cindy Hearing (1:59:44.) Inspirational stuff, ladies, for 27th place city-wide!    For our 40+ women, top scorers were Bernie Janelle, Karin Lundell, and Cindy Hearing.  These speedy ladies were 18th place city-wide. For our 50+ women, the team was 7th place overall with Bernie Janelle, Karin Lundell, and Dorothy Fuscaldo (2:00:50.) This is wonderful stuff!   Sara Ray also showed us a strong performance with a four minute improvement from the Staten Island Half just the weekend prior.  Congrats on your new pr of 2:00:53. The women continued to impress with wonderful performances. Dorothy was 4th in her age group and placed on the honor roll while Inger-Jo Berger was 13th in her age.  Karin Lundell was 11th in her age too!  Running the race as long training runs were �Kelli, Lourdes, Michelle, and Alison.  Also running strong were Caitlin, Eyra, Devon, Gemma, Allison, and Rochelle!  Way to go, women!   The men were pretty impressive in Grete’s Great Gallop, too!  Leading the way for a 9th place finish city-wide was a speedy Chris Fisher (1:20:08.)  Coming in second and third for the guys were Gabe Benroth (1:20:47) and Salem Almaani (1:21:14).  This was Salem’s first run for the team and it was a speedy debut as well!  Michael Klein ran to a new PR and fourth place finish in 1:21:50.  Rounding out the top 5 was Jerome McDonnell in a consistently strong, 1:22:41.  Great running, gentlemen!    For our 40+ men, we had speedsters Patrick Guilfoyle (1:24:50), John Van Cott (1:27:48), and Martin McElhiney (1:29:36) bring us an 11th place finish city-wide.  Also, our 50+ men showed the city that we only get stronger with age.  This 3rd place team consisted of Patrick Guilfoyle, Martin McElhiney, and Richard White (1:33:08).  And, our men’s 60+ team was equally impressive for a 6th place finish with Dave Pitches (1:43:45), Mark Mascolini (1:51:26), and Scott Emmons (2:03:23.)  Gaining new PRs at the half distance were Matt Kovich (1:32:39, a 4 minute PR!) and Michael Cavaliere (1:31:57).  In his first time at the distance, Brian Murphy ran the race in a speedy 1:44:56.  Making the honor roll were Patrick Guilfoyle (5th in his age), Miles Harter (1:35:06 and 9th in his age), and Dave Pitches (2nd in his age!)  Miles also got a new age-graded PR!!  Congrats also to Giordano Fusco who ran the race as a training run (1:35:44) and Karl Rutter who enjoyed the race in 2:43:17.  Also finishing strong was Jeremy Reiss, with a 1:26:13.   Special thanks to Paul Racine, Michael Grubb, Brian Schroeder and Kelsey Louie for being there to push everyone towards the finish. Wonderful work, men!   Over at the LaGuardia Airport 5K, Benjamin Corbett and Ned Russell were flying (literally).  Benjamin flew through the race in 20:39 to earn 2nd in his age group and 11th overall while Ned was ready for take-off in 25:10.  You would think they were the airplanes on that runway!  Ben Corbett and Ned Russell at the LGA 5K 5Ks were popular this weekend as Dave Laurence and Mike McMahon ran the Archangel Michael Church’s fifth annual 5K.  This race out in Roslyn, New York supported the Tom Zangas Lung Cancer Foundation. Mike and Dave sped through the course in 21:20 and 26:20, respectively.   Good morning Baltimore!  Brendan McLellan took advantage of chilly temperatures and raced through a hilly city to earn his new PR at the Baltimore Marathon. His new PR blew away the 4-hour mark and he is now the proud owner of a 3:58:53 PR.  Congrats and good luck in the NYC Marathon!    The racing Roegmans were at it again! Just a week after Chicago, Sandi ran another 26.2 mile victory lap while Rachel ran a solid race as well at the Hartford, CT Marathon. The lovely duo recommend the race as a future FRNY road trip!    Also, Paine is temporary, but pride is forever!  The Paine to Pain Trail Half Marathon is a giant single-loop trail race on the Colonial Greenway through five lower Westchester parks. All proceeds go to improvements to the trail and this volunteer-driven race has grown from only 50 runners in in 2008 to 700 this year. Jonathan Warner was the first Front Runner to cross the line, finishing in 1:29:29, 9th overall and 6th in his age group.  Steve Waldon posted a time of 1:32:28, 15th overall and 7th in his age group. Next up was Jeff Werner in 1:35:38 and Ryan Singer in 1:38:28. No stranger to trails, Jill Crouther covered the 13.1 in 2:14:11.    Great racing to all!  Don’t forget to cheer or volunteer at the NYC Marathon if you are not racing.  Good luck to those in their final weeks of taper.  Also, the Join the Voices! 5 miler is still open, so please sign up!

If you would like to use Harlem United as your bag drop on marathon Sunday, please email Rachel Cutler for details.   Also, all FRNY members in good standing, plus a guest, are invited to come to the Harlem United post-marathon party located at 2 West 64th Street (at the corner of Central Park West), just a couple of blocks from the marathon finish. There will be food, drinks, massages, and a photo booth. If you want to come, please email Leah Serinsky for the details and to RSVP.   Finally, Jonathan Warner is collecting corral information so that you can see who’s starting with you on race day.

Pancake Breakfast: 11/3/12 There is going to be a whole lot of flipping, slicing & dicing, setting up and tearing down the morning of Saturday, November 3, starting at 9 AM.  ...and we’re not referring to activities surrounding a national presidential debate. They’re activities in the lead up to the big coming together of the FRNY family at our Annual Pre-Marathon Day Pancake Breakfast. Come make new friends, see friends from the past, and help give back to the club by volunteering.There are a lot of "small tasks"  including front of house jobs -- setting up the room, greeting guests, serving food, and breaking down the space along with the jobs in the kitchen.    Email Mike McMahon and Dave Laurence to volunteer, and please be sure to also include a phone number where they can reach you. Pasta Dinner: 11/2/12 On Friday, November 2 Front Runners from NYC and all over the world will carb up together at Rutger’s Church on the 5th floor starting at 6:30 PM.

If you’re available, sign up to volunteer here.  Email Coordinators Gemma Sanz de la Serna or Matt Kovich with questions.  Armory Training Season A meeting for the indoor training season will be held on Tuesday, October 30, at 7 PM.  This will be held in the Harlem United office space at 290 Lenox Ave, Basement, across the street from the usual space. Dinner will be served.

With an innumerable number of runners, this event would not have been possible without the help of several wonderful volunteers from all three teams, all along the way. A special thank you goes out to our Front Runner crew as follows: Darin Soler for his mentorship, Paul Racine, Katrina Amaro, and Sean Gillick for their bike marshalling, and Cesar "Banana-Boy" Jesena, Bryce Rudyk, Tara Amato, Jeany Heller, Cristina Vaccaro, Rachel Cutler, and Dominic Davis, and Barley too, for their commitment to making sure these runners stayed hydrated and energized along the way.    Also found in New York City, Sam LaFata single-handedly represented Front Runners in the NYRR Kurt Steiner XC 5K up at Van Cortlandt. In a time of 35:26, Sam earned 5th in his AG AND a new PR for AG in 5K XC races!  Way to represent, Sam!   Leaving the city for a change of scenery, some Front Runners wandered to the far off city of Detroit. Dan Ferguson sped through the Detroit International Half-Marathon in a time of �1:23:04, not only securing a PR and 6th in his AG, but also snagging 30th overall! Phil Wahba finished Detroit Free Press Marathon in 3:52:45.      Off in the nation’s capital, Joel Fineman was an army of one. Taking a running tour around DC, Joel completed the Army 10 Miler in a time of 1:16:58.    Off in yet another state, four Front Runners were taking Massachusetts by storm. Spotted in the Baystate Marathon in Lowell, MA,  Daniel Guralnick and Tim Guscott completed the course in 3:42:35 and 3:20:47 respectively. Tim’s time opens up a spot for him in the 2014 Boston Marathon as well!  Great job guys!    In Lynn, Massachusetts, Miriam Weiskind spent one of her weekend mornings running the Stone Tower 15K Trail Race.  In a time of 1:20:08, she finished in 4th place overall for the women and 1st place in her AG!  Way to race!    In Boston, Michelle Nolan took part in the annual Head of the Charles Regatta. Her team competed in this, the world’s largest two day rowing competition with over 9,000 rowers, in a time of 19:55 earning them 25th in their division. Way to row!    For those of you still gearing up -- in just two more weekends, Front Runners will spend yet another Sunday exploring the five boroughs of New York City in the annual infamous New York City ING Marathon. Following that, there will only be one more club points race: the Join the Voices 5-Miler in Central Park on Sunday, December 2nd at 8:30 AM  Sign up now while spots are still available and represent FRNY!

Training Tip Another tip for marathoners: there are hundreds of reasons to slow down during a marathon. You only need one reason to keep on moving and to keep on pushing. Find that reason, whether it’s to run a personal best, in honor of someone, to raise money for a cause, or just to prove something to yourself. Figure out what it will be this year, and then remember that reason when you get tired and you need to motivate yourself.  Special reminder for those running the Chicago marathon this weekend: Be smart. Be strong.  Be cute.  Women’s Long Run Meeting Our second annual women’s long run meeting will be on Wednesday, October 10 at 7:30 PM at the home of Koach Kelsey Louie (1 Columbus Place, Apt.

After that, they cycled a 17K course, and topped the event off with a 5K run in Montauk, one of the birthplaces of triathlons. Daniel O’Neill, Philip Greenwald, and Jeff Grossman represented FRNY with solid performances at the MightyMan SprintTriathlon. The three guys had each other’s back throughout the event. Shaving 30 seconds off of his run pace in his second sprint triathlon, Daniel finished in 1:26:55.  Next, Philip Greenwaldearned 7th place age division for his time of 1:30:36 followed by Jeff Grossman who finished strong in 1:39:40.  Well done!      Back home in Van Cortlandt Park on Saturday morning, 34 Front Runners came out to play and race in the FRNY XC Meet.  After the 5K race, the fun continued with donuts, coffee, and prizes.  Congrats to all of our runners!  Special thanks to Gemma de la Serna for organizing the event.  Special mention to our top five finishers led by Josh Korth (17:39), John Grunnert (20:07), Natalie Johnson (21:06), Ryan Singer (21:30), and Leah Serinsky (21:32).  It’s great to have the two women speedsters back on track!      Taking back the night on Saturday, Beth Strickland competed in the Walt Disney WorldTwilight Zone Tower of Terror 10 Miler event in Orlando, Florida.  Given the intense heat and high humidity, Beth ran a smart race in 2:17:30.  Congrats and welcome back from your nighttime road race journey into the fifth dimension, Beth!   Back in Van Cortlandt Park on Sunday, Hilary Lorenz and Sam LaFata placed at the NYRR Henry Isola 4-Mile kick off to the cross country season. Hilary, in 29:27, took 2nd age place.  Sam secured 2nd age place (70-79) with his time in 45:11.  Good work!   Also on Sunday, Miles Harter had a come back race at the Narrows Half Marathon, one of the fastest, flattest USATF certified courses in Brooklyn.  Miles finished in 1:35:34 taking 2nd place in the 50-59 age group.  His age-graded performance of 73.84% marks a new PR for Miles.  A warm welcome back, Miles!   In upstate New York in the backwoods of a park with rolling hills, Richard White did back-to-back races on Sunday. The organizers of the 35th Annual Police Chase held a 5K at 11:15 AM, followed by a 10K at noon. In the 5K, Richard nailed first place in his age group (5th overall place) with a speedy time of 19:43.  Then he earned 4th in his age group (7th overall place) in the 10K with a time of 43:59.  Congrats, Richard!   Back-to-Back races have been working for Front Runner Tim Guscott. Why wait for next spring to get in a half ironman distance?  Apparently, once you’ve successfully �accomplished a full Ironman, every other race will seem significantly shorter and maybe even faster, too. Tim proved that this strategy works. On Sunday, he set a new personal record at the Poconos IM 70.3!  He took 9 minutes off his previous 70.3 event.  Going back to Montauk on Sunday, Rachel Cutler completed the MightyMan Olympic triathlon in 2:51:53 for her last triathlon of the season.  What a great way to finish!   Back home in Montauk, Dave Pitches dominated at the MightyMan Half IM distance on Sunday.  After the 1.2 mile swim, 56 miles on the bike, and the 13.1 half marathon, Dave finished in first place in his 65-69 age group with a time of 6:16:00.  Awesome!   AJ Stachelek never backs down from moving out of his comfort zone.  He attempted his first half IM at the MightyMan Half IM triathlon in Montauk on Sunday.  Unfortunately, his IT band ended his journey after 63.3 miles.  We’re sure that you’ll be back next year to conquer the half IM distance!         It was back to the Jersey Shore one more time for five Front Runners who competed in the 40th Jersey Shore Half Marathon and Lighthouse 5K event in the scenic Gateway National Park in Sandy Hook, NJ.  The day started off overcast with cool temperatures in the upper 50’s to 60 degrees. Then things started heating up with Tom Malcom finishing his 5K race in 22:27:26 (7:14 pace per mile), and Dave Lin who ran his 5K in 24:00:54.  In the half marathon, Andrew Crabb earned 7th division place and 12th overall place with his 6:04 pace for a finishing time of 1:19:20.  Bernie Janelle hit the timing mat in 2:00:10 to earn 9th place in her division followed by Cindy Hearing in 2:02:17.  Great racing, everyone!   Back in Berlin, Zander Ross ran 10 minutes faster than two weeks ago in Yonkers, for a 3:47:26 finish at the 39th Berlin Marathon.  He met with the Berlin Front Runners, and together with Richard Ervais, they were interviewed for a gay Norwegian publication.  If that’s not exciting enough, Zander will be back in NYC to race his 100th marathon on November 4.       There’s still time to register for the last two NYRR points races: Grete’s Great Gallop (October 14) and Join the Voices 5 Mile race on December 2.

We look forward to seeing you there if you are able to make it into the city! We will definitely miss those who cannot join us for this annual event due to transportation shut down and other damage caused by Hurricane Sandy. For 2012 NYC Marathoners If you would like to use Harlem United as your bag drop on marathon Sunday, please email Rachel Cutler for details. �  All FRNY members in good standing, plus a guest, are invited to come to the Harlem United post-marathon party located at 2 West 64th Street (at the corner of Central Park West), just a couple of blocks from the marathon finish.  Please email Leah Serinsky for the details and to RSVP.   Finally, Jonathan Warner is collecting corral information so that you can see who’s starting with you on race day. Submit your info here and see who’s near you.  Email Jonathan with questions. 24-Mile Water Station: 11/4 If you are not running, join in supporting FRNYers and all marathoners by volunteering at the Mile 24 Water Station. The fun starts at 7:30AM on Marathon Day, Sunday November 4 and goes all day long. We especially need help for shift 1 (7:30 AM - 11:30 AM) and shift 3 (2:30PM - 6:30 PM). Click here to sign up!   FRNY Water Captains Martha Dao and Marty Tracy want to staff an all-LGBT-Sport-Club water station this year. Email them with questions.

If you’re available, sign up to volunteer here.  Email Coordinators Gemma Sanz de la Serna or Matt Kovich with questions.  FRNY Gives Back We hope that you and your families are safe, sound and are returning back to as normal a routine as the city cleanup allows. For many communities throughout NYC whose homes were hardest hit, getting back to normal will take some time. FRNY is collecting non-perishable items during our marathon events: Pasta Dinner and Pancake Breakfast. There will be a collection box at Rutgers, please give what you can. We will be donating to the Food Bank of NYC. Email Sandi Roegman for more info. Marathon Spectator Tips From our coaches: the marathon can be as exciting for your entourage of cheerleaders as it is for you, the runner.  Below are a few tips to make the best of race day! Let each other know what you’ll be wearing so that you can easily identify each other.Determine in advance where on the course you plan to meet, including which side of the course you’ll meet as well as your expected arrival time.Have your entourage carry water, gels, or whatever you think you’d like at that point in the course.Before traveling to the cheer zone, make sure that everyone checks the MTA website.  At this time, no one is sure which trains will be operating on Sunday.  Here are some relatively uncrowded places for them to consider meeting you:Brooklyn:  Fourth Avenue, just south of Atlantic Avenue, is a great place to be that’s not overly crowded.  Note that the course is still divided at this point, so be sure that your cheer squad knows which side of 4th Ave you’ll be on.  Take the 2/3/4/D/Q/R trains to Atlantic Avenue/Barclays Center (handicap accessible) and use the 4th Ave exit (the one nearest the D/R platforms).  Another option is to take the F/G trains to 4th Ave.Queens:  Anywhere in Long Island City is a great place to cheer!  Take the 7/Q trains to Queensboro Plaza, the E/R trains to Queens Plaza (handicap accessible), or the F train to Queensbridge.Manhattan:  The course is particularly crowded along 1st Ave in Manhattan.  Your entourage will be easier to spot north of 96th Street.  Take a 6 train anywhere from 96th St to 125th St and walk east to 1st Ave.  The 125th St station is handicap accessible.Bronx:  The Bronx is another great place to easily meet up with your friends and family.  Take the 6 train to 3rd Ave/138th St or the 4 to 138th St/Grand ConcourseManhattan (Part 2):  Anywhere on the east side of 5th Ave is good.  Make sure everyone knows that the course enters the park at 90th St. Armory Training Season A meeting for the indoor training season will be held on Monday, November 5, at 7 PM.  This will be held in the Harlem United office space at 290 Lenox Ave, Basement, across the street from the usual space. Dinner will be served. Learn about the indoor training season and how this training will benefit all abilities and goals.  Please RSVP to Michael Klein as soon as possible to ensure that we have enough food for dinner.  Brooklyn-Meets-Manhattan Fun Run: 11/13/12 Come join our Brooklyn contingent on Tuesday, November 13 for a fun run that touches both boroughs.  We’ll run across the Brooklyn Bridge to lower Manhattan and then back across the Manhattan Bridge to DUMBO. We’re making a special push that night to have as many Manhattanites as possible, and there will be a bag drop provided by Michael Klein, who will have his car on site. Meet at 7 PM by the entrance to the Brooklyn Promenade (at the corner of Columbia Heights and Orange Street - take the 2/3 to Clark Street, the 4/5 to Borough Hall, the A/C to High Street, or the R to Court Street). The run will begin at 7:15 PM.  Dinner afterwards will happen at Rebar (147 Front Street) in DUMBO at around 8 PM.  �Contact Brendan Moroney with any questions. Hope to see you there! PHP Skills Needed FRNY is creating a race archive database and we need someone who can write PHP script to generate pages / results much like the NYRR Race Results page.

Tee, and Brian Gustaveson represented at the NYC Urbanathlon.  The Men’s Health Urbanathlon is a three-city event series comprised of 9.5 to 11 mile endurance races that incorporate city landmarks and urban obstacle courses, one of which includes NYC. With just one week before the NYC Marathon, they decided to take on 9.5 miles with 11 obstacles of this course.  A SHOUT OUT for Brian who had a PR time in 1:11:16 (7:31 pace, 10th place overall in the �stair climb and 33rd place in the competitive heat).  Good work, FRNY men!        Nothing stops Richard White, the master of the 5K race, not even a hilly trail course with teenagers dressed as zombies.  Richard took the competition by storm to earn 1st in his age group at the UlsterServiceCorps Sprint in Rosendale, NY.  Richard also secured 8th place overall for his time in 23:51.  Congrats, Richard!   Sam LaFata also stormed by his competition at the Hoboken Halloween 5K race. Sam had a PR for his time in 30:31.  He took 1st place in his Age Group (only the 2nd time ever at a 60.09 AG%).  Run, Sam, Run!     Giordano Fusco, well ahead of the storm on Saturday, ran the Richmond Rockets Halloween Costume 5K race (27:00) on Saturday.  He took 3rd place in his Age Group, but did not win the costume contest.     Front Runners were still talking up a storm on Sunday. Despite some dark clouds and swirling leaves, 10 women and 41 men came out to run the traditional NYRR Poland Spring Marathon Kickoff five-mile race in Central Park.   Natalie Johnston stormed ahead to lead the women at the NYRR Poland Spring Marathon Kickoff race, and also served as a pacer, with a finishing time in 38:40. Elke Gasselseder, using this as just a warm-up race before next weekend, held back for her overall time in 39:50 followed by Diane Lowy who placed third in 40:13. Bernie Janelle, earned 9th in her Age Group with her time in 41:14.  Rounding out our top five, Yaryna Wynar finished in 42:23.  Congrats also go out to all of our finishers for their hard work and team representation: Sophia Psaroudakis, Katrina Amarao, Diane Westerback, Sierra Jorgensen, and Stacey Cooper.   Tony Majewski stormed ahead to lead the men at the NYRR Poland Spring Marathon Kickoff race with a 6:21 pace per mile for a new PR time in 31:41.  Onesimo De Mira ran a strong race in 33:19 followed by Ben Corbett in 33:30.  Peter Lozito held fourth place for the men in 34:22 with David Calfee on his heels in 34:28.  In addition to our top five, Miles Harter earned 6th in his Age Group for his time in 35:16 and Sam Lafata nailed 7th place in his Age Group for his time in 52:35.     Tony was interviewed at the end of the race: "Having this race gets the week started off right," said Majewski. "We’re off and running!"  Congrats to our 34 additional men who represented FRNY.    Special thanks to Koach Kelsey for pushing everyone at the very end of the course for a strong finish.       For the complete Poland Spring race results, go to www.nyrr.org.  While you’re there, register for Join the Voices 5 mile points race on December 2.   The stormy weather conditions did not prevent our Front Runners from traveling to DC for the 37th Marine Corps Marathon on Sunday. Michelle Johnson finished strong in 4:18:20. Dennis Ng completed the course in 4:07:56. Manja Srinivasaiah ran the 26.2 miles in 3:32:43 as a last long training run before NYC. Way to represent!   Check it out! The FRNY spreadsheets have been updated. If you don’t see something, SAY something.          Gram Submission Guidelines   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.

Box 230087 New York, New York 10023 membership@frny.org   Statement from the President on Elections To the extent possible without compromising individuals’ privacy, I would like to respond to the rumors that have to do with the ongoing election that have been going around the club. On the day before and the eve of FRNY voter eligibility cut-off (October 30 and 31), a large number of new members joined FRNY online, and there were irregularities 43 of those registrations. These irregularities led to an email written by Dave Lin in which he stated that "a member of Team Harlem United and about 55 of his associates signed up to be members of FRNY" in order "to ensure that I do not become president and that the person running against me, who works for Harlem United, does." This and other  accusations are based on rumors and partial information. Dave Lin directed his email to his friends, not to the board or the election officers, so an official investigation did not occur before incomplete and inaccurate information was disseminated to a number of members. This sparked more rumors and created a firestorm of accusations and negativity that have been damaging to the club. Members are given the option to opt out of the membership directory, and many do every year. These members do so with the expectation of privacy, and as an LGBT organization, we are remiss in our duty if we do not protect our members’ privacy, especially for those who have requested additional privacy protections.    Therefore, there is a great deal of information and evidence that I cannot share publicly. As an LGBT organization we have a responsibility to provide a safe space for all members, even those who are not out. I knew in advance that a group that calls themselves SWAG Together was joining FRNY because I was approached by the the leader of the group on October 25 by email. They expressed an interest in learning to run that was sparked by the 2011 beginners clinic. I replied to his email, encouraging them to join us at a fun run. I communicated with them about the logistics of joining as members, answering their questions, and explaining the club’s primary mode of communications with its members is the weekly Gram and our Facebook page. And I told them that our community was warm, welcoming, and eager to share our collective knowledge of and joy for running.     I can personally assure you that, after having spoken with the heads of AIDS Service Center NYC and Harlem United, that this group joining us was not supported by either organization. I owe a public apology to ASCNYC because although I had believed--and, indeed, was pleased to think--that these members came to FRNY as part of our long partnership, I was wrong. ASCNYC disavows having supported this group. I have spoken with Sharen Duke, CEO of ASCNYC and a Front Runner member about why I had thought they were from ASCNYC and offered my apologies to her, as well, which she graciously accepted. I reiterated my apologies at the board meeting on November 8. To address the concerns raised by our members at the board meeting about the irregular applications on Thursday, November 8, we came up with a process--along with the Membership Committee �head and the Elections Officers--to verify everyone’s eligibility to vote. To protect the private information of these individuals we will not release details about their registration, but I can tell you that 100% of the Board and these committee members have agreed that this process is sound. All members who are eligible to vote have been verified and were emailed a ballot on Sunday. Individuals who are ineligible to vote did not receive a ballot. For this group of irregular applications, each individual membership will date from the day membership is confirmed, not from October 31, and none is eligible to vote in this year’s election according to our bylaws. I am happy to answer questions about our election process, and I would like to be as transparent as possible while still respecting the privacy of our members. On final note, the calumnies and threats directed to the board and the individuals that comprise the board are extremely unpleasant, and not in line with the community I thought FRNY to be. At the same time, I have been impressed with the dignity and integrity of most of the club’s leadership throughout this difficult time. I thank those people for their time, thoughtfulness, and courage. Sincerely, Megan Coryat Election Officers’ Report The election officers feel that it’s important for the club’s membership to understand the precautions in place for the ongoing elections. We are relying on the procedural safeguards established by ElectionBuddy, the system we opted to use. They have a "voter questions" FAQ available on their website.  Ballots were e-mailed to the eligible membership on Sunday, November 11. Please be sure to check your inboxes. If you believe that you should havereceived a ballot and haven’t, email us as soon as possible so that we have ample time to resolve any problems before the voting closes.    Candidate statements are posted on the FRNY website.     The remaining election schedule (including deadlines) is as follows:   November 30: Online voting closes December 1: Voting by paper ballots after the fun run; winners announced  Maybe Everyone Needs a Little THERAPY: 11/15/12 FRNY is cohosting another mixer with TNYA this coming Friday, November 16th, at Therapy, located at 348 West 52nd Street, between 8th and 9th Avenues.  The fun and excitement start at 6:30 PM and most likely continue to 10:00 PM.  All is welcome to stop by for a drink or two or several to MINGLE with fab people, to GOSSIP and to CREATE rumors.  Happy hour specials are until 8:00 PM.

Many thanks to Matt Kovich for organizing the FRNY pasta dinner in Harrisburg the night before the race.      This weekend in Michigan Sam LaFata represented FRNY at two 10K races back-to-back.  At the Hightail it for Heros 10K Sam completed the course in 1:06:08 placing first in age!

Box 230087 New York, New York 10023 membership@frny.org   Election Update:  Audit Committee  From Megan Coryat   As many of you are aware, and I have outlined in numerous recent club communications (both written and oral), there have been very serious questions raised surrounding this year’s elections. The nature, gravity and specific details of these allegations have been varied, and I have tried -- through the FRNY board and the club’s election officers -- to address these questions and concerns to the best and fullest of my abilities. Some may argue that my explanations have not provided clarity to the situation; that has never been my intent and I apologize in advance, as the President of this great club, for any ill feelings that my words may have caused.Given the continued concern, the I realize that my prior efforts were not sufficient, and that a significant number of members still want -- and deserve to have -- their questions addressed through the review and investigation of an independent audit committee. I have asked Jason Rudman, and he has agreed to volunteer to head this committee. I believe Jason is the right person to help at this time for a number of reasons: He has been a member-in-good-standing of the club since 2006;  he has held various leadership positions outside the club, including currently serving on the board of The Ali Forney Center and holding an executive position at American Express, which includes compliance and audit responsibilities; and  he has had sufficient distance from the current situation and any politics to be a fair and impartial arbiter of the evidence surrounding all allegations of potential fraud stemming from the current elections. Jason is also seeking two additional FR members to serve on the audit committee to retain the impartiality of the outcome and will be reaching out to a couple of people he has identified since I spoke to him earlier this morning. Again, the goal here is to �develop an impartial approach and if any member has suggestions for the two (2) additional committee members, please email Jason directly at jason.rudman@gmail.com, marking the email ’PRIVILEGED & CONFIDENTIAL’. And, should this committee find a need for an external audit, they will also oversee the details of making those arrangements.  For now, the election officers and board continue to plan on holding the elections on December 1, barring any word from the audit committee that working around that date is no longer possible. I want to reconfirm that the questionable registrations have been suspended until confirmed, and regardless of confirmation, this group is not eligible to vote. The audit committee will also review and potentially recommend changes to the elections process to prevent any perceived or actual impropriety going forward. Our club will continue to be at the service of its members, which is why the Board has decided that it is in the best interest of the membership to move this discussion away from the board and the elections officers and into the hands of an independent audit committee. Over the next two weeks, I encourage any members to direct any evidence they have through this committee. I would like to also take this opportunity to underscore that www.frny.org is still the official channel for club communications. The goal with this decision is to unearth the truth and to be transparent to the entire membership. Finally, I recognize the highly charged and clearly polarizing views surrounding the issue at hand, but I would ask that everyone try to take a moment to reflect on what first brought them to the club, or to remember the first time that they really felt like they belonged to something great that they wanted to be a part of and to grow. I know it is tough to have perspective when temperatures are running high, but I still believe that so much more brings us together than pulls us apart. A friend reminded me last week that two years ago, this month, our club, through the efforts of Men’s VP and past Front Runner of the Year Dave Lin, broadcasted its own "It Gets Better" video. I told my story in that video as did many of our teammates, and I think it was a high point for FRNY. Let’s try to remember now, and in the coming weeks, that we are much stronger, healthier and happier when we are united behind our common purpose of bringing running to the LGBT community. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Box 230087 New York, New York 10023 membership@frny.org   Fun Run is on Tonight This week’s Gram is early because of the holiday tomorrow.  Rutgers is open and there is a fun run tonight, Wednesday, November 21.   Happy Thanksgiving! Statement from the Head of the Audit Committee By Jason Rudman   I wanted to take time to follow up on a few questions that have been asked following Monday’s announcement that I will lead an internal audit committee to look into alleged impropriety in the elections process.     I wanted to state a few things clearly for the entire membership, for those who know me and for those who don’t:   I agreed to do this because I love the club, what it stands for, all that it has achieved and, most important, because believe I can be an impartial internal voice; I ask you to take me at my wordI believe that the hallmark of a democratic process is trust, integrity and transparency into its processes and decision-making; I ask you to have faith that is where the committee will focus its effortsThe committee is charged �with a few things simultaneously; namely to determine if we need a third-party audit OR an internal audit OR both.  "Both" is key here...it should not be implied that we will keep this "in-house". The committee has been empowered by Megan, as the President and as dictated by the bylaws as they currently stand, to conduct this audit. This means that elected officers of the club will release confidential information for our research at our request for review. We will also ask questions of key players in the process. Again, the committee is empowered to make the determination of which option to choose and, should we choose a third-party audit as an option, the committee will also manage the bidding and findings process.  As members in good standing, we are also open to opine on any changes to procedures and by-laws that we determine could prevent future issues arising as it the right of any FRNY member. To address a few questions asked about the selection of the committee, I am seeking input from a variety of sources. Independently, and without influence from Megan, other Board members or any other members-at-large, I have reached out to a number of individuals that I believe will abide by the same principles that I invoke in my current Board duties at the Ali Forney Center and as a senior leader at American Express fairness, objectivity, a fact-based approach. At this stage, based on my initial assessment, there will likely be 5 people in total on the committee and I hope to announce the members as soon as next Monday, November 26, holiday plans notwithstanding. From there, one of our first orders of business, as Megan mentioned on Monday, is to determine any impact the alleged impropriety has on announcing election results on December 1, so you will appreciate we have to move fast and will attempt a consensus opinion. As many who have called and emailed me with questions have stated, this comes down to "I have faith...and the proof is in the pudding", so to speak -- I ask only that you allow the committee to work on behalf of the entire club. I certainly have no preconceived notions of where this will lead and vow to lead the committee to do the best thing for the club and its individual members.If you have any questions or comments, please contact me at jason.rudman@gmail.com.Best,Jason   Election Officers’ Report There has been a great deal of discussion within the club regarding multiple membership applications that were filed on October 31. The club’s membership officer has determined that these applications were not completed before the deadline for eligibility to vote in this election cycle. Therefore, these potential new members will not be participating in the ongoing election.  The election officers feel that it’s important for the club’s membership to understand the precautions in place for the balloting. We are relying on the procedural safeguards established by ElectionBuddy, the system we opted to use. They have a "voter questions" FAQ available on their website.  We have decided to break with club tradition this year. Instead of announcing only who won, we will also be announcing the number of ballots cast in total and the percentage results for each of the contested race and the referendum question.  Ballots were e-mailed to the eligible membership on Sunday, November 11. Reminders will be sent from ElectionBuddy on Friday, November 23, to all those who haven’t yet voted. Please be sure to check your inboxes. If you believe that you should have received a ballot and haven’t, let us know as soon as possible so that we have ample time to resolve any problems before the voting closes. We are available at elections@frny.org.   The remaining election schedule (including deadlines) is as follows: November 30: Online voting closes December 1: Voting by paper ballots after the fun run; winners announced pending the recommendation of the Audit Committee Awards Night Nominations Please consider nominating your teammates for FRNY’s 2012 awards, using this online form.

Please note the new award that will be awarded for the first time this year, Ultra Runner of the Year.    Nominations must be received by November 30. The final voting for all awards is made by the 2012 board in a private session after the rest of club business is discussed at the December 9 board meeting.   Awards will be present at the 11th Annual FRNY Awards night on February 2, 2013.

In a time of 3:43:21, Hilary Lorenz secured a 7 minute PR in this loopy race that consisted of several rounds of the short 3.4 mile route.  Also getting dizzy were Marcus Woollen (3:41:29), in his first marathon in a decade and a PR, and Brian Schroeder (3:14:22), in his first marathon ever!  Perhaps helping with the counting or, at the very, least providing good cheer were Andrew Cunningham, Dave Swinarski, and Jeremy Reiss.    In the NYRR Race to Deliver 4-Miler, deliver they did!  A total of 14 women and 25 men from Front Runners competed in this central loop of Central Park.    For the top five women, we had Elke Gasselseder (31:22), Yaryna Wynar (32:19), Karin Lundell (34:35 - 10th AG!), Caitlin Clancy (35:04), and Susan Ryan (36:17).  On the women’s honor roll, we had Stacey Cooper (43:48 - PR!) and Florence Hogan (37:17 - PR of 4 minutes from last year and AG PR).  Way to go!  For the top five men, we had Onesimo De Mira (24:38 - 8th AG!), Joseph Baker (26:20), Jonathan Arnold (26:21), Anthony Forte (27:52), and Bernd Erpenbeck (28:38).  On the men’s honor roll, we have Sam LaFata (40:39 - 10th AG!).  Great job delivering those times!!   Last but not least, going buck wild in the Bucks County Marathon, two Front Runners represented.  For the women, Barbara Finnegan came in at 3:16:17, securing 1st place in her AG, 4th place women overall, and 34th overall!  For the men, Gabe Benroth ran the course in a time of 3:12:39, securing 6th place in his AG and a 26th place overall finish!    What amazing performances this weekend from all of you!  Don’t forget that Join the Voices is coming up December 2 and is the last points race of the season - see you out there!

The final voting for all awards is made by the 2012 board in a private session after the rest of club business is discussed at the December 9 board meeting.   Awards will be present at the 11th Annual FRNY Awards night on February 2, 2013. Details forthcoming. Statement from the Head of the Audit Committee From Jason Rudman on behalf of the Audit Committee [this same message was sent in a separate Gram on Monday, November 26]   FRNY Members:   I hope you had a great Thanksgiving. I am updatingyou on the Audit Committee and confirming, as announced after the Fun Run on Saturday, the following members, in alphabetical order, will be joining me to review the election procedures and FRNY bylaws to ensure an impartial and fair election:   Lenore Beaky Dave Caraway Patrick Guilfoyle Hilary Lorenz   We met on Sunday as a group and by a unanimous decision [5-0], we are recommending to the Election Officers that the results of the election NOT be announced as planned this coming Saturday. Instead, we have asked the Election Officers to hold the results until December 15 to allow the committee enough time to determine an outcome of the audit.   On December 15, the committee will present its findings at announcements after the Fun Run and, if it is determined that the election was fair, the election results will be read. This delay should not be interpreted by the running body as anything other than the committee needing more time to talk to key players and audit the timeline of events.   Further, this delay does not stop the election process: all eligible members can voteelectronically through November 30 and any member wishing to cast a paper ballot should continue to so as planned at the December 1 meeting. The audit committee has also requested that all paper ballots will be counted at the meeting, with the audit committee present, to ensure transparency.   Most, if not all, of the audit committee will be available to address any questions during the December 1 post-Fun Run annual meeting. In the meantime, any questions, comments and suggestions can be directed to the entire committee at audit@frny.org or to me directly at jason.rudman@gmail.com.   Thanks, Jason Rudman, on behalf of the FRNY Audit Committee Election Officers’ Report There has been a great deal of discussion within the club regarding multiple membership applications that were filed on October 31. The club’s membership officer has determined that these applications were not completed before the deadline for eligibility to vote in this election cycle. Therefore, these potential new members will not be participating in the ongoing election.  The election officers feel that it’s important for the club’s membership to understand the precautions in place for the balloting. We are relying on the procedural safeguards established by ElectionBuddy, the system we opted to use. They have a "voter questions" FAQ available on their website.  We have decided to break with club tradition this year. Instead of announcing only who won, we will also be announcing the number of ballots cast in total and the percentage results for each of the contested race and the referendum question.  Ballots were e-mailed to the eligible membership on Sunday, November 11. Please be sure to check your inboxes. If you believe that you should have received a ballot and haven’t, let us know as soon as possible so that we have ample time to resolve any problems before the voting closes. We are available at elections@frny.org.   The remaining election schedule (including deadlines) is as follows: November 30: Online �voting closes December 1: Voting by paper ballots after the fun run Armory Training Season There is no workout on Thanksgiving. Workouts are at 8 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays all season at the New Balance Armory on 168th St (take the A/C or 1 to 168th St). If you wish to continue to receive weekly track workout emails, please fill out this brief survey.    If you wish to sign up as a volunteer timer this season, click here. Training Tip As you begin to add speed work to your workout regimen, keep in mind that you should only increase volume or intensity, not both. So, if you are new to speed work, or if you haven’t done this type of intense work in a while, keep your weekly mileage the same, or even decrease it. Increasing both intensity and volume too much can potentially lead to injuries.   Multisport Swimming Sign Up Due to limited space at the Vanderbilt Y pool, we have implemented a sign-up system for Friday swim practices for the time being.  Please see the Monday multisport gram for access to the sign-up or email us. TNYA’s One-Hour Swim Dates have been set for the 2013 One Hour Swim: January 13 at Columbia and January 26 at John Jay College.  We will let you know when registration goes live. You must be a member of USMS to participate.  See the calendar at frny.org for details on our regular swimming and cycling workouts. Email Mike and Rachel to be added to the weekly multisport email list.

While everyone was trying to regain a sense of normalcy, we heard the news that the ING New York City Marathon was cancelled as well. Amidst disappointment �about the race and devastation by the after-effects of the storm, FRNY continued to show resilience, service, and strength as always.Congratulations are in order for all entrants of this year’s ING New York City Marathon. We have no doubt that many of you will toe to the line again in 2013. We weren’t able to find a comprehensive list of all the Front Runners who were ready to run, but we include here the names of many who had planned to do NYC 2012: Dennis Bodden, Damian Hartner, Jonathan Warner, Jeremy Reiss, Adam Salmons, Matt Kovich, Michael Cavaliere, Joe Baker, Matt Pych, Robert Dally, Tsing Cheng, Jean Simeon, Giordano Fusco, Daniel O’Neil, Rochelle Schulsinger, Florence Hogan, Eric Hornbeck, Brendan McLellan, Brian Schroeder, Alexander Bush, Jonathan Jeremias, Peter Macari, Da Ping Luo, Richard White, Hilary Lorenz, Ned Russell, Elke Gasselseder, Cindy Hearing, Bernie Janelle, Jason Hoberman, Ken Harmon, Maritza Arroyo, Lourdes Blanco, Michael Klein, Josh Korth, Barbara Finnegan, Cenk Bulbul, Miles Harter, Ryan Connors, Robb Hecht, Fred Pfaff, Alicia Bowman, Jim Keane, Kerri Fox, Joshua O’Sullivan, Will Janensch, Giovanny Leon, Jerry McDonnell, Blossom Coryat, Kelsey Louie, Jim McCarrick, Dave Lin, Zander Ross, Rich Ervais, Kevin Masse, Michael Grubb, Gemma Sanz de la Serna, Darin Soler, Zachary Johnson, Daniel Bersohn, Alex Kristofcak, Peter Lozito, Ramon Frisneda, Luke Lombardo, and the list goes on! Our apologies if we inadvertently missed you! Even in the absence of the race and the 24-mile water station, the team rallied in support at the Pasta Dinner and Pancake Breakfast. It was here and elsewhere that some discussed their plans to volunteer in Staten Island, run in Central Park, or run in their local neighborhood in an attempt to aid in Hurricane relief. It is amazing what the running community can do when it comes together after a tragic event like this.Aynsley Kirshenbaum, AJ Stachelek, and Rachel Cutler did a 10K race on Sunday through Red Hook called the Run for Red Hook. The race was put on by South Brooklyn running club and raised almost $7,000 for Red Hook relief.Front Runners Michael Sanderson and Chris Fisher both crossed the finish line in first place at the Sandy Relief Marathon in Lebanon, New Jersey. Their winning time was a 2:57! This speedy and remarkable duo decided to run the race that was organized in just a couple days to raise money for the relief efforts. This is just wonderful, men!The great thing about racing and the running community is that there will always be another race! Jonathan Warner has done a stellar job of compiling other marathons for our club. It looks like we will shortly see magnificent results from the other "NYC" Marathon that is being held in Harrisburg this weekend or other races and places around the globe. We cannot wait to see how fast you all run!Race reporting is not only for timed events. Sometimes, it means finding a solution to a problem. Other times, it may be helping each other out. We run for our health, we run to have fun, and we run to be part of a fabulous community! Let’s keep the momentum up through the rest of 2012 and may the weeks ahead continue to show the true spirit of FRNY!  Gram Submission Guidelines   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.

Box 230087 New York, New York 10023 membership@frny.org   Statement from the Audit Committee From Jason Rudman on behalf of the Audit Committee [this same message was sent in a separate Gram on Wednesday, December 12]   FRNY Members:   Following a nearly four-week period reviewing FRNY bylaws, policies, the electronic voting system and the elections process, both leading up to and during the election period, as well as interviewing a number of key people for information and comments and soliciting and examining pertinent emails and meeting minutes for their accounts of internal processes and opinions, the Audit Committee unanimously recommends that the 2013 Board Elections be set aside, the results of the previous vote discarded and that a new vote occur to determine the 2013 FRNY Board. In the PDF document, linked here, we discuss our findings in detail. All findings and recommendations expressed in the report are unanimously endorsed by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee will be on hand at the General Membership Meeting after the fun run this Saturday, December 15 to address any questions the membership may have. And, if preferred, members can address their questions to us at audit@frny.org.    Jason Rudman, ChairLenore BeakyDave CarawayPatrick GuilfoyleHilary Lorenz Call for Election Officers If you are interested in serving as an Election Officer for the 2013 election, as outlined by the audit committee, please email the 2012 board by Sunday evening, December 16 at 7 PM. Please include a brief statement of interest in your email and use the subject line ELECTION OFFICERS 2013. Bageling  There are only two weekends available for bageling left in 2012.  Please email Megan Coryat if you would like one of those spots. No experience is necessary--we provide instructions and the support of a different board member every Saturday.

Join us to celebrate these successes with a year-end dinner after the Fun Run on Tuesday, December 18 at Cubana Caf? (80 6th Ave on the corner of Flatbush Ave in Park Slope).  The Fun Run begins at 7:15 PM in Prospect Park (meet at the corner of 3rd St. and Prospect Park West at 7 PM).  We’ll meet for dinner at 8 PM.

Use workouts to help you break old, bad habits. For example, it you tend to start too fast in your workouts, practice going out at a more manageable pace during your workouts.  If you tend to lose focus in the middle of your races, pay particular attention to that phase of your �workout. Remember, it’s not just practice that makes perfect, but perfect practice that makes perfect!   Multisport Swimming Sign Up Due to limited space at the Vanderbilt Y pool, we have implemented a sign-up system for Friday swim practices for the time being.  Please see the Monday multisport gram for access to the sign-up or email us.

From having an ultra good time on the trails to doing a 15K around Central Park, Front Runners broke new ground in distances and PRs all on Saturday, December 15!In the NYRR Ted Corbitt Classic 15K, the top 5 Front Runner men to place for our team were J. Daniel Ferguson (58:18), Salem Almaani (58:40 - 6th AG!), Steven Wengrovitz (59:27), Anthony Majewski (1:02:37), and Peter Macari (1:02:50).  On the honor roll for the men are also Matt Pych (1:07:05) with almost a 3-minute PR and Daniel O’Neil (1:14:45) with a PR as well!  Also, lost to the record, but not lost in the race, Damian Hartner competed as well, finishing in a time of 1:04:07.For the women, the top 5 Front Runner finishers were Barbara Finnegan (1:06:02 - 10th AG!), Rachel Roegman (1:12:38), Diane Lowy (1:14:31), Blossom Coryat (1:20:26), and Karin Lundell (1:26:24).  In the honor roll for the women, Florence Hogan (1:33:09) obtained a 5-minute PR, Blossom Coryat (1:20:26) secured a PR from 7 years ago!, Stacey Cooper (1:51:53) also earned herself a PR of 4 minutes!, and Diane Lowy (1:14:31) raced this as her first 15K!Happy trails to you... until we meet again - in this 2nd race of the NJ Trail Winter Race Series. Hitting the 5K version of the trail race this time were Elke Gasselseder (27:23), Yaryna Wynar (29:06), and Amy Adams (40:29).  Taking on double the pleasure and double the fun in the 10K was Jill Crouther (1:08:13).  Way to race women!Lookout Front Runners New York - this next race was reserved for runners who also wanted to hit the trails and scale tall mountains in a single bound... and up, up, and away they went! Attacking the Lookout Mountain 50 Mile Trail Race were 8 Front Runners, with a small cheering squad of Ryan Singer and the members of the Warner family, to push them up and over those boundaries.  First for FRNY was Steven Waldon (8:35:27 - PR and 13th overall!), followed by Jonathan Warner (9:11:34 - and his dad (9:50:01)!), Manja Srinivasaiah (12:04:53), in triplicate - Darin Soler (12:41:09), Daniel Guralnick (12:41:10), and David Lin (12:41:16), and Anthony Ng and Sandi Roegman who completed 70K of the course (who can’t wait to run the next ultra!).  Steven Waldon says that he "had a great time with other FRNYers" and was "very happy" with his placement and PR.  Sandi Roegman shared that "it was a tough race that left me elated and lifted beyond my imagination and I can’t wait to run my next ultra!"  Great job all of you!It is sad to report that there are no longer any points races for this year, and next year’s points races have yet to be announced. Please keep the race reports coming in so that we can recognize your great achievements for the rest of this year in whatever races you participate in near and far!! Also, please be sure to alert us if you think there is a mistake on the spreadsheets tracking your progress and you believe you are eligible for an award in either the Participation category or the Athletic Achievement category.  Please note that to win the Athletic Achievement Award for your age group, you MUST have (or still can) volunteer at least one time to be eligible!  Contact us if you need assistance in arranging this volunteer credit - we have ample opportunities �available still!    Spreadsheets: Athletic AchievementParticipation Award  Gram Submission Guidelines   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 5 PM on Tuesday will be included in Thursday’s Gram.  To submit for consideration an activity, event, or announcement,  email Megan Coryat.

Box 230087 New York, New York 10023 membership@frny.org   Statements of 12/19/12 On December 19, 2012 three statements were issued: one by the audit committee chair; one by the board president; and one by Kelsey Louie. The content of those statements is here. From the Election Officers The reason we are having a new election is that it was the recommendation of the Audit Committee to do so �and a quorum agreed on Saturday, December 15. The membership also voted in favor of the timeline set forth by the Audit Committee. Members in good standing on the day that the original election opened will be eligible to vote. Those who joined after will not receive a ballot. The current board was asked to stay in place until the new election is completed (and subsequently accepted). After deliberations, the Election Committee provided additional time for nominations but otherwise left the dates as recommended.Full minutes of the membership meeting can be read here. As this is a new election, we are starting with a clean slate so all Board positions are open. The club is seeking individuals who are excited about leading the world’s largest LGBT Running Club in 2013. Please nominate yourself or someone you admire who has given his or her approval to do so in accordance with the below timeline. Candidate statements (which must be no longer than 400 words) should be submitted along with a photo to Election Officers.As always, voting will be for each of the board’s seven positions: President, Women’s Vice President, Men’s Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary, and two Directors at Large. Descriptions of each position’s responsibilities can be found in the Front Runners New York by-laws.If you would like to request a paper ballot, please contact the Election Officers as soon as possible. Paper ballots will also be available on January 5 after the Fun Run.We look forward to hearing from you.

Box 230087 New York, New York 10023 membership@frny.org   Statement from the Head of the Audit Committee From Jason Rudman on behalf of the Audit Committee [this same message was sent in a separate Gram on Monday, December 3]   FRNY Members:  Thanks for your questions at Saturday’s announcements -- the Audit Committee gave some additional thought based on them and has determined that we will provide our full report to the membership in PDF format via a special Front Runner gram no later than 11 AM EST, Thursday, December 13. This will give members at least 48 hours to read and consider the report and recommendations prior to discussion at the annual membership meeting after the fun run on Saturday, December 15.From a procedural point of view and to follow up on a questions asked of the committee on Saturday, the following has been determined in relation to the election itself:   a. if the Audit Committee finds that the election process was fair, the election results will be read on December 15th by the Election Officers, or  b. if the Committee finds that the election was not fair and a re-vote is necessary, then the election results will not be read and the Election Officers will be asked to never reveal the results of the vote, andc.  if the second finding is determined, the Audit Committee will provide a suggested process and timetable for the re-vote in our report for the membership to discussThe Committee is extremely grateful for the �cooperation and support the Club has afforded us as we work to a resolution of the issues before us.Your feedback is welcome.  Jason Rudman, ChairLenore BeakyDave CarawayPatrick GuilfoyleHilary Lorenz Bageling  We are in need of bagelers for this weekend.

Social Committee says: Save the Date, 12/20/12 Front Runner Friday will return next year, but save the date for the last social of 2012 which will be on Thursday, December 20. Location TBA.   2013 Membership Renewals The Membership Team is working on getting ready for 2013 renewals and will be ready later this month.    Training Tip It is easier to remember to hydrate during the warmer months, but keep in mind that it is equally important to remain hydrated even in cold weather. It is harder to do because water fountains don’t work.  Be sure to drink before you go out for a run and right afterwards.  For those of you in the Armory, you have probably already learned that it’s important to bring a bottle of water with for the rest periods in between intervals--keep doing so.   Multisport Swimming Sign Up Due to limited space at the Vanderbilt Y pool, we have implemented a sign-up system for Friday swim practices for the time being.  Please see the Monday multisport gram for access to the sign-up or email us.

Email Darin and Bernie with any questions.  Training Tip   Rest is an important component of everybody’s workout regimen.Often times, less is more.Resting will not only allow your muscles to recover, but it will also allow to you sustain your motivation to run, train, and race! For marathoners, it is important to not do too much too soon so you can peak on race day.  For shorter distance runners, this will help you get to race day with an extra spring in your step.This may make the difference between a PR and not a PR.   Social: Rubin Museum of Art   The Social Committee is pleased to invite you to the hip and chic K2 Lounge at the Rubin Museum of Art (150 West 17th Street, between 6th and 7th Avenues) in the heart of Chelsea for a night of fine cultural experience on Friday, February 24.  Admission is FREE starting at 6 PM, and there is a live DJ.

Race ReportHow do runners react when weather forecasts predict bitter temperatures and searing winds?  Nothing stops our Front Runners!  Instead of the Fun Run, they came in from the cold last Wednesday night to climb NYC’s tallest building.  The 35-year old elite event, staged by the New York Road Runners, continues to be a one-of-a kind world class race.  The Empire State Building Run-Up, started at the street level and included 666 runners who climbed 1,576 steps to the 86th floor.  Barbara Finnegan earned 1st place in her Age Group in 15:18 and also took 2nd place overall for the women  Philip Greenwald took 5th place in his Age Group in 17:04, followed by Daniel O’Neill in 17:28 and Phil Wahba in 22:28.  Congratulations on your amazing evening workout! Very inspirational!      Front Runners also came in from the cold for the NYRR Thursday Night at the Races to warm-up the fast 200-meter New Balance Track at the Armory.  The meet featured the 1 mile, 800m and the 3000m.  All of our runners ran smart races and some even shattered their previous records.  Josh Korth led the 1 mile for a new PR time in 4:33.8 (81.5 AG%),  followed by Lupe Rodarte in 5:37, Manny Romero in 5:52.9, and Giordano Fusco in 6:05.  In the 800m, Josh raced in 2:07 followed by Allen Durgin in 2:34.5.  The final event, the 3000m, included Thomas Hammer who earned a new PR in 8:50 (4:44 pace per mile, 83 AG%) followed by Scott Fitzgerald in 9:59 and Manny in 11:41.  Well done!  Way to represent FRNY! We also want to thank everyone who came out to cheer, time and volunteer!        The chilly winter conditions on Sunday morning did not stop another group of Front Runners.  They decided to kick off their red hot Valentine’s Day celebration early by running the BRRC Valentine’s Day 5K in Prospect Park.  Leading FRNY, AJ Stachelek in 30:40, did not seem to care about the cold weather.  Rachel Cutler finished with AJ without even knowing her time.  Sam LaFata ran the 5K in 32:52 taking 2nd place in his Age Group, followed by Karl Rutter in 36:47.  Special recognition for Sam and his award!  Well done!  Let’s hear it for having FUN on a RUN in the cold!      One Front Runner escaped the cold and went to Florida.  It all came together beautifully on Sunday for Jay D’ercola who ran the Tallahassee Marathon, a scenic, flat course in 4:42:12. Congratulations to Jay for earning a new PR by over a minute from his last NYC Marathon.  Jay attributed part of his success to perfect weather conditions on a beautiful course.  Trying to beat the winter blues?  Get ready, get set and go to the next installment of the track races on Thursday, February 23. Come out and burn some rubber at the Armory for the last NYRR Thursday Night at the Races.  Individual events range from 800 meters to 2 miles. No worries if you do not want to run solo.  You could be a member of a 10-person relay team where each athlete runs five 200m legs.         Gram Submission Guidelines   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.

Race ReportThis weekend the Brrrrrooklyn Hot Chocolate 10K ran HOT not COLD as Front Runners brought the heat running in the unseasonable warmth.  The weather conditions were absolutely perfect but the timing mats couldn’t stand the heat and froze under the pressure.  Nevertheless, several Front Runners enjoyed a fun run in Brooklyn’s beautiful Prospect Park on Saturday, sipping hot chocolate at the Oriental Pavilion and celebrating the change in seasons, if only for a day, at a bodacious brrrrrunch hosted by Michael Klein! Later that same day, another group of dedicated aquatic Front Runners rang in this tropical Saturday with a dip in the pool at John Jay for a either a solo or relay One Hour Swim.  Soloists included Onesimo De Mira (4,645 yards - NOT a relay), Cindy Hearing (2,365 yards - stellar debut), and Craig �Goodwin (2,050 yards - returning after less than 3 weeks from his debut).  Great job to these mermen and women!!!  Demonstrating great teamwork, Mike McMahon, Dave Laurence, Arturo Barcena, Eric Maldonado, and a TNYA member swam 4,275 yards, while our very own Koach Kent joined four TNYA members for a grand total of 4,650 yards.  The dynamic duo of Tom Malcolm and Richard Peterson (TNYA) also swam for a total of 3,960 yards.  Way to divide and conquer that hour gentleman! Steve Waldon and Michael Sanderson with 16 pounds of water on their backs On Sunday, Front Runners enjoyed the sunnier side of winter as well, by heading down to Miami (?Bienvenido a Miami!) for both the Miami Half Marathon and Marathon. Giovanny Leon began his pursuit of a-marathon-a-month goal, completing his debut marathon in a dashing 4:25:46!  In the half-marathon, Stacey Cooper (3:01) remarked that the course was beauty to behold and Ali Kliegman also enjoyed the sights as well while Steven Waldon and Michael Sanderson became one of the sights to see, running the Miami marathon with 16 pound backpacks in a jaw-dropping, head-scratching 3:35:23.  Also sizzling through the half marathon, Rich Velazquez burnt the competition in his blazing 21st place out of 16,000 finishers (1:17).  Smoking!  Leah, Katrina, Jen, Gemma, Sandi, and Rachel K. in Miami Also creating quite a boil was yet another group of Front Runners down in the Miami heat!  Leah Serinisky, Katrina Amaro, Jennifer Wisdom, Gemma Sanz de la Serna and Rachel Kliegman tackled the half marathon and Sandi Rowe ran the full marathon in sunny Miami to collect their medals. Some of the highlights aside from camaraderie included Gemma running with bronchitis-recovering Jen and Rachel crossing the finish line in triplicate while Sandi enjoyed show tunes on the marathon course. Well done!Last, but certainly not least, burning up the Sunday morning was Alison McKenna, completing the Freehold Area Running Club’s Winter Series 5K in a fiery 25 minutes, snagging 3rd place in her AG!  Great job to all of you Front Runners keeping it HOT all weekend!As a reminder, on February 19th, this year’s Cherry Tree 10 miler and 3-Person Relay will take place in Prospect Park.  This DOES count towards the new FRNY Participation Award so prepare to run solo or find your perfect match soon - runners are going fast!  Speaking of fast and participation, there is also a track meet on Friday, February 3 at the Park Slope Armory.  The next points race to register for is the Scotland Run 10k on April 7. Keep in mind that registration for April, May, and June will open at noon on Friday, February 10!  Don’t delay - get registered that day!
