It was a great day for a run through
the Jersey Shore town of Belmar. With over 3000 participants this year it
was one of the largest Belmar Fives in its 30 year history. The weather
must have contributed to some pretty fast times and possible course
records. The men's winner was Solomon Too (finishing on le left) in a time of 24:53 and for the
women it was Clara Horowitz of Rumson (on the right) in a spectacular time of.27:12.

Summer Series Week 4
Start of the Kid's Mile at the

Miler. All Invited.
Remember to participate in the final
week which is a handicap race you need to have run in at least one race.
The final night is the last Thursday in July. For the three mile run we
will have a handicap start based on your fastest time during the year.
Please get to the Registration area early on that night so we can get started as
soon as possible. We will plan to have the slowest runners leave starting
at about 6:45. Kids half mile and mile will go off as usual but we will
try to add in a little twist to make it fun for all. Series awards will be

Another large turn out for the third week of the Club's Summer
Series. It was a nice evening for a run and there were some new winners in
many of the events. Results are posted with points for the series. We have
a new scoring system which gives points for the overall male/female place (10
for first, 9 for second, etc with 1 point for all) as well as the age
group place in the same manner.
The Series Continues next Thursday with the Kids Races at 6:30
PM and the Open 3 Mile at 7 PM. Come on out - and get those points. With the new
scoring system everyone has a chance at winning and we will go at least 3 deep

individual event and qualify to run our series ending handicap race.

The weather in the north east this weekend threatened most
out door events, however the third annual Ryan’s Run attracted over 450
participants..245 runners completed the 5k and over 100 children competed in the
kids races. It rained ALL day Saturday in Middletown, except during our event!!
Our sponsors and the great group of competitive runners
that join us each year create a terrific and special running event said Andy
Kaiser race director. The 5k event
that includes a scenic cross country loop is one of the best race courses I have
ever ran said Diane Petruzzelli of Lincroft NJ who finished in 19:08. This is
one of the most organized events of the year, and the setting for the pre race
party, and awards ceremony on a private farm makes it a great place to bring the
kids said Nancy Aboff of Llyod Harbor NY.

International Track Meet
Seeking
Masters Runners for 4 X 800 Team(s)
As
usual, I am organizing JSRC's efforts to
enter Masters teams in the NJ International on Saturday, June 10. Yes, it
is the same day as The Sheehan Classic, so I am facing more challenges than
usual.
The goal is to field
at least one Masters Men's team (and maybe a Women's team) for the event.
As you can guess, we need four (4) respectable runners to field each team.
The event takes place in the afternoon, so it is possible to run both Sheehan
and NJ International (although I do not recommend it)! If you are
interested, please e-mail me (DRZurheide@aol.com)
by Sunday, May 21. The cost per person is a mere $5.
Please also consider
running the Mary Conry Memorial Women's Mile
in the Meet. As you know, JSRC is
sponsoring this event in memory of our beloved departed Club member. You
can run it as a serious competitive event, or jog it with a group (women AND
men). Either way. your support is encouraged. Thanks for your
consideration, Z
