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
President

Pocono Marathon
Karen Charles - Third Place Female
Karen Charles Accepts her Third
Place Award
The first Annual Pocono Marathon was
a charmer for Karen Charles who placed as the third female in a very competitive
field in a time of 3:08. The course was especially tough with lots of
hills which could be expected in the mountains of the Poconos. While the
was an overall 1500 vertical drop from the start to the finish in between were
many hills. The course was especially scenic and the organizers and the
Pocono community should be commended for an outstanding first year marathon -
there were nearly three volunteers for every runner and the entire community
came out to cheer on the runners. A marathon to be considered.
The
JSRC banner was proudly displayed along the course at mile 14.2 in Paradise
Valley at the loaction where Deana MacLean-Roberts spent summers growing up and
a lot of time running. Some pictures to follow of the small display.
Other club finishers included:
Karen Charles 3:09, Mike Baker

Queens Half Marathon

What a great day for a race! The sun
was shining as we ran along the East River, where vessels of all shapes
and sizes were seen against the background of the NYC skyline. The course
was very hilly, yet the beauty of the magnolia, cherry and dogwood trees
blooming at the peak of their blossoms was enough to place your thoughts in
another zone! It was truly a glorious race! Mark it on your
calendar for next year!
