Episode 40: The Club Champs

Listen to Episode 40

In which we debated true meaning of the phrase “The Shortest Distance Between Two Points Is A Straight Line” and other aspects of the NYRR Club Championship Five Miler. With Julie and Joe, who ran, and Brenn and Steve, who did not. There ensued a discussion about course-certification. (USATF has a database of certified courses.)

Steve mentioned some upcoming races being put on by NYCRuns, and Julie asked for info about a certified (see above) 5K in the Christmas period in the Tri-State area.

[Edited to Add: Linda Chan points out that the FITNESS® Mind Body + Spirit 4-Miler on Sept. 17 also has a separate men’s and women’s start, the former at 9, the latter at 10.]
