Team Racing

Taconic Road Runners participates in team club points races sponsored by New York Road Runners. Each year, NYRR designates 10-12 of their races as club points races. While most of these races are in Central Park, a few are held in the other boroughs. Both the mens and womens teams traditionally, have done very well, placing within the top three, and usually first, place.

For more information regarding Taconic’s Women’s teams, contact Cathy Groneman at cg2golong@cs.com. Drop Cathy an email and she’ll include you in our mailings announcing our upcoming team events.

Here’s her latest announcement:

 

• The Taconic ladies will be having their annual get-together at Jaipore Royal Indian Restaurant in Brewster, NY on Sunday, Feb. 26. We will be meeting there at 12:30 to enjoy their lunch buffet. Cost is $20 at the door, and covers the cost of the brunch ($14.95) plus tip. Adult beverages are available at your cost. The luncheon is a great way to catch up with people you may not have seen in a while, and is certainly not limited to those women who participate in the team races. Come along, and bring a friend! You can RSVP to Cathy Groneman at cg2golong@cs.com

  For those of you interested in racing, our next team race is Coogan’s Salsa Blues 5k on Sunday, Mar. 4. Registration is closed, but I would love to hear from those of you registered to know if we have a team, and if you would like to carpool from Millwood. Again, you can get in touch with Cathy at cg2golong@cs.com

  I will try to post the schedule of races on runner.org, but am technologically challenged, so it’s a bit of a stretch. If you’d like, I can emaila copy of the schedule to you; contact me at the address above.
