Tuesday Night Speed Series - June 26th - 7pm

Calling all Knights! This coming Tuesday is the second instalment of the Tuesday Night Speed Series at Ichan Stadium on Randal's Island. This is a great opportunity to release your inner speed demon and tear up the track in a real competition. The events for this edition are the 800m, 1500m, and 5000m. Racing is held between 7:00-8:30pm and general admission is only $10! This will get you into as many events as you wish, however, I can't imagine running a 1500m and then going for a 5k!

Father's Day 5mi - Sunday, June 17th

Calling all Knights! The Father's Day 5miler kicks off at 8:30am this Sunday. This is a Men's team scored race although it is open to both men and women. Please send us a note if you are planning on racing so we can arrange a meet up location. Unfortunately, I (John) will not be able to race this weekend as I am focused on the JPM Corporate Challenge next Wednesday. However, I will probably be there to cheer everyone on and meet the new members. The race will start and finish near Tavern on the Green and will be a clockwise loop around the park. This is the best layout for some really fast times!

For full race information including the course map click here.

Confirmed racing so far: Anna, Elizabeth, Joe?, Marc?, and Stephen.
