Runners Edge Fun Run was cool and damp, but fun


An enthusiastic group of about 50 runners showed up at the GLIRC Clubhouse in Plainview on the morning of February 28th to continue – on a MUCH smaller scale – the annual GLIRC/Runner’s Edge Fun Run that has highlighted the last Sunday in February for decades.

The runners picked their partners and their distances, most of them choosing an out-and-back on the bike path, with a few especially adventurous souls heading out on the Greenbelt Trail. They were all welcomed on their return with a grab-and-go bag of post race goodies, iccluding bottled water and bagels and brownies donated by Glen Wolther and All Round Foods.

The Runner’s Edge was very generous with their donation of Door Prizes: Guy Edwards and Jim McDougall each won a pair of running shoes, Jennifer Love and maria Fucella each won an ON Canvas Bag, Steve Rossi and Paul Liebler each took home a Saloman knot hat, Shawn Momtahen and Barbara Davis each won a New Balance knit hat, Oscar Lorenzo and Dee Vogt were each presented with a Balega Metal Bottle, and Jennifer Vargas, Maura Turner & Gareth Brancato each won Balega socks & bracelet. Thank you to Bob Cook and the gang at the Runner’s Edge for their generosity!

Thanks to Myron and Sherry Bellovin for acting as the Running Club’s hosts for the event.
