I picked up running in 2019 when I was living in New York City.

Situated a few blocks away from Central Park, I caught a glimpse of some Sunday morning NYRR races and decided to join in.

Through my former coach and friend, Ann Restak, I was introduced to Stuart Calderwood’s Great Hill Track Club and ran with them until I moved to Boston in 2021.

If you’re new to NYC and want to run with a great group, try out a run with them.
