Start of the 2009 Mule Haul (photo by Brian Teague)
- Thanks to all - Jane Constantine, our tireless volunteer coordinator, thanks everyone who helped out and volunteered at the Mule Haul. Without the help of all the volunteers the event would not be the success it is year after year. The help was greatly appreciated.
- Start working up your appetite - the annual FMRRC picnic is taking place Sunday August 9 at Schoharie Boat Launch (across from Karen's Produce in Fort Hunter. There will be a walk/run at 10:00 AM and eats at 12:00 noon. Please bring a dish to pass if you can, your cooler with drinks, and enough chairs to flop in after the grueling runs. FMRRC is providing hot dogs, rolls, and condiments. Please RSVP by August 4th by calling Joyce Poulin (842-9702) or Jim Louison (843-5637). You can also RSVP by email to Joyce Poulin .
- The latest Grand Prix results are up - follow the Grand Prix link at left. Please check race results and the Grand Prix standings to make sure there are no errors or omissions. I have it on good authority the Grand Prix chairman is not totally infallible.
- The 26th annual Mule Haul 8K took place Sunday, June 21 - the skies cleared as 215 runner finished the race and picnicked afterwards on the usual gastronomic delights. 72 FMRRC runners were among the crowd. Here's a link to the results
- Congratulations to all the hardy runners at the Lexington 5K - and to Jim Swart and Lexington and FMRRC volunteers. There was a record turnout of 106 runners, with 41 FMRRC runners gracing the field. Of special note: Jonathan Hill and Kellie Lawton later in the day took first places at the 2 mile Rotary Ramble in Fort Plain.
- Updated email addresses needed - Our Volunteers Committee chairwoman, Jane Constantine, needs to update her email list. If you haven't received an email from her in the last month, please email Jane Constantine
- Looking for someone to run with on Saturday mornings? Come to the Burger King Restaraunt on Route 30 in Amsterdam. That's now been adopted as the official meeting place following the recent closing of McDonalds up the road. On almost any Saturday morning year-round you'll find Fulmont Roadrunners running four or eight miles (and sometimes more) at varing paces, starting out at 8 AM. There's also a walking group. After the running/walking, most folks stop in at Burger King for refreshments and war stories (about their chosen sport, of course)
