- Informal Running of the Turkeys - FMRRC is having a breakfast run Thursday, November 26 at 7AM at the Burger King on Route 30 in Amsterdam. A light repast at the Windmill Diner will follow, since we all have to save room for the bird of the day.
- Run off that Turkey afterwards west or east - two post Thanksgiving area Turkey Trots of note. The first is in Canajoharie Saturday, Nov 28 at the Canajoharie Fitness Center. The second is in Altamont Saturday, Nov 28 at St. Lucy's Parish Hall. For all the details, see our race calendar page.
- New feature on the website - a race results page has been added to the website - see the links on the left hand side of each page. Here you'll find results for all Grand Prix and other races, including some results you probably won't find elsewhere. If anyone out in the running community has race results or an upcoming race they'd like to have added to the race results or race calender, or comments or sugggestions about the website, please email Bill Platt .
- Grand Prix News - the 2010 Grand Prix race schedule has been set. There are a few new races on the schedule - for all the details click here. The first two races on the schedule, the Winter Wimp and Polar Cap Run, have applications online.
- Pizza Bash recap - the 2009 Pizza Bash is now in the history books. Club offficers for the coming year were nominated, and awards were given out. Congratulations to Matt Van Slyke and Laura Milak, winners of the overall Grand Prix competition. Congratulations to Meghan Davey (Rookie of the Year), Sarah Dzikowicz (Volunteer of the Year), Rob and Shirley Hudyncia (Comebacks of the Year), and congratulations squared to George Freeman (Special Achievement of the Year and the Presidents Award). And a special "THANK YOU" goes to retiring officers - Joyce Poulin (President), and Mandy Ferguson (Secretary), for the years spent toiling in the trenches to help make FMRRC what it is today. You will be missed! And yes, we have the pictures! Click here for a slideshow.
- The 2009 Mileage Challenge numbers to date are up - see what you and fellow runners are up to. Follow the Mileage Challenge link or for the clicking impaired click here.
- The final Grand Prix standings (including the Great Sacandaga 10K Road Race) are posted - see the Men's Standings or Women's Standings. Check the standings - the fellow that tallies the results sometimes has low batteries in his calculator, if you get the drift. Also some Grand Prix competitors have reached the maximum number of races (eight) included for consideration. Remember only the best eight results per competitor are included.
- 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)
