Does anyone do any of the long island runs?

I started running about 10 months ago off and on, and feel I am okay now to do one of those runs. Does anyone else do them?

I have done a couple and I am thinking about do more in the future.

I have done the ones on the East End, the FireCracker 8K in Southampton and one for Cancer in Bridgehampton.

Its a long way off right now but in the Fall there is teh Cow Harbor run in East Northport. Its a hilly course but lots of fun. Keep your eye out for it.

Also during the summer, Eisenhower Park in East Meadow has a '5k fun run' every wednesday night and on saturday mornings.

Also look into the Long Island Road Runners Club or the Greater LI Running Club. Not sure how advanced they are but I have heard great things about both.

If you have you sights set on longer distances, FM me and I'll give you more info. Good luck!

My goal is to make the cow harbor run in September. There are so many runs on long island its great. I will say that I am a little intimitated by the 10k, because let's face it 6 miles is pretty far, but it gives me something to work towards.

Thanks for your help ladies.
