In the men’s race, the West Side Runners (WSX) easily defeated NYAC (second) and CPTC (third); CPTC and the Greater New York Racing Team finished second and third for the year. Masters’ (age 40+) titles were won by the men of the Warren Street Social & Athletic Club (WS) and the Running Divas New York women, both of whom also won their yearly contests. |
