From the folks at New-York-Trail-Ultrarunning: On May 15th at a race in Sussex County NJ our own Phil McCarthy broke the 48-Hour American Running record! Phil ran 257.34 miles total! That is an average pace of 11:12 for 48 hours straight! McCarthy shattered the previous record of 248.55 miles held by John Geesler, set in 2003. JOIN fellow runners and friends on Wednesday May 25th to celebrate with Phil his new American record! We have reserved our own room with couches etc. at McAnn’s Bar & Grill ( www.mcanns46.com), 3 West 46th St. (just west of 5th Ave). Phil will be there to talk about and answer questions about his record run. We will have some buffet style food provided. There will be a cash bar and there is a full menu if you want to order other food. We plan to get started at 6:00PM and stay well into the night! Feel free to invite and bring along friends who want to celebrate with us as well. Please RSVP to the event at www.meetup.com/New-York-Trail-Ultrarunning or just send me an email ( runningmeetup@gmail.com) to let us know you're coming. Hope to see you all there!
