John,
My name is Danny Silva and I am the Spa Manager for Equinox Fitness Clubs located in Brooklyn Heights. I came across the Brooklyn Road Runners Club website recently and thought I would reach out to you.
Members of the Brooklyn Road Runners Club probably get their work out accomplished on the road, but our fitness club also has a full service day spa that is open to non-members. I wanted to see if I could possibly send you (and the members of the Brooklyn Road Runners Club) some VIP discount cards to use at our spa towards a sports massage.
As a guest of the spa you will also be eligible to work out at our gym, take any of our group fitness classes, and also utilize our full service locker rooms that are equipped with showers and steam rooms.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions, as I would love to send out those VIP coupons for you and the other members of the Brooklyn Road Runners Club this week.
All the best

hey marianne, it's even better than that. the bag dropoff closes at 6am :)
quote from our friends at NYRR:
You must drop your bag off between 5:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. on race day.
Baggage check will close promptly at 6:00 a.m.
Last year we had a group that split car service. That's probably the best choice. If you wanna do that, lemme know.
how many other people are running the half from park slope area?
it's going to be amazing. Haile, Cheriyot, Abdi, . Plus worku and demesse (local fast guys). I love to see worku beat some of these super elites.

====== Club Team Championship -- Aug. 18======
The club team championship is the major club-race of the year.
The race is on Saturday, Aug. 18, at 8 am for men and 9 am for women. We will
have cars leaving Circles (15th & Bartel Pritchard, next to the movie theaters)
at 6:30 am, in time for the men’s race.
It is important for the club to have as much participants as possible: in this
race, numbers count.
It is also a good way to join our team, or run a race if you did not do so
before. Contact John, our team leader for more information

+
+ These are "daily training runs" of less than 10 miles. Also fit for speedwork.
+
+ Please give your appreciation of the runs.
+
+ Join us during our regular [[clubinfo:runs|training runs]]
+
+ ===== The Simple Loop. =====
+ 3.35 miles.
+ We normally start the Simple Loop around 15th street and Prospect Park West,
and go counterclockwise. Watch out for the long, steep climb in the north,
getting to Grand Army Plaza.

+ 6.25 miles
+ The Red hook track run is important for track training. It is a lot shorter
than it feels. We run 15th street to Red Hook, come back along Union street,
where the group normally disintegrates when crossing 7th avenue. Industrial
archeology and brownstone Brooklyn shape this run through near empty roads.

+ ===== Red Hook Track =====
+
+ There's a full eight-lane 400-meter nearly brand-new rubberized track, just
south of Carroll Gardens, just north-west of Park Slope, you can strap on your
spikes and burn your lungs out to your pounding heart's content. The track is
part of a massive, well-maintained City park that includes football/soccer,
baseball fields, a community swimming pool, and an indoor gym with an active
boxing program. The track is at the corner of Columbia and Bay Streets in Red
Hook (south of the Battery Tunnel entrance). Easy exit from the BQE, or take the
F or G trains to 9th & Smith Streets. (The subway stop is super-elevated.) Once
on the ground, head one block west to Clinton, south across the busy Hamilton
Avenue, then two blocks more south and west. (On your way Clinton will meet Bush
- which doesn't happen very often.)

+
+ ==== McCarren Park ====
+
+ North Brooklyn's largest park. There is a 1/4 mile track that attracts all
sorts, including a dedicated training group, as well the surronding complex of
park land--baseball fields, dog runs. The park house has a spontaneous but well
beaten running path about its circumference. These dirt loops are from 2/3 to 1
mile around, depending on your route. Until recently there was excecise
equipment (chin bars, leg lift bars, abdominal ramps) next to the track. I
presume these will be replaced once the ground work is repaired. It's not the
country, or even Prospect Park, but it's the best in the area if you want to get
off the street. (Description courtesy of a visitor to the BRRC website.)
+
+ ==== The Brooklyn Bridge ====
+
+ There are two entrances to the Brooklyn Bridge walkway from the Brooklyn side.
The walkway begins at north corner of Tillary and Adams Streets in Downtown
Brooklyn. A concrete pedestrian and bicycle path starts next to the traffic
entrance. From here you are about 1/2 mile from the beginning of the span. You
can enter the walkway farther along, using a stairway at the corner of Prospect
Street and Cadman Plaza East, past the north end of Cadman Plaza in Brooklyn
Heights. The walkway surface stays concrete as the bridge rises, but soon
changes to a wooden boardwalk. Now you are on the bridge proper, and are
starting to enjoy the big views up and down the East River. The boardwalk rises
faster than the roadbed, which is on either side, so you are well away from car
exhaust. A yellow line down the middle of the boardwalk separates bikes from
walkers/runners, but the bridge gets crowded and runners usually have to venture
out into the bike lane. Be careful doing this, though, especially going
downhill, since some bike riders love to fly down the bridge. On the Manhattan
side the concrete starts again and deposits you next to City Hall Park. You can
continue into Manhattan, south to Battery Park, west to the new Hudson River
Park, or even north towards the heart of the city. You could, of course, head
back east over Mr. Roebling's bridge to Brooklyn again (which is our favorite
alternative). Back in Brooklyn there is more running to do.
+
+ ==== Cadman Plaza ====
+
+ This long, skinny park sits at the northeast edge of Brooklyn Heights. You can
run on whatâs about a half-mile dirt trail loop. (At the south end the trail
breaks but you can loop around through a wood-chip zone.) An alternative is to
run on the sidewalk that circles the park. There are water fountains at both
ends of the park. Running through Cadman Plaza makes a nice complement to
running the Brooklyn Bridge. You can add a few (flat) Cadman Plaza loops to
Brooklyn Bridge hillwork, or go whole hog and tour more of Brooklyn while
keeping your heart rate in training range. Brooklyn Heights Promenade For
splendid views of Manhattan, without the rigors of Brooklyn Bridge hills, try
the promenade park at the west end of Brooklyn Heights. From Cadman Plaza, run
due west across Cadman Plaza West, then Henry, Hicks, Willow Streets and
Columbia Heights. The Promenade is just west of Columbia Heights and runs from
Middaugh Street at the north to Remsen Street south. You are above the BQE and
have unobstructed views of lower Manhattan.

The email below was sent to all entrants who were to run on Sunday -- there's no
race, and the Sat., Sept. 8 race has been chosen to replace it as a team race.
They will charge you for the Sept. 8 race if you don't tell them you're NOT
running it -- I hope everyone entered in Shea will run the Sept. 8 race.
There will be no cars gathering at Circles on Sunday, but I'll be at the usual
Sunday group run at 9 am across the street from Circles.

Dear John M Shostrom:
NYRR regrets to announce that due to unforeseen conflicts with other city
events,
the NYRR/NY Mets Run to Home Plate will not take place on Sunday, July 22.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this unexpected change. The race
will
be moved to a later date (TBD). Runners who registered for the Run to Home Plate
and who are not members of a local team will be automatically entered in the
rescheduled Run to Home Plate. Please contact Janet Cupo at jcupo@... only
if you can not make the rescheduled date. Janet will either transfer your entry
to
another event or issue you a coupon for any future (weekly) race.
The NYRR/NY Mets Run to Home Plate was to be one of this year's Club Points
races.
At the recommendation of many of the local teams, the September 8
Fitness Mind, Body, Spirit Games Presented by McDonald's 4-Mile
<http://www.nyrr.org/races/2007/r0908x00.asp> is now designated a Club Points
race.
If you are a member of a local team and have signed up for the Run to Home
Plate,
your entry will automatically be applied to the Fitness Mind, Body, Spirit
Games.
Please contact Janet Cupo at jcupo@..., only if you cannot make that race.
Janet will either transfer your entry to another event or issue you a coupon for
any future (weekly) race.
If you have registered your child for the Run to Home Plate Kids Race, that
entry
will automatically be applied to the rescheduled Run to Home Plate event. Once
again,
please contact Janet Cupo at jcupo@... only if you cannot make the
rescheduled
date. Janet will either transfer your entry to another Kids Race or issue you a
coupon
for any future Kids Race.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
Sincerely,
New York Road Runners
Thanks for the update Ralph. To think I had my Yankee running shorts ready to go.

This is the latest from the NYRR. It's not on the website yet. But if you're signed up for this race it's a good idea to check the website frequently.
The NYRR has had to cancel the Run to Home Plate scheduled for this Sunday. It is
possible that Saturday's Run for Central Park 4 miler in Central Park will replace it
as a team-scoring race.
