last points race

So my running team, the Flyers, competes in the NYRR “B” division among the open men. And after 10 races this year we are tied with the damn Polacks for first place. Yes both the Flyers and the Polish Running Club have 133 points total with just one more race to go, the Joe Kleinerman 10K on Sunday. The winner will move up into the “A” division next year.

I do not see myself scoring for the team — only the first five runners count — but I’ll be out there anyway. Let’s go Flyers!

4 comments to last points race

  • Watch it with the “Polacks” comments, buddy! You know, some of your teammates are Polish! Heehee.

    Here’s hoping we make the move to the ‘A’ Division!

  • I am the co-captain of the Polish Runners Club (PRC) here in New York and it has been nothing but friendly competition this season between us and your team, the NY Flyers, in the Men’s B Division. That being said I am offended by your “damn Polacks” comment in your last entry. If you did not know, the term “Polacks” is derogatory and is equally as offensive as other ethnically derogatory terms that have recently been so shamefully used in public venues. I ask that you please refrain from using such terms, especially since you are doing it in a public forum. Thank you.

  • Jacob … that was a joke and no offense was intended. If you guys were the Italian Running Team I would have probably said damn Guineas. But since you’re sensitive about it, sure I won’t use it.

  • While you were trying to beat the nice Polish guys, the Brooklyn Road Runners came up from behind. Next year, we might even beat you for the first place in the B-competition. Although, it is just nicer and less commercial at the B-level. Better third in B than last in A.
