Roosevelt Island resident and runner Rachel Dowling shares these photos and reports:

There is a new running club on the island, Roosevelt Island Runners. We
relaunched the old defunct group and its been a great turnout. We are
interested in getting the word out to as many people as possible!

We meet Tuesday evenings at 7pm at Eleanors Pier

for a run around the island.

All paces are welcome. We break up into groups with 3 different paces.

We have an
Instagram
Page, a
Strava page, and a
Facebook
page.

We also meet up at
Granny Annies
afterward for those who can join us. The organizers are myself, Rick
Andrews, and Andy Smith.

We have had as many as 30 runners at our group runs .
