    (An advanced competitive group run)
  Above runs are at Rockland Lake, and start at Parking Lot #6 (Fishing, Comfort Station and Boat Rental area) We recommend arriving 10-15 minutes early, to stretch and warm up before your run. Dress comfortably and according to the weather.

After our workouts (more so on the weekends), runners are often seen congregating at David's Bagels on Rt. 303 in Valley Cottage, exchanging "war stories" over hot coffee and a bagel.... a nice way to start the day!

The following group runs start at the South Nyack Police Station and are also held year-round, weather permitting.

  • Monday, Thursday, and Friday - 5:15 AM
  • Every Tuesday evening - 7PM

For more information on the South Nyack group runs e-mail Mike Angarola
