Preseason update: A Home Run of a race

On Sunday, we traveled out to James Baird State Park in LaGrange to support and cheer on runners in the inaugural Run For Home 5K race, put on by the Children’s Home of Poughkeepsie. The Children’s Home is where loyal alum Alex Cuesta is employed, and he was part of the planning team for this first-time race. Cuesta ran the race and got fourth overall (21:10), basking in the support and sarcasm from his former team as we lined the course and controlled traffic on the road. Our women completed their long run out at Baird and in the vicinity after the race. We hope this becomes an annual preseason tradition.
