Paine to Pain Trail Half Marathon


On an unusually warm and wet October morning, Marist Running Alum Bryn Gorberg and her dad, Joe Gorberg, ran in the Paine to Pain Trail Half Marathon in Westchester County. Bryn said the rain was on and off the entire race, but it wasn’t too muddy because they were in the first wave of starters. Bryn was fourth in her age group (1:48:42) and Joe was second in his age group (1:43:10). Good stuff. Bryn emailed: “I’m pretty pleased with my race result considering it was an unusual 73 degrees and rained periodically throughout. I loved wearing the Marist Alumni jersey because spectators would cheer ‘Go Marist!’ Plus a majority of the Iona team was there, so it was great to get some cheers from a fellow MAAC team. Also, I met Adam Waterbury (Marist track alum, throwing record holder) because I was wearing the jersey! Overall great race day!’’

This is "only" a half marathon? Waterbury did the full 26 miles a couple of years ago in another race, which I found out about because of this wonderful Blog.
