We had a GREAT day -- a Classic day? -- at the 41st annual Dutchess County Classic on Sunday. For the first time, the race was held from Dutchess Community College in Poughkeepsie, a close ride from our home in Hyde Park and our second home at Marist College. We had a GREAT alumni turnout. And once again, our loyal alum Mr. Bucket ("David Swift") hosted a fantastic post-Classic party at his house in the Town of Poughkeepsie. Swifty was originally scheduled to race the marathon, but a persistent and nagging leg injury forced him to scale back to the half marathon. Just as well, as we didn't want him to be late to his own party! We are extremely appreciative of Swifty's hosting in what has become a fine tradition that we hope will continue for many more years. Alumni, friends and family from many generations made their way to 39 Shamrock Circle on a beautiful late summer Sunday. Neat.
