We competed and completed Race # 4 on Sunday Septmeber 28, 2008 in White Plains, New York. The run took us throughout the city streets of downtown White Plains, passed at least two malls, under another mall, and back up a long incline along Bloomingdale’s Road( seriously!) and then continuing uphill along Mamaroneck Ave back to the finish line in front of the Galleria Mall and the White Plains library.
For this race, we had four participants running for team 50Fives. I was joined by daughter Carly, and by Steve and Danny Young of Riverdale, NY, by way of our hometown, Swampscott, MA. As you can see from the photo below, the younger team members got the job done for team 50FIves, each bringing home the hardware.

A great day- despite a cloudy and humid day for running, we avoided the rain that had been forecast, as the path of Hurricane Kyle stayed several hundred miles to the east. We are now almost 10 percent of the way to 50 !
