The UFT Runners, a diverse band of educators who share a common interest in running at various levels of proficiency, held their October meeting to make plans for another year of fun and fitness. Essentially a group of congenial runners and walkers who profit from each other’s company, they also have an elite competitive team that has competed at a high level for many years. Their main event has been the annual New York Road Runners Corporate Challenge 3.5-mile Central Park race, which has been traditionally followed by a terrific fiesta in the park. All UFT members are invited to participate. The Runners Committee is as much about friendship as about athletics.
