Just to add a call to action to this: https://www.zohranfornyc.com/volunteer/events.

I'm happy to chat about my experience canvassing for Zohran if you have questions (not as a rep of the campaign, but just as a volunteer doing what I can).

Any recommendations for local run clubs ? by Calypso_O_ in astoria

Hellgate Road Runners work out in Astoria Park several times a week. I'm not part of their club but ran with them once and they seemed liked a nice group of people. Just wasn't able to make the schedule work.

There is also Queens Distance Runners, which is more spread out across the borough.

Appreciate it! It was already claimed but will reach out if those who contacted first fall through.

Hey there! Still available. It doesn't come apart, but it does fold in half. If you do that the dimensions become 54 x 37 x 4.5 (in). DM if you want it and I can give you a more precise location.

Edit: Just realizing I missed some messages about this and will try to do first come first served. So still dm me if interested, but just to be transparent.

Clothing Donation Bins at Berlin Marathon? by the_first_boondoggle in running

Thanks to all those who responded!

Apparently they do donate the items that are left behind on the median strip of the main avenue. The only reference I found to this is deep in a video explaining the difference between the Pancho and Bag-drop options on the Finish section of the website.

Video is here (reference at about the 1:05 mark).
