PBS filming for “Fitness in the Palm Beaches” segment

CASTING CALL!

We were contacted by our local PBS station for a special spot they are creating on “Fitness in the Palm Beaches.” So of course they want our World Famous PBRR folks on screen!

⭐ This is happening at Loggerhead Park in Juno Beach this Sunday morning at 9:30 am

They will shoot footage of us running on the beach road and a few interviews this Sunday, Dec 17th at 9:30 am. We will be meeting at Loggerhead Park at 9:15 am (new time) in the Loggerhead Park south parking lot. That’s the one you get to by entering Loggerhead Park by car and making an immediate right turn and following the road past the Turtle Center entrance. Continue around to the parking lot near the beach road.

Palm Beaches Marathon recap

We had a wonderful showing all weekend at the Garden of Life Palm Beaches Marathon. We saw so many of our runners & walkers in Saturday’s 5k and 10k events. Then on Sunday we had a SUPER showing of finishers, age group prize winning champions and first timers. Half marathoners did so well, with plenty of PBRR shirt-clad runners finishing strong on Flagler Drive. The marathon had many great performances also, including participation from some of our Marathon Training program athletes. It was a grand showing of our club to the world.

Did you see all the ladies with our hibiscus hair clips? 😀

We love our runners, our terrific volunteers and the families and friends that support what we love to do. We are jotting down notes and making plans on how next year’s big show in our home town can be even better. Keep in close contact here on the website, on Facebook and Instagram and by attending our runs and socials. We have a great 2024 planned!

Marathon & Half Marathon Training

 

Hello runners!

We are offering marathon and half marathon training in preparation for this year’s Palm Beaches Marathon weekend, December 9-10, 2023. This is open to runners and walkers, new and experienced, all are welcome!  This training program is for PBRR Members, providing you register for THIS marathon or half marathon in December. Your actual training begins in mid August.

To kick off the program, we will host informational meetups to let folks know how the training works. Our first two meetups will be this week, please see below:

  • Pig Beach BBQ – WPB – Wednesday, July 12, 2023 at 6:30pm. We have a fun run & social gathering happening at the same time. We recommend you stay at Pig Beach for the meetup and forego the run. Do stay for the social part & meet new friends! This way you will have plenty of time to ask questions and learn about the training.
  • Ocean Cay Park – Jupiter – Thursday, July 13th 2023 at 6:30pm – We will be under a pavillion near the Beach Road and Marcinski Rd corner of this beautiful oceanfront park. Look for the PBRR signs/banner

We will repeat these meetings in early August if you can’t attend one this week. You should only look to attend one of these meetings, as the same info will be shared at both.

Get ready to set and reach a goal, we can help!

Meet Amar Stultz, PBRR Scholarship Recipient

Amar Stultz racing during John I. Leonard’s Track season

Our most recent Palm Beach Roadrunner Scholarship winner/recipient is Amar Stultz from John I. Leonard High School.

Amar will be attending the University of Central Florida in the Fall Semester.

Amar is a current member of the John I. Leonard Track & Field team and a previous member of the Boy’s Cross Country team.

He is always happy to serve at any volunteer event we participate in. Amar is kind to his teammates and works hard to accomplish his personal goals while simultaneously encouraging his teammates to strive to meet theirs.

Academically, he has taken multiple AICE (college level) classes and has earned a 3.36 GPA. Athletically, he has had significant drops in his time in the 800 & 1600 and recently added the 3200 to his event line up. He is employed when not at school, choosing to be productive with his spare time. An enviable trait for a young runner!

We wish continued success to Amar at UCF and with his running endeavors!
