County Exec Kicking Off Marathon Training

Series of training runs starts Thursday in Patchogue

Join County Executive Steve Bellone tonight at 6:30 p.m. for a free, informal training run at the Blue Point Brewery, 161 River Ave., Patchogue.

The training runs are in preparation for the Suffolk Marathon and Half Marathon in Support of Our Veterans, scheduled for Sept. 13.

Not only will you have the opportunity to run a beautiful 4-mile course with your friends, fellow runners, veterans, and the County Executive, but our partners along River Avenue including the Blue Point Brewery, the Harbor Crab, Off Key Tikki, and the Dublin Deck are prepared to offer a free drink to every participant. Hopefully you’ll be able to join us for this fun and exciting evening.
