The Nittany Valley Running Club web site is the place to go for information about races, running groups, running routes, training opportunities, email discussion groups, and pretty much everything having to do with running in Central Pennsylvania! It's a big site, so explore away.Our most popular pages are in the Quick Links on the left. If you want to connect to the local running community, join one of our email discussion groups, or visit us on Facebook.
Note: Our new web site has been online for two years now. Most of the content from the old site is available and updated to the new format. If you have any suggestions on how to make the site easier to use, let us know! Email either Dave DeGroote or Marty Mazur with any problems you find. If you can't find something from the old site on the new one, use the search bar above. Much of the new site is cataloged and searchable. More of it will become searchable soon. Finally, if you need it, the old site is still available here, but please let us know if there was something broken on the new site that made it so that you needed the old site. In time, the old site will become out of date. |

Marty Mazur and his family recently hiked the Cherry Run Trail near Lamar, PA. The trail would also make a nice trail run, though challenging in spots. Here's a link to Marty's report on the trail. |

January 26, 2012
It was dark, drab, and rainy as John Domico, Lance Bland,
Judd Michael, Ken Davis, George Lesieutre, Dana Todd, Jim Laudermilch, newcomer Monica
Houston, Michael Goldfine, and Marty Mazur headed for the track. They had to ply their way between
cars and walkers headed to the Bryce Jordan Center for the JoePa Memorial.
There was some question as to whether the MSF would be open, but the trackers
were prepared to run on the outdoor track if it wasn't. Well, Tom Cali, Bob
Cornwall, Jon Thurley, Dean Capone, Meira Minard and Esther Prins weren't
prepared. They did something or other at Rec Hall. Do they have a maypole court
set up there?
The MSF was open. There was a reception going on in the
upper lobby for the Penn State Lettermen and their families. But the Trackers
made their way unobtrusively in through the lower doors. Some of the Lettermen
even watched as we did a light workout. Light because a few of the runners were
planning on doing Friday's Indoor Mile. Bwana did a few 2 lappers.
Over the years, we've done several JoePa related
track workouts. I distinctly recall the workout we did when JoePa won his 324th
game to pass Bear Bryant among major college coaches. Joe and Sue Paterno were
generous supporters of the NVRC Marathon Teams for Centre Volunteers in
Medicine. Regular runners would often happen upon Joe on one of his long walks,
which became shorter and less frequent in recent years. And, of course, the Rec
Hall crew passed JoePa's house every Monday on their regular Toftrees run. As
the Track Crew headed back to Rec Hall, there were even more people converging
on the BJC. Bwana watched the tribute to JoePa on BTN.com. Very nicely done. |

2012 Indoor Mile Series Schedule Announced |
|
|
|
Written by Marty Mazur
|
|
The 2012 Indoor Mile Series will again feature 4 meets in January and February. Each meet will have heats of the mile. The last meet will also have a heat of the 3000 meter run. As usual, there will be a Predicted Time Contest for the mile at the last meet.
The Indoor Mile Series is open to all NVRC members except students high school age or younger (due to NCAA recruiting rules). The coming Series will be held on the newly resurfaced Multi-Sport Facility track. There will be new regulations regarding spikes, which will soon be posted on the Indoor Mile Series page. Details of the Series can be found here. |
