I'll start with the most prominent club race of the year which takes place towards the end of July/beginning of August each year. I will be digging in to the results (specifically the times from CPTC) for some of the more high profile scoring races and offering a high level review of the results to go along with some visualizations. This setup creates an engaging year round team environment unlike any I have experienced anywhere else. Clubs compete in three different tiers (along with 4 different Master's age categories) with promotion and demotion among the tiers based on team results. There are 91 competitive and social running clubs registered with the New York Road Runners, who put on a fabulous series of scored club races. If you are not familiar with the New York running club racing scene, it's as deep and diverse as any city's club setup in the country if not the world. I joined the team in early 2016 after moving to the Upper East Side and have enjoyed every moment of my time running with CPTC (well not so much the final mile during some of the hot summer races, but almost every moment). You can read more about the team and its history on there webpage. The club consistently ranks as one of the top clubs across the city and on any given day you can spot many runners cruising through Central Park sporting the team's maple leaf logo and orange colors. Central Park Track Club (CPTC) has been a fixture on the New York road running scene since its founding in 1972.
