2013 Hudson Valley Grand Prix (HVGP)

HVGP The Hudson Valley Grand Prix is an 11-month race program designed to encourage friendly competition and achieve personal goals while interspersing excitement and suspense. The HVGP at one time or another has attracted almost all elite and dedicated non-elite athletes in the region. Come join us as we move into a new year of unique competition that will stimulate the running community.

In 2013, for the first time, the HVGP will move into a two-program system:

1) our traditional program of 16 races, some tougher and longer, others shorter and faster; 

2) an all-new 5K program of  15  races with an easy to moderate level of challenge called the HVGP The 5K Series.

Both will require the completion of 9 races for award status, and both are designed to inspire goal-inspiring performances. In addition, we'll have the Ironman and Ironwoman awards for those completing all of the traditional program; and the Mini-Grand Prix for 12-and-under kids will be incorporated in the all-5K series, with kids choosing any 7 of the 15.  The 31-race offering will culminate in a January 2014 awards luncheon, is free to all HVGP members, and includes valuable gift certificates courtesy of Frank's Custom Shoe-Fitting, Middletown.

Other sponsors include: Rowley Consulting;  McMickle Agency; Quinn Oil; A.& C. Carpet care and Floor Specialists; Laundry Shak; the Winner's Bracket.

The HVGP Board includes veteran athletes John Finnigan, Director; Cliff Davis, Treasurer; Marco Pabon, Statistician, Steve Brockett; George Shurter; Dave Badolato, ORC liaison; Tom Manza, SSRC liaison
