The Fourth Petite Track Meet

The Pittsburgh Pharaoh Hounds hosted the Fourth Petite Track Meet (sponsored by Pro Bike + Run)!

It was a great opportunity to come run your PR or do a time trial for the Liberty Mile in a variety of races -- from 100 m to 5000 m -- at a convenient location at Schenley Park.

The results can be found here (complete list).

Some photos are here (thanks to Mike McNeil!).

ATTENTION RUNNERS: traffic will be heavily impacted by the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix road closures. Please plan to arrive earlier than you normally would, to give yourselves plenty of time to get through the traffic, park, check in, and warm up.

Driving directions: you will be able to access the Schenley track by entering from Greenfield (Greenfield Ave.) or from Boulevard of the Allies (exiting at Overlook Dr). You will NOT be able to enter the park from Squirrel Hill (Hobart St, Bartlett St) or from CMU (Panther Hollow Rd). Free parking is available along Overlook Dr. You will be able to exit the park via Greenfield Ave. More information on the closures can be found here.
