JRunners, the Brooklyn based Jewish runners group that combines health and fitness with tzedaka, held their 2nd annual relay race this past week.
8 teams of runners racing from Flatbush, to House of Glatt on Kingston Avenue, to Eastern Pkwy over the Brooklyn Bridge for the first route. Two Crown Heights residents Avremel Piekarski and Chanan Feldman joined.
Ending in Loch Sheldrake, their run raised money for the Ohr Meir Foundation, which arranges programs and trips for children with ‘yene machla’.
The gala finish took place at the Sullivan County Community College which featured inflatable rides, Uncle Moishy, the 8th Day band, Eli Schwebel, Aryeh Kunstler, Shea Rubenstein with music by the Shloime Dachs Orchestra.

The lubbies are also the one with tightest cloths! Well done!
Nice to see, at least you can see right away (-in a positive way), who’s Lubavitch!
It’s worth also to note their Chassidshe side as well, [even though Chabad Mont Pnimius], they are to be seen three times a day for Minyan in shull, and learn Chitas and Ramabam.
Yes, its hard to see in the pic, but its true, and should also be mentioned.
Their music is tops all the way!
next year jrunners should provide chairs!!!
go coby!! You da man!
Wow, what a run! Zayah shel Mitzvah! excited for you from Albany NY!
Both Married Marcus “men” are wearing jeans. NEVER judge a book by it’s cover. One is an amazing Shliach in Long Beach and the other one is the sweetest most amazing “Man” in the world. If your were half the person these guys are, you wouldn’t make such a stupid comment like that.
get a life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
This was advertised in the Jewish press (full page) for the past 4 weeks……………….

Chana and Avremal;
You guys rock!! Running so far. Did you hydrate properly?? Stop for a L’Chaim along the way?
Hope Poupko did a good job as Team Captain!
Next year, maybe Ariel will be the captain and you guys the co-captains!!

Wondering, is there any listings of all these summer events so we can hear about them BEFORE they happen instead of after?
The married Marcus is wearing JEANS?! GOSH!! BAD MOVE!
Goooo Chanan!
I love Lubavitchers!! Race, Food, Rides… and the ikar is Mivtzoyim. Mashiach NOW!!
Kobie Lang takes the cake with the tefilin mivtzoim on the tattoed biker. Also: nice to see our boys in the race with the tzitzis and other chasidic garb–this is the real Crown Heights. Kol hakavod.
WOW how many hours is the run from Brooklyn to Loch Sheldrake?.
