NYRR needs and greatly appreciates the assistance of VOLUNTEERS at all of these events. Volunteering is a wonderful way to give back to the sport of running. Once again Mercury Masters is continuing their ‘Adopt a Race’ tradition as a show of appreciation to the New York Road Runners by marshalling two races: Sunday, June 6, 2010: Japan Day Run (4M) Sunday, June 27, 2010: Achilles Hope & Possibility (5M) With the help of  ‘fashionable’ orange bibs, and bullhorns, we will keep runners in the recreation lanes, direct park traffic, and act as a cheering section for all runners.
