Runners, start your ovens! Via the EVG inbox…

The NYC Pizza Run is an annual challenge in which participants aim to complete a two mile run while stopping to eat three slices of pizza at checkpoints throughout the course. Our 2014 event will take place in the historic Tompkins Square Park on Saturday, September 13th.

In a food obsessed metropolis where people are always on the run, putting together an event which pays tribute to some of the city’s defining characteristics seemed like a no-brainer. So grab your appetite and running shoes & join us for our fifth annual run! It is open to participants of all ages.

Please note that a portion of the proceeds from the race benefit the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF).
