The Northport Running Club was formed in April 1977 by a group of 5 local "running aficionados"…..that's… "lovers of running". The "perps" were: John Rakucewicz, Dale Barest, William Gehrhardt, Declan Quigley, and Paul Stillman. Our club reigns from the north shore of Long Island, NY with members of all running ability levels from throughout Suffolk and Nassau counties.
