Hey ChristaM
I actually train with my high school right now so i am not involved in any Queens clubs. and over the past 2 summers i mostly ran with the PSAL funded cross-country camp program or on my own.
however last summer i did become a member of Quantum Athletics (or, Quantum Feet Road Runners) and did several of their weekly runs of 6-7 miles on Tuesdays at 7pm. these runs are open to all so you should give it a shot
they also have longer runs on weekends but i didnt not do them. they are VERY nice people, and the running store, Quantum Athletics (Fresh Meadows) provides
really great service.
that is all i can tell you about queens clubs though. i would have joined another club if i didnt have the PSAL practices, because obviously two runs a week isnt enough for me.
thats why I was looking into New Hyde Park RR for when I move to Floral Park, because I will be starting college next fall and dont know if i will be eligible for the PSAL practices (or if i will even be able to get to them) and therefore I might have to run more on my own.
I was thinking about starting doing my Sunday runs now with a club, since i do an easy 9-10 mile run almost every week. but for the past 3 or 4 months i have been doing them all at Juniper Park. I actually really like it and i never get bored.
Do you ever run there? I do about a mile and a half on the track and then a loop on the park (~1.25 miles) and repeat. and time really flies. (but then again that may just be my weirdness. a lot of people think it would be too boring) I for one usually hate repeating, loop-type runs. so it is surprising that this has been working out for me.
