Inaguaral Jack’s Run for Autism Awareness -- A Reason to Run

2011 Date: May 14!

NSSA’s Third Annual Jack’s Run for Autism Awareness took place on Saturday, June 6th at Bar Beach (now called N. Hempstead Beach Park), Port Washington. All proceeds benefited Nassau Suffolk Services for Autism. As an added bonus, the new venue for the 5K Run/Walk gave participants the chance to enjoy a post-race day at the beach.

Congratulations to Noah Bondy and laura Murphy for their Men’s and Women’s First Place Overall finish! The 18 year old Mr. Bondy of Port Washington completed the race with a time of 16:49.5 and a pace of 5:25. Ms. Murphy aged 30 from Bayside finished in 21:11.3 at a pace of 6:50.

Jack’s Run is the inspiration of Michael Miranda and his wife Ondine Slone, whose nephew Jack attends NSSA’s Martin C. Barell School. Michael and Ondine are founding partners of Miranda Sambursky Slone Sklarin and Verveniotis, llP, a race sponsor.

Our last Jack’s Run netted $42,800 for NSSA! We thank all who walked or ran for NSSA, all who donated to Jack’s Run, and all who volunteered. The wonderful success of our event is due to your generosity and effort; and we thank you very much! NSSA gratefully acknowledges its sponsors for their generous support of Jack’s Run.
