WOW! Michael Conlon who resides in our great Historic District of New Rochelle is the owner of The Finish Line is doing it again!
I do not know how Michael finds the time, but he has decided to have an inaugural Cinco De Mayo race on May 5th, 2024 at 9 am.
Finish Line Physical Therapy opened its doors to the Westchester community in summer 2021. If you have visited the clinic then you know, FLPT combines its 17 years of experience and passion for sport to bring you the best care and recovery services for the athlete in everyone. FLPT is where runners, endurance athletes and the active population go to get stronger, faster, and injury free. With over 4000 square feet of space and the most advanced treatment equipment available, FLPT New Ro provides prehab, rehab, and recovery services for every athlete! (Courtesy of Michael Conlon).
Michael has made himself an integral part of the community by creating “GivingYouMoreMiles” – a charity organization donates 100% of its proceeds to worthwhile local charities in our area. I think that we all know Michael by now as he created the New Rochelle Turkey Trot race (only race on Thanksgiving Day in the area), and through this annual race event ( 7th year and racing onward), so much money ( over $100,000) has been given to our local charities.
Per the site:
Our Mission
“Giving You More Miles continues to keep community at the center of its mission with the introduction of the Cinco de Mile! The mile race is looped course starting and ending on Hamilton Ave. Join us for an active morning followed festivities in partnership with the community. All proceeds from this year’s race will be donated to the The Giving You More Miles Scholarship Award that will be presented to a graduate of New Rochelle High School Class of 2024 who has gone “above and beyond” in our community.
With community at the center of our focus, we are also supporting a local New Rochelle family, the Guzinski family, as their daughter undergoes a long journey for cancer treatment. Read more about Nora and the Guzinski family and learn about ways to support!”
While I will not be running, I ordered 2 T-shirts (I love T-shirts) and it is a nice way to donate. A win win situation!
Thank you Michael yet again!
New Rochelle is great!
