Patagonia 

Climate change is happening now – 

extreme weather is everywhere and 

affects our enjoyment of the outdoors. 

Over the next four years, we’ll need to 

invest even more in people-powered 


movements to defend our lands, waters and communities. It’s these movements 

– made up of grassroots organizations and national coalitions – 

that can resist environmental rollbacks and create local protections. Our 

business has supported these groups for the past 50 years, and we’re not 

slowing down. We’ll keep funding them – and building ways for you to 

support them, too. When you’re ready, visit Patagonia Action Works to get 

started: patagonia.com/actionworks. 

Together, our actions are never wasted. Like a river, they build 

momentum. Like a tree, they grow roots.

Troy Turkey Trot’s Costume Contest 

2023 

Organizers of the 77th Troy Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving Day are calling on participants 

to add some festive flair to their race day by joining the annual costume contest. 

This Troy tradition is a prime chance to strut your creativity and add to the spirit 

of one of NY’s longest-running holiday road races. The contest offers $350 in prizes 

for Most Unique and Best Thanksgiving Day costumes. Whether you’re dressing as a 

turkey, pilgrim, or something entirely unexpected, the competition is on for the most 

eye-catching outfits of the day. “The Turkey Trot is more than a race, it’s a community 

celebration,” said Troy Mayor Carmella Mantello. “Everyone is welcome, and best of 

all, participants support two vital organizations, Joseph’s House & Shelter and the 

Regional Food Bank.” 

To enter, complete the form: troyturkeytrot.com/annual-costume-contest. Then, 

email it with photos of your costume by 10am on Nov. 28 to: info@troyturkeytrot.com. 

For a better experience, register in person at O Snap photobooth’s Costume Contest 

Area of the Troy Atrium from 6:30-10:30am. A rep will be on hand to assist with entry, 

take your photo, and display the them on the packet pickup area’s bulletin board. All 

costume entries will be featured on the event’s Facebook page, where fans will vote by 

“liking” their favorites. Cash prizes are awarded to the top three in each category: $100 

for first place, $50 for second, and $25 for third. Winners will be notified the week of 

Dec. 2. Visit: troyturkeytrot.com. 

Tommy McClellan’s “World Class” 

Stand-up comedian and US athlete Tommy McClellan-Willard will be returning to Upstate NY 

headlining the Glove Theatre in Gloversville on Saturday, Dec. 14 with his new show “World Class.” 

This show is about Tommy’s journey making the US team for the 2025 Winter Triathlon World 

Championships, which consists of running, biking, and Nordic skiing. Tommy grew up in Fulton 

County and attended Mayfield High School where he ran and cross country skied. The show will 

also feature a raffle fundraiser to support up and coming athletes at Tommy’s alma mater, Mayfield 

Nordic Ski team. The 2025 Winter Triathlon World Championships will take place in Pragelato, Italy. 

The show starts at 7pm and tickets can be purchased here: ticketstripe.com/tommysback. 

Winter triathlon is very popular in Europe and albeit still fringe, but it’s growing in the USA. 

Tommy’s goal is to help grow this sport by being one of the first US athletes to compete in the 

Elite division. The hope is that he performs well and other athletes start to take notice of the sport. 

Although it is smaller in the US, the Empire State Winter Games has a Winter Tri race (5K run, 

10K winter bike, 5K XC ski) on Feb. 8 in Tupper Lake: empirestatewintergames.com. The National 

Championship is in Breckenridge, Colo. on Feb. 15: usatriathlon.org. To qualify for the world championship, 

you need to compete and place at the national championship. It’s a fun, growing, and welcoming 

community. Tommy’s grateful to be playing a role in representing our country in this sport, 

and he hopes to play a role in helping it grow and making it accessible to other athletes of all ages.

Adirondack Ski Mountain 

Sells at Auction 

A pair of entrepreneurs from New Jersey won the biggest prize at a 

Malone foreclosure auction on Nov. 7, taking control of the former 

Big Tupper ski resort in Tupper Lake. They envision reopening the 

defunct downhill facility for recreation. Josh Parnes and business 

partner Martin Schapira of Jackson, N.J. are behind the $650,000 bid 

by Emerge and own a residence in Tupper Lake. They hope to get the 

ski resort back open with the county and town involved. He said he 

and his partner respect and enjoy nature and hope to build something 

beautiful that the community will take pride in, including a 

restoration of the ski lodge. To restore it to an alpine facility, an owner 

would have to spend millions of dollars, according to town officials.

Think snow – there’s no better place 

to be than outside in winter. Visit 

these ski resorts in New York and 

the Northeast to have fun with family and 

friends. Share your passion by enjoying 

the active lifestyle of exploring and connecting

more than 25 ski areas – with no blackout 

dates. If you’d like to learn to ski or snowboard, 

check out the many special packages 

and programs at participating mountains. 

Visit: iskiny.com. 

The state’s biggest ski area, Gore 

Mountain, is loved by skiers and riders for 

their range of trails and diversity that nine 

sides of four peaks deliver. For 2024-25, the 

new Hudson Chair Quad is planned to be 

available for this ski season, which is a high 

speed detachable lift that will load/unload 

at the same location as the original Hudson 

chair. If you don’t have a SKI3 season pass, 

book your snow days in advance and save 

with e-tickets. Visit: goremountain.com.

Whiteface offers it – the biggest vertical 

drop in the East, challenging slopes, and

with new pipe and high-efficiency 

tower guns have been installed at the popular

when the snow comes. Visit: skihickory.com.

2023 REINDEER 5K AT 

SUNY ADIRONDACK. 

After Thanksgiving, the holiday season is a hectic time 

of year, so mix in some fitness and fun! Consider these 

winter and holiday themed races in December to New 

Year’s Day to enjoy the experiences, be social, and stay 

healthy. Change it up with a few snowshoeing races this 

winter and you’ll be ready for a happy, healthy 2025. See 

the Calendar of Events for our full road, trail, and snowshoe 

race schedule. 

The Adirondack Runners Reindeer 5K Run/Walk is 

on Saturday, Dec. 7 at SUNY Adirondack’s Queensbury 

campus. While reindeer can run on either snow or pavement, 

their hoofs are happier on snow, so the weather will 

decide the advantage. The course along the campus has a 

few hills, so that will add a layer of challenge. If you’d like a 

Reindeer race shirt, register by 11/21 for a size guarantee. 

Entry closes at 250 runners/walkers, there are discounted 

entry fees for youth, and proceeds benefit Wait House.

The Hudson Mohawk Road Runners Club kicks off 

their long-running Winter Series with Race #1 on Sunday, 

Dec. 15 at 10am with a 5K and 15K race. The series is every 

other Sunday (except for Race #2 on Wednesday, Jan. 

1) through Feb. 9 at the University at Albany’s Physical 

Education Building. The series offers a casual atmosphere 

around the UAlbany Campus and outer loops 

of the Harriman State Office Campus. Each race in the 

series has two or three distances from which to choose. 

The long runs are great for building your fitness or spring 

marathon/half training, with fully supported courses with 

marshals, and free food – to keep the competitive spirit 

going over the cold weather months. 

Races are free for HMRRC members and $5 for 

non-members – a good incentive to join the club! If you 

participate in all, and volunteer at least once in the five 

event series, you’ll receive Survivor status – and 

there’s a gift attached as well! Awards are given 

to age group winners and runners-up, with free 

cookies and hot beverages served afterwards. On New 

Year’s Day, Race #2 in the series is the Hangover Half 

Marathon & Bill Hogan 3.5-Miler. It starts at 12pm so 

you can watch the ball drop the night before, and still get 

a good night’s sleep! The Winter Series continues on Jan. 

12, for Race #3 with a 3.5M, 10K and 25K; Jan. 26 for Race 

#4 with a 3.5M, 15K and 30K; and Feb. 9, Race #5 with a 

3.5M, 10M, and 20M. Sign up: hmrrc.com. 

Snowshoeing is a fun way to enjoy the snow and get 

a great workout. One of the first races of the season is the 

Gore Mountain Snowshoe Race on Sunday, Dec. 15 at the 

Gore Mountain Nordic Center (Ski Bowl) in North Creek. 

The start time is 2pm, with preregistration online, or day of 

entry at the Ski Bowl Lodge. The 5K timed race will be two 

2.5K laps on the groomed trails and the untimed fun run/ 

walk/hike is one 2.5K lap. The course length will depend 

on early winter conditions, with natural and/or manmade 

snow, which makes for a reliable opener! Gore gives great 

prizes to the top finishers plus all participants will be 

entered into the raffle prize drawings. Dion Snowshoes 

will be available to rent for $5 a pair but a limited number 

will be available so arrive early! Register: skireg.com.

HIKING & BIRDING 


Go Walk Their New 

2.6-Mile Birding Trail 

SHORT-EARED OWL. 

TODD SCHEUERMANN 

By Katherine Roome 

Have you ever stood in a grassland 

at dusk with the Adirondack 

Mountains in the background and 

watched ten or more Short-Eared 

Owls fluttering like butterflies about 

20 feet over your head? If not, you’ve 

missed something truly wonderful. 

This is a sight that can be seen 

many winter evenings at the Audubondesignated 

Important Bird Area in 

Fort Edward. The IBA is where the 

Grassland Bird Trust works to conserve 

critical habitat for endangered, 

threatened and rapidly disappearing 

grassland birds. 

There are probably fewer than 50 

pairs of Short-Eared Owls left living 

year round in New York. These owls fly 

south to Fort Edward from the Arctic 

for the winter. Apparently, the IBA is 

their idea of Sarasota in Florida. 

Threatened upland Sandpipers, 

American Kestrels, Horned Larks, 

Bobolinks and Eastern Meadowlarks 

are also grassland birds. But the stars 

of the winter landscape in Fort Edward 

are the Short-Eared Owls and the 

threatened Northern Harriers – also 

known as “grey ghosts.” Watching the 

grey ghosts flying at sunset with the 

Adirondacks as a backdrop is another 

must do for those who don’t mind a bit 

of winter weather. 

Why are grasslands so important 

for these birds and what is a grassland 

anyway? Most grassland birds can only 

nest in grass on the ground. They can’t 

SHORT-EARED OWL. 

GORDON ELLMERS 

live in forests or anywhere 

else except in large fields. 

Hayfields can be grasslands if they 

are not mowed while grassland birds 

are breeding, nesting and fledging their 

young. But most hayfields are not grasslands 

because, to get a maximum yield, 

farmers need to mow hayfields during 

those critical weeks. That’s why grasslands 

suitable for grassland birds are disappearing 

from the New York landscape, along 

with the grassland birds. 

Because grasslands are disappearing 

all across the country – only 4% of our 

nation’s grasslands are still intact – over 

53% of grassland birds have disappeared 

since 1970. They are sometimes referred 

to as the “canaries in the coal mine” of 

the predicted sixth species extinction. It 

is rare to find an upland sandpiper in New 

York these days. Sadly, it is predicted that 

it will be just as difficult to find an Eastern 

Meadowlark 25 years from now. 

Come walk our new 2.6-mile birding 

trail, the newest addition to the NYS 

Birding Trail! The Grassland Bird Trust 

is the only land trust in New York State 

whose sole mission is to conserve habitat 

for grassland birds. 

The Grassland Bird Trust just made 

seeing grassland birds easier by opening 

its new 2.6-mile Alfred Z. Solomon 

Grassland Bird Trail this past October. 

This trail is also the latest addition to the 

New York State Birding Trail. 

The Grassland Bird Trust’s new trail, 

located at 160 County Route 42 in Fort 

BEAUTIFUL MALE NORTHERN 

HARRIER (AKA “GREY GHOST”). 


Edward, starts at the 

Alfred Z. Solomon 

Grassland Viewing Area 

and from there, winds 

through the grasslands 

and along a creek with 

spectacular views of the 

Adirondack Mountains 

as well as the Green 

Mountains. The trail is 

open from sunrise to 

sunset with seasonal 

closings posted on the 

website: grasslandbirdtrust.org. 

Guided tours, educational events, 

and volunteer opportunities will be 

scheduled year-round at the Grassland 

Bird Trust’s property. Visit the website 

for announcements of events! I suggest 

bringing binoculars, cameras, and a bottle 

of water to enhance your experience. 

The parking area and viewing area are 

accessible to all, including wheelchair 

access to the viewing area. 

Winter enthusiasts who enjoy citizen 

science might also want to attend GBT’s 

winter raptor surveys, held approximately 

every two weeks during the winter. This 

is when raptors are counted under the 

guidance of expert guides and educators. 

If you’re interested in joining these events, 

contact: info@grasslandbirdtrust.org. 

While it can be cold in the winter, the 

grasslands in winter are a special place. If 

you want to spend a more extended time

there with expert guides, the Grassland 

Bird Trust hosts two three-day Winter 

Raptor Tours every year. The 2025 

tours will be offered February 7-9 or 

February 10-12. The tours include 

lodging at the Queensbury Hotel in 

Glens Falls. Meals are at locally owned

NON-MEDICATED LIFE 

Potential Benefits of 

Advanced Cholesterol 

Testing, PART ONE 

By Paul E. Lemanski, 

MD, MS, FACP 

Medicines are a mainstay of 

American life and the healthcare 

system not only because they are 

perceived to work by the individuals 

taking them, but also because their 

benefit may be shown by the objective 

assessment of scientific study. Clinical 

research trials have shown that some 

of the medicines of Western science 

may reduce the risk of Type 2 diabetes, 

heart attacks, strokes, cardiovascular 

death and even some cancers. 

In the first 117 installments of the 

Non-Medicated Life, a healthy diet and 

lifestyle has been shown to accomplish 

naturally for the majority of individuals 

most of the benefits of medications in 

the prevention of the chronic medical 

conditions mentioned above. In 

order to maximize the benefit of lifestyle 

changes it is best to first establish 

a baseline of laboratory tests of 

so called “surrogate markers” of risk. 

Markers such as fasting blood sugar, 

Hgb a1c, total cholesterol, HDL (the 

good cholesterol) and LDL (the bad 

cholesterol) and Triglycerides (blood 

fats) are routinely followed serially to 

determining increasing or decreasing 

risk. After a discussion with your primary 

care physician or cardiologist 

additional testing may be helpful. 

“Advanced” cholesterol testing such 

as High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein 

(HS-CRP), Apolipoprotein B (Apo B), 

Trimethylamine-N Oxide (TMAO), 

and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance 

LipoProfile (NMR LipoProfile) may 

offer additional identification of risk 

and when measured serially may help 

direct and refine lifestyle choices. In 

this two-part article, Part One will 

address the first two advanced tests, 

Part Two the remaining advanced tests. 

HS-CRP (cardiac CRP) is a mark- 

Editor’s Note: This is the 118th in a 

series on optimal diet and lifestyle 

to help prevent and treat disease. 

Any planned change in diet, exercise 

or treatment should be discussed 

with and approved by your personal 

physician before implementation. The 

help of a registered dietitian in the 

implementation of dietary changes is 

strongly recommended. 

er of inflammation. Atherosclerosis (literally, 

athero equals artery, sclerosis 

equals stiffening), the hallmark of arterial 

disease-and the cause of heart attacks 

and strokes-occurs as a consequence of 

inflammation. LDL (the bad) cholesterol 

normally exists as spherical particles in 

the blood and, generally, when the concentration 

is low atherosclerosis risk is 

low. However, when excess LDL cholesterol 

is produced, it penetrates the arterial 

wall, where it forms a structure called 

a plaque. A decreased consumption of 

the natural antioxidants in vegetables 

and fruit results in the LDL in the plaque 

becoming oxidized (Ox-LDL). Ox-LDL is 

recognized by the immune system as nonself 

and is attacked by specialized white 

blood cells called macrophages. Literally, 

it is the infiltration of macrophages into 

the plaque that causes the plaque to 

become inflamed setting up the conditions 

for a heart attack or a stroke. 

In most non-acutely ill individuals 

HS-CRP measures the inflammation 

caused by the process of atherosclerosis. 

Unfortunately, if someone were to 

be acutely ill with a cold or flu this could 

cause the HS-CRP to be elevated as well. 

It is, therefore, best to measure when you 

are not acutely ill and if elevated it is best 

to remeasure a second time, the lowest 

value generally being the most accurate 

measure of risk. Individuals with other 

inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid 

arthritis and inflammatory bowel 

disease may not use the test to indicate 

cardiac risk. Physicians may use HS-CRP 

to determine whether medication is 

needed in individuals at an intermediate 

level of cardiovascular risk as determined 

by the American Heart Association and 

American College of Cardiology risk calculator 

(tools.acc.org/ldl/ascvd_risk_estimator). 

Elevated HS-CRP values greater 

than 3.0mg/dl generally indicate higher 

risk, 1-3mg/dl moderate risk, and less 

than 1.0mg/dl lower risk. 

How does an individual lower HS-CRP 

with lifestyle changes? Daily aerobic exercise, 

increasing the consumption of vegetables 

and fruit, and the consumption 

of whole grains as with a Mediterranean 

diet, increasing consumption of omega-3 

and omega-9 oils (olive), and decreasing 

consumption of omega-6 oils, avoiding an 

excess of simple sugars, losing weight when 

overweight, and stopping smoking, all will 

help lower HS-CRP. The benefit of the test is 

that it provides you a quantitative measure 

of the benefit of such lifestyle changes. 

Apo B is another advanced marker of 

cardiovascular risk and in clinical trials 

proves a better predictor of risk that the 

more widely used LDL (bad) cholesterol. 

In part, this is because while a major contributor 

to risk for most individuals, LDL 

is only one of several plaque forming particles 

including more rare species called 

intermediate density lipoprotein (IDL) 

and chylomicron remnants (CR). In part, 

it is because LDL particles come in different 

sizes that carry different levels of risk. 

LDL exists as particles of varied sizes, 

some particles being smaller, some medium 

sized, and some larger. The relative 

number of particles of different sizes 

approximate a bell curse in normal individuals, 

with medium size particles at the 

central portion of the bell curve predominating. 

Individuals at higher risk have 

proportionately more numerous smaller 

particles and fewer medium size and large 

particles- at the same total level of LDL. 

Moreover, the smaller LDL particles are 

more likely to form a plaque because they 

more easily penetrate between the cells 

that line the artery walls to get deeper layers 

where plaque accumulates. Thus, an 

LDL equal to 100 mg/dl may be achieved 

by more numerous smaller particles or 

fewer larger particles and routine testing 

does not differentiate between the two. 

Because a single apo B molecule is found 

in each atherogenic particle regardless of 

size, a measure of apo B gives an accurate 

measure of all atherogenic particles, 

including LDL as well as IDL and CR. 

Unfortunately, apo B is a significantly 

more expensive test than LDL, and may 

not be covered by insurance. However, 

a close approximation of apo B derived 

risk may be gleaned from a normal, 

inexpensive lipid profile by calculating 

the non-HDL cholesterol. Indeed, 

the National Cholesterol Education 

Program (NCEP) guideline recommends 

using the non-HDL cholesterol 

as a secondary target of treatment after 

LDL. In short, the non-HDL cholesterol 

equals the total cholesterol – the 

HDL (good) cholesterol. Thus, the 

total minus the good yields what’s bad 

and this would include all bad species 

of particles including LDL, IDL and 

CR. NCEP recommends a non-HDL 

cholesterol 30mg/dl higher than LDL 

target. Thus, for example, if you had a 

heart attack, the LDL target would be 

50-70mg/dl and the non-HDL target 

would be 80-100mg/dl. 

How do you lower apo B or the 

non-HDL cholesterol using lifestyle? 

The two most powerful ways would be 

weight loss, if overweight, and daily 

aerobic exercise. The benefit of this test 

is that it provides you a quantitative 

measure of the benefit of such lifestyle 

changes. 

In summary, in most individuals 

the standard lipid profile provides 

important information in calculating 

an individual’s global cardiovascular 

risk. More recently, “advanced” cholesterol 

testing has become available 

to further refine the calculation of risk. 

HS-CRP and apo B are two markers of 

cardiovascular risk that may help in 

this regard. Beginning with a baseline, 

serial measures may allow a quantitative 

measure of the benefit of lifestyle 

changes, and serve as both useful feedback 

and an aid in 

sustaining such 

changes. Look to 

Part Two (January 

2025) for a discussion 

of two additional 

“advanced” 

tests, TMAO and 

NMR LipoProfile.

WITH TEAM CAPTAIN PETE ROWELL 

AT THE UALBANY TRACK. 

By Paul Grondahl 

On a raw and windy Saturday morning, 

a shirtless Nick Conway – sinewy 

and tattooed, shoulder-length 

sandy hair billowing – sprinted around 

the University at Albany track like his life 

depended on it. In a way, perhaps it did. 

Once an elite distance runner who made 

his mark by winning numerous road 

races around the Capital Region in the 

early 2000s, he clocked a series of PRs, as 

he approached his 30th birthday. 

“I felt stronger, faster and healthier 

than at any time in my life,” he said. And 

then the bottom fell out of his running 

world. 

Without warning, Nick’s super-fit body 

betrayed him. Something suddenly went 

haywire in his central nervous system. He 

was plunged into severe, chronic pain. “I 

went from getting a PR in the 5K (14:27) 

and mile (4:04) to not being able to bend 

over to tie my shoes,” he recalled of the 

mysterious disease that began to debilitate 

him in 2005. 

I saw Nick at a road race in his glory 

days. He was quick, graceful and fluid. 

Years later, I noticed him at the Guilderland 

Y after he was stricken. He grimaced and 

shuffled in slow motion from the locker 

room to the sauna like a guy in his 90s. 

It was heartbreaking. “My low point was 

having to ask strangers to tie my shoes,” 

he said. 

He consulted doctors and specialists 

around the state, across the country, and 

in Europe. There was no shortage of theories, 

from multiple sclerosis to fibromyalgia 

to chronic fatigue syndrome. The tests 

were inconclusive. It was baffling. 

He spent a small fortune on doctors, 

medications and treatments. Nothing 

worked. The torment went on for more 

than 15 years. “I went to some dark, 

dark places,” he said. He pleaded that he 

wouldn’t wake up in the morning. 

Nicholas Conway did not set out 

to become an elite distance runner. At 

Guilderland High School, he played var-


sity soccer and lacrosse. He was sneaky 

fast. Friends and coaches urged him to 

try out for the track team. “I wanted no 

part of long-distance running. It sounded 

miserable,” said Nick, who gives off the 

vibe of a laid-back surfer dude, a cross 

between Matthew McConaughey and 

Owen Wilson. 

The lobbying convinced Nick to run 

track in his junior and senior years of high 

school, and then at Union College, where 

he competed in track and cross country 

while majoring in mathematics. “I loved 

that it was fun and low-key at Union and 

we created a community,” he said. 

Eventually, Nick’s clinicians coalesced 

around prolonged Lyme disease, which 

can be hard to diagnose. He has gotten 

some relief from weekly sessions 

with Wayne Hogan, a chiropractor in 

Mechanicville, who incorporates kinesiology 

and herbalism. Nick immerses himself 

in saunas, cryotherapy chambers and 

sensory deprivation float tanks – along 

with a healthy, so-called “clean” diet. To 

remain healthy from the disease and stay 

fit for racing, Nick has diversified his training 

with swimming and taking spinning 

and hot yoga classes. 

Nick’s cocktail of therapies has helped 

him manage the symptoms. Perhaps the 

most important element in his recovery 

has been a gradual return to running and 

discovering a supportive community with 

the Albany Running Exchange’s racing 

team. 

“I started my comeback with baby 

steps,” said Nick. His brother-in-law, 

Louie DiNuzzo, convinced him to run a 

charity race for Louie’s mother, who died 

of cancer. “I was just grateful to be out 

there again,” he said. 

In 2023, Nick met Jack Huber, 23, of 

Bethlehem, a standout distance runner 

at Bethlehem High School and Michigan 

State University. They became fast friends 

and trained together. (I work with Jack’s 

father, Mike, at the New York State Writers 

Institute.) 

“Everyone loves Nick. He’s full of life 

and always positive,” Jack said. 

They ran together four or five times a 

week throughout last winter. Their relaxing 

runs are 13 to 15 miles on the trails of 

Peebles Island State Park in Cohoes. Their 

harder workouts on the UAlbany track 

involve five one-mile sprints at a subfive-minute 

pace, with a 60-second break 

between intervals. 

“The workouts Nick can do are unbelievable,” 

Jack said. “Nobody is forcing us 

to be here. We do it for the love of running 

and to push ourselves to the edge.” 

Jack and Nick have formed a brotherhood 

around the ethos of the quest to 

shave seconds off their PRs. Nick expresses 

gratitude for their tight-knit group 

which also includes Vin Aceto, Drew 

Burns, Matt Cavaliere, Marty Dolan, 

Ricardo Estremera, and Pete Rowell, who 

have been pushing and supporting each 

other. 

Training with Nick is bringing out the 

best in Jack. As an example, he won an 

invitational 800-meter race at UAlbany – 

after battling strong headwinds and chilly 

temperatures – in 1:52, just a second off 

his best time. 

It’s paying off. At the 2024 Stockadeathon 

15K in Schenectady on November 

▲ WITH NIECE CECE, 

LIZZY (SIS), MOM GRACE, 

LOUIE, NIECE DAPHNE, 

AND NEPHEW LIL LOUIE. 

10, Jack came in third overall, while Nick 

finished 11th overall and second in the 

Male Masters in 48:57. In addition, Nick 

also had the race’s top age-graded score at 

92.34%, a “world-class” 15K performance. 

“Intense workouts and races help 

me push past the pain and make me feel 

strong and free again,” Nick said. 

“The ARE team camaraderie is the 

best part,” said Pete, 35, the racing team’s 

captain and a 2012 UAlbany grad who ran 

track for the Great Danes. “Running at this 

level is no fun by yourself. It’s so much better 

with this group and the positive energy 

Nick brings.” 

The Albany Running Exchange was 

formed in 2002 and has more than 1,000 

members of all ages and ability levels. On 

Tuesday nights at the UAlbany track, it’s 

not unusual for more than 100 members 

to show up, creating a festive atmosphere. 

The group credits the friendly, inclusive 

vibe created by UAlbany’s legendary track 

and field coach Roberto Vives, entering 

his 40th year with the program, whose 

mantra is “Do the incredible.” 

Nick takes Roberto’s motto at face 

value. At 49, told he’d never run again, 

Nick’s keeping pace with elite runners half 

his age. Jack is pushing Nick to try to beat 

US records for grand-master status, when 

he turns 50 next year, in the 800 meters 

(1:59) and the mile (4:19). 

“I think those are within his reach if 

he keeps training at this level,” said Jack, 

whose goal is to run a sub-four-minute 

mile, which Nick thinks is within Jack’s 

reach. 

Nick’s tattoos reflect his deep love 

of hip-hop music since childhood. He

AND JACK HUBER AFTER THE 

STOCKADE-ATHON 15K. 

teaches his popular hip-hop course at 

Yale University in person once a week, 

and online at UAlbany and Trinity College 

(Conn.). He also draws from his background 

in math by tutoring math and science 

on the side. Nick credits his flexible 

schedule which allows for training at a 

high level. 

“Nick has a relaxed, loose running 

style, which matches his personality,” Jack 

said. “He’s always the first to go shirtless 

on the track and he glides out there. He 

taught me to live for the moment.” 

“Jack and I developed an intense bond 

by pushing ourselves to the limit and this 

is the best running community on the 

planet,” Nick said. “I’m filled with gratitude 

to be able to run like this again.” He 

also shares his gratitude for the guys in the 

training group who push each other and 

genuinely support each other. 

“Nick has so much charisma,” said 

Matt Cavaliere, 22, a med student at SUNY 

Upstate Medical University in Syracuse. 

He ran track with Jack at Bethlehem High 

and competed collegiately at Binghamton. 

“Nick and Jack are why I drive all the way 

out here to train.”
