Many thanks to everyone who made Vax to Flax a memorable race this year! From the cold and rainy weather, to a bloody chin and a pulled calf muscle, to the response of 6 emergency vehicles after the race–the tradition of this race between students and faculty and staff lives on! Despite the rain, there was a solid number of runners, with faculty/staff edging out the victory over the students this year! Before Vax to Flax, several SoMAS faculty and students participated in the Run for the Ridley in Riverhead, an annual event by one of our partners, the NY Marine Rescue Center.
