57th polar bear races - tradition stays alive!

To All,

Attached please find the RESULTS of the 57th Asbury Park Polar Bear 5k Run.  As you know, this year was much different from the other 56 editions of the race due to COVID restrictions, but we were able to keep the tradition going as the oldest road race on the Jersey Shore, one which has never been canceled. Ironically, the eighteen participants was not much less than the number who ran in the first ever Polar Bear in 1964.

I especially want to thank all of the runners who turned out on a chilly morning, and Walter, Elliott and John Kuhi for helping to manage the event.  Some of you who have been attending the event  for many years like Elliott (the event founder in 1964) , John and Phil Hinck know that the event has been held from sub-zero up to eighty degree weather, in rain and snow storms, and ice covered boards, but it has always been held.  Hopefully, in 2021 we will be back up to the 500 plus Polar Bear runners that Erin was able to attract in 2019.

Happy New Year.

Harry Nolan
