New Docu-Series, 'We Run New York,' Emerges

Teased out for the first time last week, a new series focused on running within the NYC Metro area is underway with production.  Directed by Harry McFann, a former runner at Columbia, the series aims to provide a look at the smaller intricacies of the running scene.  Find out more below from their website, and check them out on twitter @RunNewYorkShow

We Run New York is a docu-series centered around the unlikely convergence of the sport of running, and the City of New York. We'll share the previously untold stories of the dedicated people who pursue something they love, in an environment seemingly inhospitable to it. From Olympians, to those running their first miles, We Run New York aims to capture the uniqueness of life in New York, especially as it pertains to runners.

The Stories

Our goal is to highlight the more humble and unassuming qualities of each episode's subject matter, e.g. the daily routine and struggle of a runner in an environment inhospitable to one, rather than focusing on just flashy success stories.  More than anything else, it is the humanity of running that we want to examine, and explore the different reasons people are drawn to running.
