    ENDURE – Last Man Standing is a Long Island endurance running event using a Last Man Standing format. Runners complete a fixed 4.2-mile loop every hour, on the hour. Finish the loop within the hour, and you earn the chance to start again. Miss the cutoff or decide you’re done, and your race ends. The event continues until one runner remains or the event time window concludes. To amp things up, every few hours we will lower the time cut-off.

    The course will use designated park trails and/or park roads with a centralized start and finish area and aid station. Exact venue and course details will be shared once park permits are finalized.

    Joe Keany was a 1986 graduate of Miller Place who distinguished himself in both cross country and track. When he was a child, his mother was told by doctors that he would never be an athlete because he had problems with his feet. Well, that didn't stop Joe, during his high school years he discovered running, and it became the passion of his life. He ran cross country, indoor and outdoor Track. He became captain and received All County and All Conference honors. He went on to run competitively at Cortland State University. He was regarded by his competitors as a tough competitor who would never quit. His teammates had said he was an excellent training partner and a compassionate friend. He passed away suddenly at the age of 28 from a brain aneurysm. Joe would be overjoyed to see all the runners and walkers of all ages and abilities take the time on a June morning and celebrate fitness, friendship, competition, family and friends.
