An Athlete Directed Team
Our team is filled with a wide range of athletes from 23-74 years young. Team members are spread across New York, from Delmar to Lake Placid. Our team is not only made up of great runners, we are also diverse in talents including cross country and downhill skiing, triathloning, curling, coaching, and raising chickens, all while holding full-time careers and/or taking care of families.
Willow Street Athletic Club (WSAC) is a USATF ADK club that began in 2000 to bring together and support runners in the Capital Region of New York who train and compete at a high level, locally and nationally. WSAC strives to bring like minded runners together to develop and grow individual talent as well as assemble competitive teams while fostering friendships. We endeavor to support each other in all seasons of life.
