5-Time King Of The Sand


I missed any Penn State Track Alums at the Sea Isle City Beach Run this year, but elsewhere on the sands of the Garden State, others were working hard.

Michael Syrnick won his 5th 2-Mile Beach Run at the Dutch Hoffman Memorial Lifeguard Championships in Wildwood. 


Mike Syrnick, a 13-year Wildwood lifeguard, edged Upper Township’s Jake Davis by two seconds to win the beach run. It was Syrnick’s second straight win in the race and fifth of his career. He won three straight times from 2007 through 2009.
“As you get older, you think maybe you’ve lost a step or that you can’t keep up with the younger guys, so it’s nice that I’ve been able to win this the last two years,” said Syrnick, a former Penn State University distance runner.
