The Staten Island Ferry system’s concession stands are set to reopen for the first time since the onset of Covid-19 in 2020 with coffee and donuts from the Massachusetts-based chain Dunkin. The city announced Monday that it’s awarded the company a 10-year contract to sell refreshments on the system’s signature orange fleet that transports 15 million riders annually. Under the lease, Dunkin will launch its operation within 60 days of its Nov. 20 contract signing. The agreement also allows for alcohol to be sold on the ferries, but Dunkin is still in the midst of procuring the necessary permits to sell beer, according to the Department of Transportation. The chain is expected to initially operate stands inside two ferry boats, the Staff Sergeant Michael H. Ollis and the Dorothy Day. Additional stalls will be later added to the rest of the fleet.

Lifelong runner Rob Simmelkjaer may be the chief executive of the New York Road Runners, the nonprofit best known for putting on the TCS New York City Marathon, but he admits that running a marathon is somewhat out of his comfort zone. Simmelkjaer’s ideal race distance is a 10K, not the grueling 26.2 miles that make up a marathon, but that preference didn’t stop him from challenging himself to run the New York City marathon twice, first in 1997 and then again in 2013 (coming in 16 minutes faster than his first time). That was well before he took over the helm at the New York Road Runners in late 2022. “I joke around that then I was running the marathon; now I’m, in quote marks, running the marathon, like in charge of it,” said Simmelkjaer. “Sometimes I can’t believe that I’m doing this, and other times I look at it and [feel as if] everything did seemingly lead up to this.” Read the full interview from reporter Caroline Spivack: https://lnkd.in/grR2SHuw
