The Puma Street Meet
Sunday, April 26, 1-6pm

Who: Everyone. Street Meet is free and open to the public. (Of course, you might want to bring your wallet so you can enjoy some Jamaican food, buy a t-shirt, or bet your friends that you can run faster than 17 miles per hour.)

What: Street Meet is a fun and unique running event dropped in the middle of a Jamaican street carnival. There will be open events in which anyone can participate, followed by the main events, which pit the fastest from Jamaica against the fastest from Boston and New York. If you're one of the fastest people in an "open" event, you'll advance to the "main" events. (See Event Details)

When: Sunday, April 26, 1-6pm. Open events begin promptly at 1:00 and will end at 4:00. Entry into these events is on a first come, first serve basis, so don't roll down at 3:00 thinking you'll cruise into the final. The main events will start at approximately 4:30.

Where: 100 Northern Ave, Boston

Why: Because Usain Bolt wants to see how fast you are. (And because there's good music, tasty food, Puma City, beautiful views of the city, five Jamaican Olympians, and fun and exciting races.)

PumaRunning.com - The man from Jamaica

The highlight of Street Meet - the man himself. And I’m not talking about Bob Marley. Although you could hear his beat pounding all day. No it was Usain Bolt. The guy is awesome. Charismatic. Outgoing. Friendly. Talking to everyone. Signing autographs. Kissing babies. Seriously - the guy was mobbed by his fans. And he loved it. All while surrounded by his “security team.”

The winners of the day’s main events were awarded their prizes—signed jerseys and Puma shoes—from the human lightning bolt himself. Below with Street K co-winners Robby Andrews and Brett Johnson.
