Jorts Mile

[RandMart]

You heard it here first!!! (unless it popped up in your Substack feed as well)

Andrew Chen on Substack

“Last night 3sixteen put on our inaugural Jorts Mile: a one mile unsanctioned race through downtown NYC to be run exclusively in 100% cotton jorts. We wanted to put a community event together where people could have fun getting ridiculous fits off and have a good time, but serious runners showed up (Men’s winner clocked a 4:30, women’s 5:11 - in jorts.)”

The photographer did a pretty good job, too

Only a mile? pffft. Make it as long as they need to start chafing. Last one to bleed wins.

Yes, multiple loops around the block - like Sri Chinmoy Marathon - would provide ample entertainment within a confined downtown NYC area

It pains me to learn that this race took place down the street and around the corner from 315 Bowery, aka the space formerly known as CBGB

Gotta admit I am a little disappointed. When I saw the thread title, I envisioned something more like this:

When I hear “Jorts,” I immediately go to Kevin Smith
