Meet Jud Santos. Jud is the founder of Adobo Social and Anti-Social Athletic Club.
On this running route, we’ll explore Roosevelt Island, Astoria, and Woodside, Queens through the perspective of Jud. Queens is one of the most culturally diverse areas in the world and Jud takes us on a run through the borough ending in what’s affectionately known as Little Manila to discover the rich Filipino community in Woodside.
You can start this journey and exploration of Queens by taking the F train to Roosevelt Island, the NYC Ferry’s Astoria route to Roosevelt Island, or the Roosevelt Island Tramway.
