Our Story
Goldfinger Track Club (GFTC) was founded in 2016 by Jerry Francois. What began as a track team that was formed to be one of the fastest in New York, has evolved to be one of the most welcoming, supportive, and familial groups of runners out there. Jerry created GFTC to not only celebrate individuals and their athletic accomplishments, but also to be a group of runners that serve the community around them.

Who We Are.
GFTC is group of folks coming from a multitude of different backgrounds, professions, and parts of the city. We welcome members from all five Boroughs, and even more parts of the country / world. “Diverse, But Not Divided” is a mindset that Jerry and the rest of the team do their best to live out at each run, track workout, or event. Regardless of how experienced or how “fast” of a runner you are, you’re welcome here.
Our Vision
Historically, running is a sport that is mainly concerned with the finish line - the results. The constant answering of the question of “Did you hit your goal?” Don’t get us wrong, we love PR’s as much as anyone, but GFTC is all about the journey to the finish line. Goldfinger Track Club is growing, and we’re looking for folks that are hungry to grow, learn, and build community with us. You’ll also get faster, too. Come out and see what the Gold Vibes are all about…
