Description: We are a noncompetitive long distance running club that is open to runners of all levels. Our goal is to promote health and fitness through running while also building meaningful relationships. If you are interested in running and have never run before this is a great place for a friendly introduction to running and lots of encouragement. However, if you are an experienced runner this is also a great place for you come and get connected with other runners across campus.

For Spring term 2011, we will be meeting on Tuesday afternoons at 4:15pm and on Saturday mornings at 9:30am. The meeting place for both practices is the same: bottom of the Stephen Epler Building which is located behind Hoffman Hall and by the Meetro Cafe (street address: 12th and Montgomery).

Tuesday Practices are done in a work-out style geared towards increasing runner's speed and strength. Thus, the practices will either consists of workouts done on the track or on hills. On the other hand, Saturday practices are usually longer runs that are either done along trails or on a paved pathway. For these runs, everyone will participate on the same run but will be divided up into their different mile pace groups.
