The big jump

A couple months ago I had a conversation with a friend of mine about some thoughts I was having on one of my training runs. I was telling her that I had all these "ideas" about what to do with this blog, the group on facebook (Martin Runners--if you are interested) and the like but I was reminding myself that I don't have time to put into all the ideas I was having. She told me that she had been thinking about the same sort of things but didn't know about promoting it and where to get the people--looked like we each found what the other was missing. Seemed the time was right to get serious about this. Through several conversations, this is what we have come up with:

On Thursday, June 30th, we will be meeting at the CE Weldon Library at 6:30 to talk about what people in Weakley County would like from a running club. We want to appeal to every kind of runner--those who have run to the grocery store to those who have run marathons. We would love to see people of Weakley Country become healthier. For those who haven't ever run but have thought about it, we'd love to have you! For those who consistently run all the races around town and then travel to run others, we'd love to have you! We'd love to see those who have been running encourage those who are just starting out. We want to educate and encourage those who are starting out and challenge those who have been running awhile. Most importantly, we want to know what you want in a running club so please join us on the 30th. Bring your friends, neighbors, thoughts, questions, ideas, comments, etc and we'll see what we can do together.
