Good Bad & The Monkey
Has anybody belonged to a running club? Why did you join? Was it for social reasons or training, or both? I notice some running clubs offer discounts on race fees & in some retail stores. Do you/did you find joining a club worthwhile?
I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.

I belong to a local running club. They organize a lot of training runs and have a useful (and sometimes not-so-useful) message board which are free to the community. But I like to support those who support me and the fee is $18 per year (cheap). When you join, you get discounts in local running stores (one pair of shoes can cover the cost), a newsletter and a few events during the year for runners only. They also have a program in which you volunteer at a couple of races and then get to run one for free.
When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

Not a member of a club----yet. I hope to find one when I am convinced that I won't quit running, this time. Anyone know of a club in Bucks County PA???
