    Does one exist? I can't seem to find one and am surprised. I know there's Mile Loggers, but I'd like an even more pointed 1HR one. Anyone? Would anyone be interested if such a thing were started?

      I'm not really sure what you mean by one hour runner - what would the criteria be to join? You have to run one hour a day? Or every run you do has to be exactly one hour?
