It’s once again time for Washington Running Club to give back to some of the awesome places through which we run!
Club member and Outreach and Community Events Officer, Michaela Corr, is working to identify the best opportunity for WRCers to lend a hand and do some crosstraining at the Dumbarton Oaks Park in Georgetown.
If you want to help keep one of the prettier places where we go running looking its very best, start by letting Michaela know when you’re available, via her dandy DOODLE. We’ll only participate in this once, but click on all the dates you are free to help lend a hand.

Club Singlets: Available Now, Visible Everywhere

Will Cotton’s “Cupcake Katy” (2010) went on view at the National Portrait Gallery, but not without some local finishing touches.
Our store has finally reopened to take your pre-orders for club racing singlets! One American songbird, Katy Perry, already received hers and wore it out to the National Portrait Gallery (June 18 – July 6)! artnet News has another view of Katy’s NPG selfie.
So WRC members: place your orders, and we’ll have you suited for our own sweet sport.

Aside
ONE WEEK AWAY:
Sunday Distance Run—Time Change to 7:00 a.m.
The summer heat and humidity is planning to hold off for another week, so in an effort to beat the heat, we will start our Sunday Distance Run an hour earlier, effective Sunday, June 8, 2014. The 7 a.m. start time will be in effect through August 31st, as reflected on WRC’s calendar.
Official Club Certificate, 2014 edition
Here it is. Also this. And a dash of this. We’re Ready to Roll!
Absolutely Fabulous
- Shock!
- And awe!
The custom singlets (and their owners) got lots of attention, fetching compliments along the various training routes followed by the dozens of runners convening on this perfect morning.
Our thanks go to Rachel Clattenburg for designing and ordering everything, and also to Pactimo for all their good work.
Pending enough demonstrated interest, we can place another round of orders with relatively quick turnaround. If this interests you, please petition el Prez, Kirk Masterson, and let him know.
