Reminder: Fun Run and Track Workouts

Fun Run & Track Workouts in March!

Fun Run on March 24th at 4pm

We are starting a new tradition of monthly fun runs to encourage new members to experience WRC and to enjoy an easy run together. This month we will meet at 4pm on March 27th in front of the Lululemon Athletica store on P St NW between 14th and 15th streets. Remember to bring friends and join us for a shorter version of our Sunday long runs! Spread the word to friends who are looking for training partners and a great run group!

Weekly Track Workouts on Tuesday

This is a reminder that weekly track workouts are being held at Cardozo High School (13th St & Florida St NW) every Tuesday at 6:45am. Until our new website gets up and running, we’ll send out the track workouts for the week via email. Please contact Amanda Hamilton (amandajanehamilton@gmail.com) to be put on the track workout email list, or if you have any questions about the Cardozo High School track. We hope to see you there for some repeats!

Spring 2010 Track Workouts

Spring 2010 Track Workouts March 2010

Hello WRC Members!

Thank you to all that responded to the track workout survey. The Cardozo High School track won with a small margin over American University track. Thus, the official WRC track workout will be at Cardozo High School on Tuesday mornings at 6:45 am. Cardozo High School is located at 13th St NW and Florida St NW (link).

We encourage WRC members who expressed a strong interest in continuing track workouts at American University to take the lead in hosting an alternate track workout at American. We’ll be more than happy to help facilitate that process, and to put the alternate track information on the redesigned website.

We’ll be holding our first track workout at Cardozo on Tuesday, March 16, 2010. Until our new website gets up and running, we’ll send out the track workouts for the week via email. Please contact Amanda Hamilton (amandajanehamilton@gmail.com) to be put on the track workout email list, or if you have any questions about the Cardozo High School track.

Thanks!
Amanda
