Two clubs, two singlets, two cities, together!
WRC wishes to voice a solidarity that is louder than bombs, by continuing to participate in the sport we love, exercised within a kind of free and open society that we require. So, as far as this upcoming weekend goes, here are four things which WRC is doing. Please join us. Continue reading
From our friend, Samia Akbar at the Clarendon Pacers:
“I just wanted to extend an invite to you and everyone else at the Washington Running Club to the Nike Women’s Half Prep-Rally put on by Pacers happening Thursday, April 11th. This event will be held at the Clarendon location at 7pm. We’ll have plenty of delicious food, sweet treats, giveaways, fashion shows, specials on Nike apparel, a DJ etc!!! It’s going to be a super fun atmosphere so please feel free to stop in and bring friends. This open to everyone, people training for the race and new runners alike.”
I am thinking we gather at American Tap Room (map) afterwards? Should be fun for all!
It’s officially spring and our highly accurate weather forecasters are predicting chilly temperatures. Regardless, spring racing season is heating up and it’s a perfect time to gather to discuss Grand Prix strategy at Capitol City Brewing Company (1100 New York Avenue NW, D.C. 20005) from 6 – 8 p.m. I’ll see you there!
Kit, Michaela, and Carla are going to make sure the movie, Town of Runners, is a success. We are working hard on getting this off the ground. Michaela already has lots of good suggestions from her contacts at Georgetown. If anyone has ideas for a place to screen the movie, please let us know. We are looking for a spot in Georgetown, hopefully, for a screening on Saturday afternoon, April 27th.
This should coincide nicely with lots of hoopla surrounding the Nike Women’s Half Marathon the next day.
We’re here from Freyvogel central, and eating up everything in sight!
That’s all for now, folks. Enjoy the new website!
This is what we were up to all along!
We need you and your nominations for club officers and club awards!
