Run Group on weekends.

[Mark]

There is a new group that just started meeting up every weekend to run. The distance is 5 miles right now but I am sure that will alternate in the future. It is great preparation for the Gusher Marathon in May http://thegushermarathon.com/ . Right now we meet at Exygon in Beaumont on Saturdays but there is talk about doing the runs on Sundays to avoid conflicting schedules with the cyclists.

Today was my first run with them and I really enjoyed it. The group accommodates pretty much all different paces. There are some people that run/walk and we averaged about an 8:15 pace. Hopefully they will get a Sunday group going and I will try to attend almost all of them.

A big :thumbsup: goes to Exygon for getting this together. I got to walk around there today and that place is REALLY nice!!

I'd be down to try it but my endurance running isn't very great ahha.
I can sprint pretty well, but long distance isn't my thing.
I can barely do a straight mile run! Lols.

its in your mind. Want me to prove it... ill go get some crazed rabid animal to chase you. I think you will make it past the 1/4 mark.

If I am in Beaumont over the weekend when this is going on I will run with you guys.

it is on Saturday mornings right now at 8am. If you ever need anyone to run with just pm me and we can try to meet up :thumbsup:

Updated!!! They decided to change this to Sundays so that it does not conflict with the cycling group on Saturdays! Woo Hoo!

had a pretty good turnout today, next week there may be a rep from brooks to possibly sponsor us!
