We’ve added some morning runs to the group schedule~

Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings at 7:15 am, meet at Below The Knee.

Tuesday & Thursday mornings, meet at Country’s on Broadway – in uptown Columbus – for a longer run on the Riverwalk.

We still have the Wednesday evening run (6:30 pm) and the Saturday morning run at 6:00 am.  Please email Mike or call the store (706-322-3552) if you have any questions!

Our Saturday running group will continue to meet at 6am at the National Infantry Museum bus turnout… and the mid-week running group will meet Wednesdays at 6:30pm at the Manchester Expressway Burger King (across from Peachtree Mall). We will probably add some morning runs very soon. Contact Mike or call the store for more information.

Our goal with the running groups is to make everyone, beginner and advanced runner alike, feel welcome. We started this summer with runners varying from a 7:00 long run pace  to a 13:00 long run pace, and everything in between. Even with summer temperatures sometimes in the mid-80′s at 6am, we were an enthusiastic group of runners!  Lots of fun and now we are closing in on the Marine Corps Marathon, Soldier Marathon in Columbus and the Chickamauga Marathon.

After the Soldier Marathon/Chickamauga, our next group running event focus will be the Snickers Marathon Bar Marathon & Half Marathon on March 5, 2011.

After a lot of searching and testing, we’ve settled on some really great compression socks from Swiftwick . We’re carrying the socks in men’s and women’s sizes, both white and black. These socks are perfect for runs, walking, and recovery- plus, they’re made in the USA not far from Georgia.
