This group is for those who want to get into running, or are trying to get back into the ol' routine.

Goal of this Meetup is not to compete; rather, it is to have fun as well as socializing while running (in groups or pairs) and to improve ones cardiovascular fitness. Our running get together will concentrate on increasing our running distance, and not increasing ones speed (although that may be a positive side affect of our regular runs). For the time being, runs will be scheduled during weekdays, after office hours (around 5:30pm to 6:30pm).


Disclaimer: Anyone with serious medical conditions such as history of heart problems must exercise under the direct supervision of his/her physician. Attendees to this Meetup must be at a somewhat healthy level, and be able to run at the most a 8-12 minute mile (if you can run faster than 8 minutes-more power to ya and give us pointers!!).

Where?

Berkeley, CA 94710
Who’s coming?
3 Yes / 3 Maybe

Want to attend?

We will meet at the Seabreeze Deli on the corner of University Ave and Frontage Road (they have a dirt parking lot, so I will be there by my car); where we will stretch, loosen up, and start our run on Frontage Road. We will start out slow...9-12 minute mile run.

No one will get left behind as I will be the "sweeper" and will run with the slowest person if the majority of folks have a faster momentum. Read more

 People are social and running is healthy. Running is not just good but good for you. We are social creatures and this is a social group.
