Do you love the runner's high? Are you looking for a group of friends who can help motivate you? This is a group for people who struggle to hit the pavement, but are always glad they did in the end. If you already run more than 5 miles a day, you are disqualified from this club. We will meet every Monday and Wednesday at 5pm to SLOWLY work towards a 5K race. The plan is to run/walk 3.1 miles each time. Each week we will run more and walk less. Naturally, a regular happy hour will follow practice for those who can make it.

Hi everyone-

Here is the location for the run:

There are several listed there. I am looking at the Scenic 5 Miler. Since we hate running we won't run the whole 5 miles. We can modify it by starting and ending near the Rosslyn Metro stop on Clarendon. Read more

      “I really want to find out if I love to run - especially outdoors. Was only used to treadmill. It sure gets you in shape -- but I need that motivation and I like the group's explanation of 'easing' into it.”
