Welcome Darryle - our newest club member.  That’s 89 club members.  20  to 40  people show up on a typical run night - splitting into groups that run anywhere between 6 & 10 minute miles.  If your pace is in that range - come out and join us.  5:55pm Tuesdays and Thursdays - False Creek Community Centre.

Welcome Chris and David - our newest members.  Anyone else interested in running with a group?  If you can run 10 km in 40 to 60 minutes, we have runners your speed.  We meet at 5:55 pm Tuesdays and Thursdays, False Creek Community Center. Plus we have an official social every month and an unofficial social most Tuesdays and many Thursdays. 

And a special welcome to Allen T-H. We know he’s only a few days old but we’re sure he’ll become a member when he can!
