     Raise your hand if you go to Runner’s Club. Ouch, that is not a lot of hands raised. Well, why not go? Runner’s Club is a great way to exercise, train, and have fun with friends.

     Runner’s Club is held every Tuesday and Thursday after school; ending at 3:30. During Runner’s Club, Mr. La Plant or Ms. Spears lead the runner’s in stretching, and then the whole club jogs a lap. There is a different running course or activity that the runner’s participate in; ranging from raw running to relays. A good example of an activity in Runners club would be running across the wash or the famous Tiny’s run (where the runners run a course to Tiny’s and get an ice cream). Runner’s Club tries to make running interesting and rewarding for the runners.

It provides a great form of exercise and can help you in your long term health. So why not get off your buttocks and try Runner’s Club? Remember, it is on Tuesdays and Thursdays after school.
