what has your running club done for you?

am not even a fully paid up member yet (this is only because the appointed time for new members to sign up each year hasn't arrived) but it was one of the coaches from the club who met me at the gym today and put together some weight training for me to do, and also introduced me to the joy and wonder of 'running' on an adaptive motion trainer without pain, and also lots of advice for when I return to running properly
am so pleased
love this club, everyone who wants to should try one! (also get a nice discount at the gym)0 -
I LOVE MY RUNNING CLUB.
The Memphis Runner's Track Club (MRTC), is a staple in the Memphis community. They have a hand in the majority of the races throughout the Mid-south region. Membership is only $25 a year, and you get a 10% discount on a lot of races, 10% at Breakaway (the local running store), they hold member's only races (usually at the parties or BBQs), and you get a quarterly magazine (The Roadrunner) that tells you all about the happenings coming up, the running groups through out the area, and one of the members is a coach over at the University of Memphis and offers free coached speed work at the UofM track.
MRTC offers a Women's Run/Walk program during the summer, and it ranges from walker's to advanced runners, which has won several RRCA awards. They also do a children's running program in the fall. They hold the local race records for the area and keep track of where members run and print marathon times in the magazines.
We are neighbors:) I live outside of Memphis(Tipton County) and haven't joined yet. I drive to Memphis for races but have a hard time with the idea of driving for training runs. I should join for the discount and magazine alone.0
