Dallas Athletic RUNNING Club
In an effort to put the Athletic back in DARC, I am going to organize some runs for the team when we don't have games. When I say organize, I mean I'm going to pick some local runs, tell everyone about it, and hope we can get a group together to have some fun. We're going to stick to 5 Ks for the most part. Sometimes races will have a couple of different lengths and those with the will can run the longer length. I ran in two official races for the first time in my life this year with alums Jon Savage and Sam Cole. It's a lot of fun, you get some cool stuff, and it gives you some goals to help with your conditioning.
Everyone will be responsible for signing up and paying the entry fees (usually under $30). As we get organized, we can look at doing team entries. There are a couple of relay races where we could really have a lot of fun.
I'll post more as I go through the listing and see where we can run. The two best places to check out race schedules are RunOn and Luke's Locker.

I hope to get some good participation. It's not a big time commitment, other than waking up early on a Saturday. We can have a lot of fun with no need to focus on competitiveness. Just getting a group from the start to the finish would be a great day. It's helped me a lot. For those of you who've seen me this year, I'm ending it 40 pounds lighter and am shooting for 50 more in 2008.
Guys, this can be a fun event for the club to do outside of rugby. You can bring wives, girlfriends, kids. So, please start getting it in your head to come out and go running with me. Anyone with ideas or suggestions, e-mail or call me.

When does practice start up again? I need to hit something.
Tuesday.
I posted it yesterday but google was having problems.
I think I could do a 5K walk at best right now.
But I would like to get on the running tip.
Have you guys ever done a hash run? Cross country trail running + beer. And you have to find the trail. Pretty fun.
