National Running Day and Track Night


National Running Day, held annually on the first Wednesday in June, is a day when runners everywhere declare their passion for running. 
Since 2009, the country's foremost running organizations have worked together to celebrate our sport with thousands of participants on the first Wednesday of June. 
We encourage runners to join in by planning a run, spreading the running bug to a friend, signing up for a race, or setting a new goal. 
It would seem that you have no choice but to come celebrate National Running Day with your favorite local running club tonight at 6:15. As always, we meet at the Central Cambria track. If it's raining, we're still running. If thunder and lightening starts, then consider our National Running Day gathering postponed.

Our Beginning Runners enter week 2/day 2 of the C25K program. On tap is a cycle of 90 seconds jogging/2 minutes walking for 20 minutes. The half-marathon group will be running 3-4 miles. And if we have folks there for a speed workout, well... they'll figure something out.

Additionally, Chris Geddis of the Gingerbread Man Running Company will be on hand for a shoe clinic. This is a great chance to learn about running shoes and to figure out what works for you.

So happy National Running Day, and we'll see you at the track!
