Perpetuate the beauty of the sport of running. One of the club's claims to fame is a highly successful, innovative, and assuredly unprecedented, type of race series. Featuring different themes, the races not only encourage competition, but also show just how enjoyable the sport of running can be. Prizes include valuable gift certificates as well as theme related specialties and costume awards. Another hallmark of The Bears Running Club is its Group Runs.
Members hang out after the runs to socialize, eat bagels and enjoy various libations.
Middle and high school kids travel from all over to attend the week-long, half day camp. The 2001 camp will be held from Monday, August 20th through Friday, August 24th. They thought the race would be pretty low key and the perfect place to introduce club members to team racing. The Bears were thrilled to come in second to the elites. This year, The Bears aim to be a force on the NJ Circuit, starting with The Red Dog Half Marathon in March.
