We have set some priorities, recognizing that every need cannot be addressed at the same time. And, we recognize that as some of the most pressing projects get worked, others can be picked up. That there are lots of activities going on in the running community but we need to be better at spreading the word. We also don t want to duplicate efforts.
Some clubs have a special focus, or project, and target a specific section of the running community.
It is clear that our goal is to direct the right runner to the right program. The Anchorage Running Club is committed to continuing our Running Leadership Forum. On a twice-yearly basis, we will host a meeting of running organizations and race directors that focuses on sharing information and resources. ARC in conjunction with Parks and Recreation will develop a running map of the Anchorage Bowl so that residents and visitors can get a feel for the tremendous resource they have available. Racing is a labor-intensive sport.
