In addition, the club conducts races Wednesday and Saturday nights for a 10-week stretch in the summer. The races typically attract 55 to 70 runners a week. The lengths vary, gradually building up to a 15K by summer's end. The cost to enter a Wednesday or Saturday night race - a mere 50 cents. People of all ages and abilities are welcome.
Some people think it's for elite runners only.
We have runners of all abilities. Certainly, over the years, we have had some outstanding runners. But we have 12-minute milers, too. Although standings are kept for the regulars, the races are open to anyone. Over the years, we've had numerous people from different places stop by and take part.
