Runny McRunners,
The Key West running club, Southernmost Runners, is alive and well, hosting groups runs almost every morning of the week for runners of all paces. We do our best to run together as a group and don't leave anyone behind. It is free to run...you do not have to be an official running club member to come out. Your decision to join the group runs will be rewarded with your felllow runners' commitment to help you become faster, fitter, and funnier.

**Runner looking for long run this weekend: Teya Lober is visiting KW and looking to keep up with her marathon training. She would like to do 15 miles Sat (Apr 3) or Sun (Apr 4) at about an 8:00/mile average pace. Please contact her at:  tlober@hotmail.com  or cell (616)334-3762 to link up. I suggest using White Street Pier as a meet-up location due to its central location and ample parking.
