Whom do I contact about this running club?
Who founded the club?Why was the club founded?1. My incentive for starting the club is to find some training partners who are willing to do some distance runs and intense interval workouts, both of which I have always had difficulty doing alone. It seems easier to endure a painful workout if others are experiencing the same fatigue. 2. An additional reason for starting the club is to provide local high school (i.e., Hesperia Scorpions) and college runners a place where they can build a strong aerobic base during the off season times of the year, which will make them more competitive during cross country competitions.
