Introduction

i love running. it's the sitting that's gonna kill me...

Can you run at least 3 miles without stopping?

yes

Do you prefer trails or paved runs?

paved

What pace do you like to run at?

6:20 - 10:00; depends on workout schedule

What distance (range) do you like to run?

3mi - 23mi

When would you like to run with the group (mornings, evenings, weekends)?

mornings during the week are best, although some evenings work. on weekend mornings i run hard workouts with the grinders in marana.

What matt is saying about this Meetup Group

To me, 80% of the battle is getting out the door; the extra motivation of joining a group run helps me get out the door and have fun!
