We Heart New!

Face it: people love new things. Sure, maybe some of us have that old pair of running shoes, or that race shirt that may be falling apart that we just can’t seem to part with, but in general, people love new stuff! With that in mind, the Columbus Roadrunners have a lot of new things happening this summer.

First off, if you’re reading this, you’ve probably noticed our fancy new-and-improved website! Not that there was anything wrong with the old one, but we thought you’d enjoy seeing a revamped site as we kick off the summer racing season. You know, for your viewing pleasure. We hope you enjoy the new design as much as we do! You’ll find a lot of our information easy to locate, from posts featured on our home page, to our new color-coded calendar. Races and events are in blue, training opportunities are in red, and socials and award ceremonies will be in green.

Second, there’s more opportunities for CRR members this year. We know you love to run. But we also know sometimes you just need a rest day, but still want to take part in the excitement. Well, worry no more. Thanks to our new Volunteer Coordinator, Charity Keller, we now have a Volunteer Recognition Program. If you ever volunteer doing ANYTHING (and she literally means ANYTHING) at an event, you can contact her and she will keep track of the hours you volunteer, adding up points for your hours that you can trade in for prizes! How awesome is that?! Everyone say, “THANKS CHARITY!” for this awesome program that rewards those awesome people who help make each of your races enjoyable! Be sure to contact her if you’re interested in volunteering, too, or click here to read more about volunteering and the recognition program. And runners, be sure to say, “THANKS!” to all the awesome volunteers we have out at events!

Finally, it’s summer. You know what that means? SUMMER SERIES!!! YAAAAYYYY!!! I know you have been waiting all year long to run in the heat, if nothing else to show all those people driving around Columbus how awesome you are as they cruise by you in their air conditioned cars. CRR members get a discounted rate and everyone who signs up is automatically entered into all 5 (yes, FIVE!) races. The series kicks off Friday, June 19th at the Summer Solstice 5K and 1 mile fun run. Be sure to bring out the whole family then, there’s a race for all ages! Pre-registration earns you a really awesome CRR sling cooler. And, if you’re on the fence and not sure whether you’re going to do the series yet, you can still register any time throughout the series for one or all races; even on race day!

Enjoy all these awesome new opportunities and have a great summer! Be sure to drink plenty of water and don’t forget to change your socks!

2014 Destination Race Information Meeting

There will be a meeting on Monday, October 21 at 6:15pm at the Big Dog Running Co. store on Broadway. This meeting will go over information for the 2014 destination race, the Run For Donna out in Jacksonville, FL. The meeting will cover information on the different distances and race options, training programs, and more. Last year’s destination to San Diego was a big hit and we hope to have even more in 2014 as we Run with Donna!

Country’s Midnight Express Pick Up

Packet pick up for Country’s Midnight Express 5K will be Saturday, Aug 24 from 6pm until 11:30pm at Country’s Barbecue – 3137 Mercury Drive – we will be located beside the Tshirt pick up table in the parking lot of the restaurant. Look for the Columbus Roadrunner sign.

This is important – please read!

All Summer Series participants must pick up their number from the Columbus Roadrunner table – you will receive your race number & shirt.

Once you pick up your number, please remember to bring it to run. If you forget your number you will have to buy another number – I do not have extra numbers – I will not be able to reassign numbers. The time that is posted for your number will be the time that is figured in the results for the Series.

Bring your Summer Series shirt to have it marked!

Parking is wherever you can find but I recommend you park at Kmart, Publix or the Library & walk to the starting area. It will be crowded so don’t wait until the last minute to park & pick up your number & shirt.

See a volunteer – say THANKS!
