From Couch to 5K


Although Devona, Kristy and Jen signed up for the Couch to 5K--they're looking awfully attached to that couch. Kristy is not only on it, but appears to be under it as well.

We start 'em young


Whitney pays close attention at the inaugural meeting of the Athens Runner Girls. Age should never be a barrier to accomplishing your dreams

Kick-Off Party a Success!


Two new Athens Runner Girls (well, Alison is an Athens Walker Girl--but that's power-walker to you!) show up for the kick-off party at Esther's Sunday night. There was a great group and more that couldn't make it but want to start walking....or maybe even running.

Erica will be doing the "Couch to 5K" plan-once she finishes those cookies.

Welcome!

Welcome to the brand new blog for the soon to be established running club for the Athens Runner Girls (not its real name).

Please join us on April 30 at 4:30 pm on Esther's deck for our kick-off party! We'll have cocktails and appetizers and NO guys. We're going to talk about expectations, trepidations and all the ramifications of taking up a walk-run program. Don't worry--there is no commitment involved at this time. Just come to the party to check it all out. Then decide if you want to be part of it on any level. We can't wait to see you there!

We've started this blog hoping that this site will function as a notice board for who is running when and where and also a place for photos, encouragement and whatever else we'd like to do with it. You can post comments and once we figure out how to do it, we'll put a calendar on here and some other fun stuff. By the way, if any of you are proficient at blogging-let us know. This is our first time and we could use some help to make the blog really work for us.

Speaking of "us", we are known collectively as Runner Girl! but are known to friends and family as Esther, Shonda & Natalie. We've all been running for a while and are looking for friends to run with us! We like to walk, jog, run, race, talk and sometimes hang out (usually all at the same time)! We've all gotten a lot out of running and would love to run with more people.

So, hope to see you there. If you have any questions-call any of us or post a comment to the blog and we'll respond.

Can't wait to run with you!
Runner Girl!

Reason To Run #1: All the extra energy!
