Hey Ashley! Welcome aboard. I'll send you a message soon. Best of luck getting back into running. We're going to be at the Pikes Peak Ascent and Marathon Expo if you want to swing by and say hello. There are a ton of 5K races in and around Colorado Springs. You should check out the Jack Quinn's Running Club at 5:30 every Tuesday. The Colorado Running Company, Boulder Running Company and Runner's Roost have social runs and/or running programs and workshops. And if you just stop by any of the stores you'll find tons of info. And we carry as much as we can collect. Looking forward to seeing your photos and reports about your progress.
Contact me any time. Thanks again!

Hey Everyone! :) I am so thrilled to join this awesome community of runners. Anyways--long story short, I have decided to start running again (I used to run in High School) , and want to train for a 5k with the hopes of adding more difficult races as I get more and more fit. Any tips, advice, or encouragement would be appreciated! I"m so motivated to do this.

Thanks!

Maybe I'll check it out this Tuesday - I usually just through Monument Valley Park am usually feel like the fish swimming upstream when the Quinn runners go by me LOL...I'll skip the beer though - I don't like it LOL but if I ever find one I like and/or can deal w/the smell then I may drink beer LOL...thanks for info!

Yeah, you show up and sign in. No real paperwork. Do 10 runs (sign in 10 times) you get the Quinn's Running Club shirt. Do 100, you get a cool long-sleeved shirt. Totally social deal..knock off a 5K, knock back back a couple of beers. We've been down there several times this spring and it's a blast!
