Updates for the Fall Semester!

I hope everyone is having a great summer so far!

Few Updates:
I am turning in paperwork to renew the Kent State Running Club with student organizations tomorrow as well as funding paperwork and the Blastoff  "Freshman" Student Organizations Event the Sunday before class begins. I will need some volunteers to help out August 28 5:30-9:00pm to pass out flyers and represent KSU RUN CLUB!

Club Dues:
At our first meeting we will finalize $10 per member for the Fall and Spring semester for club dues. This will go towards flyers,  a Kent State Running Club banner, and food provided for meetings that will take place monthly at the beginning of the month. If we have excess funds leftover-they will be applied purchasing Kent State Running Club shirts.

Design ideas for the logo are more than welcome as we go into our second printing of Kent State Running Club shirts.

Post your Race Reports!
Let us know what you have been doing this summer!!

Tree City 5k in Kent!

Yesterday I ran the Tree City 5k here in Kent. The race started from Dix stadium and took us through the bike bath leading to campus and through campus. Anymore, these 5k's have been feeling fast and I havent been able to run any great ones lately. The results arent posted yet but I managed a time around 18:25 in the hot and humid afternoon. This was good enough to win my age group and get me some hardware anyways so I cant complain too much! lol It was also great because I got to run with my bud and former Marietta teammate Sean Hoover! He showed me how it was done by running a very respectable 17:05 to take 2nd overall!! I thought they put on a great race and I enjoyed it.
