December 31,

To best prepare for your race, the GERWC offers group training runs for all members.  This training begins with the Spring time change and ends with the Fall time change each year (to avoid the winter months and inclement weather).  We meet every Tuesday at the Evansville State Hospital in the parking lot.  5:30 PM for warm-up and speed work starts at 6:00 PM.  Refreshments and food are provided.  For information contact Gordon Benfield at msurunner@sbcglobal.net

Gordon Benfield also leads a group run each Saturday at the 4-H center.  Runs start at 8 AM and all level of runners are welcome. If you have questions, contact Gordon Benfield at msurunner@sbcglobal.net  Note:  In the summer, runs will begin at 7 AM.
