FAQs
Is everyone really good?
MRun has runners of all abilities and everyone is welcome to join us on our weekly runs. As a club, we share one thing in common -- We love to run! For each daily run we usually offer 2 different lengths depending on your mood, A 3-5 mile run and a 5-7 mile run. If you are feeling more ambitious a group of people usually do a long (about 10 miles) run on Sunday mornings as well.
Does everyone already know each other so I'll feel left out?
Many runners come and go and there is usually a new person everyday at our weekly runs so you won't be the only one. Also the regular runners and run leaders are very friendly and love to meet new members to club. If you still don't feel comfortable, bring a friend, we would love to have both of you!
Does MRun ever compete?
MRun participates in a variety of cross country, indoor, and outdoor meets ranging from open races to varsity. Typical distances are 1600m, 3000m, 5000m, 8000m, and 10000m among others. Competing is not required but it is a very fun aspect of the club. You are more than welcome to have fun and compete just to run rather than win. If you are more serious about running, you are not alone either because MRun has marathon trainers running with us all the time too. Regardless of your age, skill level, or competition level, MRun has something and someone that is the same as you. Come on out to one of our weekly runs and get started with the club!
How do I get started?
All you have to do is show up at some of our daily training runs and you're in :).
Does MRun run all year long?
MRun meets all year long despite the environmental conditions. Rain, snow, sleet, you name it we will be there so don't be shy. The only exception is lightning of course.
