The only requirements to join are that you are a current Western student with a desire to run, and a positive attitude. The club is comprised of men, women, undergrads and grad students alike. We all work together to achieve our personal goals and have a good time doing it!

Currently there are two branches of the running club. The competitive group, which meets at 4:00 pm, is assisted by Coach George Dales. They meet with the intention of competing in meets on Fridays, Saturdays, or Sundays. Some of these events arecollege club races or NIRCA events. The leisure group meets with the intention of running just for the fun and social aspect of running. This group meets at 5:30 pm. Individuals from this group can go to any of the events that the competitive group goes to, and is encouraged to do so.

If this sounds like something you would be interested in, just stop by for one of our runs or send us an e-mail (rso_rc@wmich.edu) . The Officers are Megan Thomas and Chad Mahakian, and they are always available to answer any questions you might have. It is worth noting that there are dues of 15 dollars. This money goes towards transportation, event fees, and running club shirts.
