About Us
We are a 32
year old nonprofit running club that is dedicated to promoting running as a
sport and fitness exercise in the lewis-clark valley. We provide opportunities to run,
companionship, and encouragement for experienced and non-experienced runners.
The club consists of people of all running abilities: the casual jogger to the serious marathoner. We also welcome
walkers to join us for our weekly runs/walks and our club sponsored
running events.

VACUOUS VELOCITY
By Margaret K. Gates
I want to start a program to increase my energy,
Improve my strength and stamina, my health to guarantee,
To gain the admiration of the people watching me.
I wonder what's a sport that I might play?
Could golf provide the means for me to exercise, excel?
My arms are awfully weak and I don't hit the ball too well.
Coordination hampers me; my game just doesn't jell.
My ball will hook and slice and ricochet.
Perhaps I'll take up swimming since no ball obeys my will,
But often in the water I begin to take a chill,
And every time I need to breathe, I wish I had a gill.
I choke on all the chlorine and the spray.
I know -- I'll take up running; it requires no skill or brain.
A healthy child can do it; runners e'en can be insane.
Through rain and pain they strain to gain control of steep terrain.
I'll run and race and chase my cares away.
