"Hi! I am getting ready for my first half marathon which is in March and I recently signed up for the Chicago Marathon on 10/10/10 which also happens to be my 25th birthday! I'm just looking for some nice people to run with!"
"Hi, doing nyrr this year and don't want little old ladies beating me on race day."
"I heard from a friend of mine who joined the group how wonderful the people are and also how much his running has improved since he joined."
" I want to make some active friend to go to races, train with and share knowledge and resourse on the sport"
"Looking to meet other competitive and casual runners who are serious about running and improving their abilities."
"I was told by one of the members to join...And i really needed a running club to race with and train with and this club seems to have everything I'm looking for."
"I want to keep up with my running through the winter and would much rather do it in with a group."
"I like running and am trying to improve my pace and distance. I think running with a group will help push me harder."
"I'm looking forward to doing some racing!"
"I heard about the Dashing Whippets through the ASICS fun run, and it sounds like a great club. I love meeting other runners and joining would also motivate me to run my best for future races (esp. marathons and half-marathons)."
"Running in groups pushes and motivates me to run further and sometimes it's that little push I need to build up my endurance."
"My high school buddy is on and raved about this group. I got back into running to keep my BP ok, and it would be nice to join so I can stay motivated!"
"I wanted to improve my running times and train with others to make it more fun"
