- Do you live in NJ and are you a member of the Whippets (or know of any potential NJ members)? If so, we are starting up a Meetup group to organize runs in NJ. We’ll be starting in the Jersey City/Hoboken area as well as Sparta (where Billy Washer lives), but can create Meetups for runs in other areas too, potentially.
