The Washington RunHers, a club dedicated to promoting women's running in the Washington metropolitan area, is kicking off their 2008 women's track program on Tuesday, May 6th. The RunHers track program is designed for female runners of all abilities who are already running regularly who want to improve their running form, speed and fitness. The coaches, Al Logie and John Rusinko, divide the participants into small groups of similar ability and design each week's workout for the various groups' abilities. The workouts are both fun and challenging.

Workouts are held weekly, rain or shine, from 6:15 - 8:00 p.m. at Wakefield High School at 4901 S. Chesterfield Road, Arlington, VA (a short drive from 395 near Shirlington and Skyline). The track program costs $135. This is a one-time, non- refundable fee for members of the Washington RunHers. Prospective track participants must join the club in order to sign up for the track program.

Due to the popularity of this unique track program, it is anticipated that it will fill up by early May. Prospective participants are encouraged to check out the club's web site for the complete program details.
