Running Club
Now that it has started to get cold outside, some of you may prefer to run indoors. Our Running Club will meet on the indoor track on the 2nd Floor of the Multipurpose Activity Center (MAC) on Tuesdays from 12 – 1 pm and Wednesdays from 8:30 – 930 am. These times may not work for everyone, and some may prefer to still work out outdoors. So, please feel free to use the Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/groups/murunning/) to make some new separate meeting times from those listed above. For those who are interested in competing for fun, the 5th Annual MAC Classic will be held in the MAC on Saturday, Dec. 7. Part of this event is a “Community Mile,” open to any Monmouth students of all abilities. To sign up, please contact Head Coach & Club Advisor Joe Compagni at any point prior to Dec. 4.
