Richmond Road Runners

Supporting running in the metro Richmond area

I am a Nursing Student at J Sarg.  I am currently in training for the Ukrops Monument 10K and my first half marathon in May.  I am looking for a running group that can help me with my weekly runs, with some hill training as well.  Mile 10 of the Historic Half Marathon in Fredericksburg (in May) is all uphill... 

Any suggestions for running groups would be so helpful!  Thanks!
Caty  =)

KT: The short option is never more than 5.5 miles. The paces are varied so you will always have someone to run with. The nice thing is that its a different route each week. Just show up between 5:15-5:30pm on Thursday. You can get more info on the groups section for Museum of Fine Arts Thursday Group.
Welcome to the RRRC!! We are a super running group. I know you will find lots of friends. Also, I am a RN and remember those student days even though it was a long time ago. You will survive; I did.

Welcome to the club . . . there are a few different groups and I am members of neither of them, I try to find people in my neighborhood. I terms of hill work I think you should do hill repeats on Quarter mill road right near Parham.
Where is Quarter mill road?
About a 1/4 mile from Half Mill Rd.
Dog;

You, my friend, are a mess. Very funny. Thanks for the laugh! :-)

Cathy;

The Bryd Park group does hill repeats. I am not sure where or when, but you might want to ask them were they recommend. I believe they use a hill in Byrd Park over by the pump house.

I run 5th street, between Main and the Brown's Island. It is well lite and does not have much traffic, at least early in the morning.

Run Happy
