ARR Racing Team
|
History:
In 2004, Robert Feuer
suggested that the club have a racing team. It sounded like a good
idea, so the club racing team is now in its sixth year. The purpose of
the team is to foster camaraderie among club members and to promote the
club to non-members. Since speed is not an issue, but rather
friendliness and enthusiasm, the team of ten members chosen by the
president consists of a wide range of ages and talent.
Purpose of Racing Team:
To foster camaraderie among Albuquerque Road Runner members and to
promote awareness of the club within the local running community.
Requirements:
Must be an ARR member in good standing. All levels of runners are
encouraged to apply for the team. Applicants agree to participate in at
least five New Mexico races during the calendar year. They also agree
to wear the Cool Max running singlet, t-shirt, or long-sleeved shirt
with the club logo provided by the club at each of these five New
Mexico races. Team members will be ambassadors for the club, so they
must be polite, friendly, and willing to answer questions about the
club. It is highly recommended that team members participate in one of
the races at the Run for the Zoo and the Duke City Marathon.
Rewards:
Each team member will receive a choice of two Cool Max shirts: running
singlet, short-sleeved t-shirt, or long-sleeved t-shirt with the club
logo free of charge. At the end of the year, team members are to turn
in a list of the New Mexico races in which they participated as ARR
team members to the team administrator. Ten
applicants will be selected by the president each year. Preference will
be given to those who actively participate in club activities.
