The Enid Running Club began back in the late 1970’s and like so many successful organizations of that time period flourished, peaked, and then for whatever reason, interest began to wane. Well, because of people like you, who have identified their interest in becoming more physically fit, The Enid Running Club is making a very strong resurgence. This website is intended to be the communications link between yourself and a strong contingent of like minded individuals, runners and walkers who have the goal of becoming and/or staying physically fit.
Although much of this site is still “under construction” the thought and creativity behind it is testament to the drive the current members have to help you and citizens in Northwest Oklahoma achieve an improved level of fitness to enhance their everyday lives. But, like any growing organization, the Club is looking for new, energetic members.
For the past eight years, the Club has directed the Great Land Run 5K and 10K as a community-wide event. All proceeds from this race are donated to the Enid and Chisholm Public School systems specifically for the enhancement of technology in the classroom. The Club has expanded its leadership role to include involvement in the Waukomis 5K, the proceeds of which have been used to revitalize the Waukomis City Park. We’ve also hosted several Horn of Plenty fun run 4 milers west of town, and are currently making plans for The Candy Cane Dash 3 miler in conjunction with Eagle Marketing’s Candy Cane Cash event at David Allen Ball Park in December. In addition the club has organized training runs of varying distance literally every day of the week here in Enid. The Club exists solely for the improved health and overall improvement of the community through physical fitness.
So, no matter your age, gender, or current physical condition, I am sure you will be able to connect with others of similar status to join with and enjoy the positive experience found in improved physical fitness. Please come and get acquainted at our next scheduled group run which is held each Saturday morning at 06:30 am at D’avinci’s Coffee House on Willow in Enid. If you have any questions that I may answer, please email me.
Sincerely,
Carl Recher
Enid Running Club
