Every Wednesday at 6:00 p.m., Holabird Sports hosts a running group on the campus of CCBC Essex** in Rosedale, MD. Runners/walkers of all ability levels are welcome to the group. Each run will begin at the track facility, where the group will join together for stretching. Runners are encouraged to park in any of the visitor lots or by the tennis courts, which are adjacent to the track.
Runs can be as long as 5 miles or as short as a 1.5 - 2 miles, though most group members typically run 3 - 4 miles. Most running routes take the group of campus for an easy loop, but there are plenty of loops on the campus—including a short trail circuit—for runners who prefer not to stray too far.
Those joining us for the first time are asked to fill out a release waiver at the beginning of the run. Water will be provided, but we encourage our group members to bring their own water, just in case.
"We are excited to offer the Holabird Sports group to the local running community," said David Hirshfeld, President of Holabird Sports. "We staff the weekly run with our in-house running experts, who can not only make the run more enjoyable but also offer advice for a wide range of topics."
Holabird Sports will invite reps from your favorite running shoe companies so that group members may demo the latest models, learn about various products, and to receive giveaways. Likewise, Holabird Sports holds a raffle at the end of each month for a gift card to the store. Runners who show up more often to the group have a greater chance of winning!

**Location of the running group meetings may be subject to change if the group decides to change locales.
