We're looking for a Tuesday evening run leader
If you enjoy running the Tuesday evening run, and you're familiar with the route, consider being a run leader. Having a consistent run leader ensures there's alignment on the weekly runs, and the leader can provide updates via the WhatsApp group chat if any changes (i.e., run is cancelled). If interested, please reach out to info@woodsidesunnysiderunners.com! Looking foward to hearing from you 😃 Thank you to all those who step up each week and lead the runs, we can't thank you enough!
