If you are like me, you probably made fun of the entire facebook crowd, and figured it was just something for the high school kids to mess with. I signed up a few months ago, and it is actually a great social networking site, and a surprisingly great way to keep up with events in the area. You will also be surprised how many old friends you catch up with. Here are some facebook groups that might interest you, and encourage you to join. . . - Ford's Colony 5k and 10k - This group is used to keep runners up to date and to discuss the race.
- Medoc Trail Races - Similar to the Ford's Colony, the group already has 50 guests.
- Raleigh Running Outfitters - Gives you a chance to keep up with sales, group runs, and races.
- Fun Run for Charities - This group has over 180 members from our area who are involved with the new race.
- City of Rocky Mount - The Chamber has a group with over 800 members, and they do a good job of keeping it updated.
- Trail Runner Magazine - Get inspired by other runners who share stories, photos, and more.
- Marine Corps Marathon - There is a group of people all over the country training for the fall race.
- Rocky Mount Endurance Club - Yes, we have a facebook group where users can post messages, participate in discussion groups, view photos and more.
Sign up for facebook! It only takes a minute amd it is free. Once you are there, search for any of the groups above to join in. Add me as a friend, so we will know you are online. You will not be alone. . . Frank, Scott, Tracy H, Tracy P, Ursula, Jeff H, Eric S, Kim, Larry, Arthur, Ross, Ryan and more are already "in the book". You are never too old to be on facebook (just ask Frank).
