Wow, we haven't had one of these since Nov 2019, but the New Member Run is BACK and it's time to meet & greet our newest PPTC members! Maybe you started running during the pandemic, or you're trying to get back into running shape now that races are back? Join us if you'd like to make new running friends, are looking for friends at your upcoming races, or struggle to keep track of all these people spamming your inbox ;) then come out and run with us! We'll meet at Grand Army Plaza on Sunday, July 11 at 11:30 am. The route will be around 4 miles (options below), and will end at Branch Ofc (225 Rogers Ave, between Union & President), where you can enjoy a cold beverage in their backyard garden. They are expecting us at noon and the space will be closed to outside traffic/private party.

Please sign up on the normal PPTC Group Runs spreadsheet.
All paces welcome! If you are concerned about not having someone to run with, please email WelcomeWagon at pptc.org with your preferred pace and we will make arrangements.
If you are injured or otherwise unable to run, you can shortcut the route by going directly down Eastern Parkway and simply meet us at the venue (0.9 miles).
Bonus: We'll be giving away PPTC New Member FAQ/park map cards at Branch Ofc, so be sure to stick around and socialize.
