Wahoo Beginners Group Print E-mail

The Wahoo Beginners group wants to encourage beginners to start running, stick with it, set some goals, and have fun all the while. The runs are for all-comers and all abilitouties, whether you're a total novice or a long time runner that wants a non-competitive workout with a great group of people! Our group got its name when Jerry, our group leader, mistakenly referred to the Yahoo Discussion Group as the "Wahoo Group!" If you've always wanted to start a jogging program with a little direction, now is your chance. All you've got to do is show up!

We have a regular workout every Tuesday evening at various locations around State College from April through October.Our next workout is: Waiting for google calendar.... Hope to see you there! During the Winter we're a bit less formal, but we still meet. Checkout the full schedule, or the next few weeks on the calendar below to see what our future workouts are and where we're meeting.

The group also meets other days of the week. These runs are usually arranged and/or announced on the Wahoo discussion group and posted on the calendar. They are of various lengths and paces, depending on who shows up, but no one is left behind! Often the faster runners will loop back to keep the group together.

Jerry Steffy is our group leader and coach. If you have any questions about the runs, or if you'd like to help Jerry with the runs, contact him at run2k1@juno.com.

July 6, 2010

We all had hot hands for the Tuesday night run at Sunset Park last night, so we did a poker run to try to cool them off. Ten of us tried to run the best cards to get the best hands. We had one newcomer to the group, Susan Mohammed. She ran very well, but the cards were not so good. She drew an Ace high only. Denise Weaver ran well,but could only draw 8 high. Dave LLoyd is a second weeker and drew Jack high. Karen Weiss 10 high. Dave Degroote King high. Rick Bundro drew a pair of 7's Queen high. Michelle Christensen finally got a pair of 4's ( she has done this run for four years and this is the first time she has had two cards alike. I got a pair of Jacks, King high but they were not high enough. The two who had the best hands were Pam Scott with a pair of Queens 8 high, and Ethan Knocke with a pair of Queens, Jack high. We also had an injury when Pam stepped wrong and injured her foot. We are hoping it is not broken. Other than that we all had a great time and are looking forward to next year's game. We will be at Spring Creek Park next week for Indians. Hope to see you there! Run well. Jerry

We had a great pack hounds last night for the annual "Fox and Hound" run. There were returnees from last year and newbies who just learned about us last week. We are getting more people but would like to have more. Thank you Tom Cali for Jenny Deistsch. She is enjoying herself. Denise Weaver came to run with the hounds last night, It was nice to see her. Pam Scott, Michelle Christensen, Ashley Cooper, Ethan Knocke, Sarah Reinhard, Karen Weiss, Jerry Steffy all ran howling and looking around for the fox. Newcomer to the group David Lloyd seemed to enjoy all the commotion. The hounds ran the trail of the fox for 30 minutes or so and finally gave up and went to the Creamery for some well needed ice cream. Next week we are doing the poker run at Sunset park. Come and see who gets the best hand for poker to win the cash pot. See you there! Jerry.
