Runners,

 

Welcome to the 2017-2018 season with Sloan Runners Club (aka Sloan and Steady)! Pace yourself, we have a lot of updates for you to make sure we hit the ground running.

 

If you haven’t joined the runners club yet, please sign up on SloanGroups.

 

Club Overview

 

The mission of the club is to foster a community of runners at Sloan. The club was founded on the principle that anyone who wants to run can find a group. It doesn’t matter whether you run competitively or haven’t run in several years; you’ll find athletes just like you who share a similar passion in personal development.

 

The club is currently managed by three 2nd year MBA students (Paige Boehmcke, Jordan Handler and Rohit Ramchandani). We’re actively looking for new leads for the club, so please email us if you’re interested in leading the club.
