Metro Milers Social Running Group

Metro Milers are the Metro Run & Walk family of runners who were some of the first runners to train with the MR&W Distance Training Program.  Over the years this group of 40+ runners have coalesced as friends and running buddies and now blend fun and hard training with great success.  Metro Runners now welcomes others who want to run for fun and fitness and enjoy the company of this supportive group.

 

As one of our long time Metro Milers describes us on our Facebook page, "We are a group of crazy running people from Fairfax County. We run roads and trails year round in any and all kinds of weather.  We run races from 1 to 50 miles but distance running is our main obsession. We know how to motivate each other by offering support, competition, tough love or bacon at the end of a hard run". 

 

Our goal races are usually half and full marathons.  We are young and old, fast and slow, and while we're not elite runners, some of us finish high in our age groups and all of us continue to improve our race times. 

 

The Metro Milers use Facebook to communicate time and place for group runs.  We usually have the longer weekend runs on Saturday and Sunday and have our long established Tuesday evening track or hill workouts.
