Warm Welcome to all our New Members!

Dear Runners,

We've had more than a dozen new member registrations since the last two days. We'd like to take this opportunity to welcome all our new members!

We'd like to quickly brief on some of the key activities and facts @ Chennai Runners:

• We've been actively participating in many marathons, which has got us a lot of media attention from both, news chronicles and magazine sections of the media world. This has also resulted in the team growing from about 53 members in 2006 to about 330 members as on date. We've been one of the fastest growing running groups in the region.

• As a team we participated in our first international marathon @ Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon in 2007.

• We successfully conducted five 30 kilometer (about 18.5miles) ECR Runs!

• Participated as a team in the Standard Chartered Mumbai Marathon held in January 2008.

• A team participation at the Hero Ultra Chennai Marathon held on 10th February 2008.

• Covered by the media in more than an occasion - The Hindu, India Today, Deccan Chronicle, Mylapore Times, to mention a few.

We believe in the fact that Running is all about Having Fun! Thats our mantra. We just hope that our new members will derive benefit from joining us. We invite our new members to mail and introduce yourselves to the team, and we look forward to running with you in the days to come.

Feel free to shoot any question you may have in the context of running and Chennai Runners. There is a whole bunch of enthusiastic runners waiting to help you with the right answers!

Happy Running!

Best,
