What Does A VP Do Anyway?
This question has come up often lately and I will answer as best as I can.  First a little history, the club has not had a VP for many years.  I always wondered as a bystander what would he do anyway.  And now in retrospect I don’t see how the club could function without a VP.

Here are ten items done on a weekly basis. 

1. GERWC weekly Email

2. Check for Race Day conflicts for our Club Races and Races we will be Timing.

3. Create a New Brochure for Every Race.

4. Make Web Page Updates Daily

5. Time Races

6. Post Race Results to the Website (Deadline is Noon for 9am Races).

7. Compile My monthly reports for the monthly club meeting

8. Update my Weekly email list to include all new members emails.

9. Test and charge all timing equipment for the next race.

10.  Run my weekly mileage.

 Vice President's Message 

Get out there and run, no matter how fast or slow, every mile counts, toward the goal of better living and faster running.  No more excuses: it's too hot, it’s too cold, it’s raining, I am tired, I have too much to do.  I have used all these excuses and more.  And I have run with all these conditions and all kinds of pain. So go out there and get a couple of miles in.  Get out there and have fun running; it doesn’t matter if you do 1 or 10 miles, just have fun with it.  On your worst days it can relieve tension and frustration from all the day's work.  Sometimes you need to run alone and be in your own little world with no one bothering you.  Now go out there and break some personal records.
