Last Thursday, Seliga Run Club had its first-ever meetup, and it was a hit! At 6:15 PM, a mix of people showed up at Seliga Shoes, ready to run and walk in the hot St. Louis weather.
We did a 2-mile route down Brentwood Blvd, through Memorial Park, and back to Seliga Shoes. We saw some of Brentwood's prettiest streets along the way. Our group had all kinds of people - serious runners, casual walkers, and even moms pushing strollers. It was great to see so many different fitness levels joining in.
We did get a bit lost at one point (oops!), but that just made things more fun. Even with the heat and the wrong turn, everyone stayed upbeat.
The best part was watching people chat and get to know each other as we moved along. By the time we got back to Seliga Shoes, it felt like we'd made some new friends.
Looking back, our first meetup went really well. Lots of people came, everyone was excited, and it felt like we were starting something special. We can't wait for the next one!
If you missed this one, don't worry! Keep an eye on our social media for the next meetup date. Whether you want to run fast or just take a nice walk with others, you're welcome at Seliga Run Club.
Thanks to everyone who came out in the heat to join us. You made our first meetup awesome, and we're excited to see what happens next with our growing running group!
