The Scout Running Club starts today

The South Loop Running Club has partnered with The Scout Waterhouse + Kitchen to form The Scout Running Club. Tuesday, January 31, 2012 is the launch. If you’re interested in joining, show up at The Scout at 6:15 p.m. and participate in a 5K run. After the launch, running club members will meet every Tuesday at 6:15 p.m. for 5K runs from The Scout.

Free Membership, Free Food!
Club membership is free. After each weekly run, The Scout will provide a free buffet and drink specials for runners. The club has acquired sponsors, including Goose Island Brewery. According to Allen Patin, founder of original The South Loop Running Club, more sponsors will be added soon.

Socialize and Stay Fit
Patin founded The South Loop Running Club to “bring fitness-minded people together in a social atmosphere.” With the advent of The Scout Running Club, it looks like his goal will be realized.
