Cool folks from Clintonville (mostly) sharing information and smacktalk about upcoming running events.

And occasionally meeting for a beer.

Run update

Love the logo!!!!! Be sure to check it out on the previous post. Let's get t-shirts made!!!! Thanks Helga

Congratulations to Olaf on completing a 13.1 this past weekend at Disney!!! Not sure how our warrior let Minnie pass him. Will he ever live this down?


Good luck to Kelly running the Chicago Marathon this coming weekend (Wow!) and also to the Warrior Queen's other half who is running the Columbus 1/2 the following weekend.


For those of you who have signed up for the Warrior Dash, we are changing our wave time to 3:00 pm. Innocent Bystander can't make it by noon and we do need the official team photographer at the event - unless of course she is planning to surprise us all and actually compete.

Next run....... The Turkey Trot Thanksgiving Day. It is amazing how good that Thanksgiving dinner tastes after a 5 mile run!! Not to mention the extra slice of pie with absolutely zero guilt!! I am running it along with Dunkr and possibly a Lil' Villebilly. Here is the link to sign up:

Villebilly Run Club logo


After months of trial and error, I am ready to reveal my attempt at our 1st Villebilly Run Club logo. Critiques are welcome but may be ignored.

Wife of Hagar is still recovering from her broken tailbone, but hopes to start running in the next week or two! Hope you are all doing well!

The First Villebilly Run Club Event was Small but Successful!

Six VBRC members plus the I.B. gathered at the Oak last Saturday evening to initiate our run club in the only way we know how:  running and drinking.  The weather was perfect and the company was up to the task.  We ran from The Oak to Patrick J's, where we enjoyed a beverage at the halfway mark before tackling the uphill portion of the run.  Dunkr was the clear leader at this point and if he had just had his beer and left he might have stayed as such.  We all decided to head back out together, though, and Dunkr's wife was not to be outdone by him - she blew back into the Oak ahead of all the rest.  Congratulations to all - we're working on the next event now.  Maybe the I.B. will bring a better camera.

Just registered myself and 2 of my younger Vikings to do the Strides for Hope on September 11th. Will probably be doing more walking than running as one of them wants to bring a book. :( Hope to see you there! Fellow Warrior Astrid
