In this episode of the RunBuzz podcast, I share my tips and best practices for starting your own running club. I talk about club structure, formation, pace groups, marketing, and how to decide if starting a club is right for you. And if you aren't interested in starting your own club, keep listening anyways as I share a behind the scenes look at running clubs in general that can give you some insight when it comes to looking for a running club to join.

In today's episode, I speak with Darris Blackford. Darris is the race director for the Nationwide Columbus Marathon and Half Marathon. Besides being the race director, Darris is an accomplished runner who has run over 200 marathons, including ultra-races like the Badwater 135 and Burning River. In this episode, we learn about Darris and how he became a race director. And, we talk running races, this year's Columbus marathon and we share lots of memories as well as some running tips. We also announce the Fall 2019 RunBuzz community meetup where community members from around the world can come run with us at the Columbus Marathon's 40th anniversary celebration.
