Hoboken Elysianettes Running Club

The Elysianettes proudly present
HoBOOken Halloween 5K and Scary Scurry Kids Run.
The race, a first endevour for the Elysianettes, will take place on October 30, 2010 at 10am, starting and finishing at Pier A in Hoboken. The USTAF-certified 5K course runs along the Hoboken waterfront, which should be especially beautiful on a crisp fall morning. Age group and costume awards will be presented. The race will benefit the Hoboken Family Alliance's Project Play initiative, whose mission is to rebuild ailing sections of Hoboken's Church Square Park.

The Hoboken Elysianettes Running Society's (HERS) mission is to create a welcoming and supportive environment for women who are already runners or want to become runners. Beginners are encouraged to join as we'll emphasize training, development and participating in local races. Experienced runners looking for challenges in pace and distance will find that as well.

The Elysianettes are fortunate to call Hoboken, NJ home. Our weekly runs take advantage of the waterfront's newly built paths and piers and are complemented by unbeatable views of the Hudson River and the New York City skyline.
 
Annual membership dues are $15. We ask that you pay the fee once you've run with us a few times and you've decided the Elysianettes are a good fit for you. You can give the fee to any run leader, along with your name and email address. The membership fees cover administrative costs and entitle you to the monthly "Elysianette Gazette" newsletter.

In addition to our weekly runs we're keeping busy with organized races and other fun events. Please check us out on facebook or email us at elysianettes@gmail.com for lots more information. Hope to meet you at a run soon!
 

A little bit more about us ...
 
We are:

  • Strong proponents of our "No Runner Left Behind" policy. It's no joke to us. You won't find yourself wondering which way to turn to follow the course we run - something that separates us from many clubs.

  • Reliable. We don't miss scheduled runs. No matter the weather or the week ... we are there.

  • New runners training for their first half marathons and marathons this spring/summer.

  • Seasoned runners who have run multiple marathons and half marathons.

  • Casual runners who start off every Saturday with us, do a run, grab a cup of coffee and catch up with the group afterward.

  • Early risers. We have a solid group of regulars who get up at 6am, even in the cold winter weather, to run with us.

  • Fun and friendly people who have enjoyed several social events together (a girl's night out, a NYC Marathon watching excursion, a holiday party and a trip to and participate in a NYRR race).

  • Sizeable. We are a relatively big group, especially on Saturdays, which means you will likely find someone of your pace and interests to run with.

 
We'd love to see you at one of our runs, and you can see if the Elysianettes are for you. For more information email us at elysianettes@gmail.com
