What you need to know...
A while back, Susan Michaels, a teacher at CRHS helped create a group called the Coginchaug Track Supporters. This group was aimed at creating a track at the high school that could be a common ground for exercise for the residents of all ages and abilities in our community. Proudly, due to the efforts of this group and support from the community, Durham is now home to a world class track and field! Now the group is looking to aim its efforts at creating a closer running community that will not only take benefit from the wonderful new facility but also from their fellow runners. Running is a life long sport. There are many accomplishments and milestones that happen at different ages. While in the past, the efforts of this group has often benefited our high school running teams, it is clear that the more we support each other, the better all of our teams and individuals will perform. Were looking for members to support our initiatives.
Here are some things on our to do list:
To give proper recognition to the efforts of our runners for their accomplishments in their own wellness and for achieving milestones.
To promote running as an important tool to a healthier and happy community.
To get active running members of our community to join to make new friends and acquaintances.
To create community wide running opportunities for all ages.
To earn funds to supply track and field based equipment to maintain quality running teams.
To have parents of children that run, including those from Go Far, Memorial, Strong and CRHS, to work together to empower our community of young athletes.
To support and nurture the success of individual runners and championship teams.
