History A few students from the local university were enjoying a run around Westwood lake on a cool colorful fall day when they realized Nanaimo had no running club for the younger generation of runners in our community. Eureka! They decided to start such a club. A club that promotes health and wellness in the community as well as offer a social atmosphere where it is easy to build friendships among people who all share similar goals. The Westwood Running Club was born September 2008. Westwood Running Club puts a bright new perspective on running in the Nanaimo community. We have taken one of Nanaimos most beautiful attributes and added a social club atmosphere. Runners can join us twice a week to escape the pressures of their every day job or the stress of pressing assignments at school and rejuvenate over a lovely jaunt around this wonderful lake with wonderful people! People who all share the same goal, to strive not only for physical fitness, but a healthy lifestyle throughout all areas of their lives. |
