How to start a Running Club?

Thank you Hansons for giving your input. The more situations, no matter how they form or operate, that promote, continue, expand, evolve our sport the better. Just think if there were 30 teams around the country that had the kind of team, sprit, and backing that Hansons have.

Here is a list of teams (In no particular order) that seem to be on the right path (most teams are run very different from one another).
