Running Clubs in Los Angeles area?

bump

i'm pretty sure you can find joe douglas' information on the outdated santa monica track club website. call him. don't be surprised if he doesn't get back to you. if it's important to you, you'll keep trying. he coaches various levels, but expects your complete commitment. if you're looking for a part-time coach, or you can't commit completely, i'd recommend looking elsewhere...

Club Ed Manhattan Beach....Nuff said!

For information on Nike Team Run LA and Track Club Los Angeles, send me an e-mail.

perhaps your PB's would be a good start? all clubs are good, just depends on what you are: 800m runner? go to joe. 5ker, perhaps nike la. 17min 5ker? offer brian sell advice- and perhaps tcla is better. that's about it in LA proper. legacy run racing is in the area a little, they have some good guys, pretty much them or Nike LA for best two distance squads in LA county. smtc for 800 guys, or 1500 guys who can't run 5k's. a little personal info will help a lot with where you should go. good luck.

which are the best, which are more realistic to get into, and other similar run clubs out there that I haven't mentioned?

Try the Bloods or the other club, the Cripts.

Thanks man. I actually had some speed in college running the 1500m, but focused mainly on the 5K. I am doing marathon training right now, but would love to have a 5K focus on the track.

Eric, look out for my e-mail today.

lets get together for a run or two and we can chat about the team from a team athletes perspective....i'll email you via eric soon.
