I've been thinking of joining

I've been thinking of joining a running club. I'm already a member of HARRA, but as I get to know some other area runners (both online through the community of running blogs and in person), I've been thinking of joining one of their groups. The obvious choice seems to be the Houston Striders since I am helping them with a webpage and since their list of members already includes Jon, Cassie, Jen, Holden, Vic, and Jessica.

(I haven't met any of them in person but feel like I know them anyway. I have become one of those people with "online friends." A bit freaky and dorky. But I have a feeling I'll be meeting them all soon!)

Anyway, decisions, decisions. I am in desperate need of some motivation to get running regularly again, and a club might be the way to go. My concern with the Striders is that they all seem to be pretty far away from me down here in Clear Lake. This is the problem with living in the 'burbs a long way from Houston's best running locale -- Memorial Park. It'd take me at least half an hour just to get there to meet anybody for a run. :(
