Seattle World School Running Club
Our volunteer coaches have put together a running schedule
for the 2016-2017 school year. Currently, Thursdays after school are dedicated
for running practice. In addition, there are options for races on Saturdays at
least once a month. We will keep our results updated and post our race
calendar.
