User:Dchiotos/Grumble Run

The Grumble Run is an annual event in Charleston, West Virginia on Valentine's Day Weekend. It was founded in 2010 when Charleston native, Stephanie Tyree, challenged Charleston residents to organize a 5k "run" - this run resulted in more than twenty people coming together for a one of its kind "run". This run takes the existing idea of running 5,000 meters and transforms it into a fun-themed event of going 5k through whatever means is available without wheels. 2010 saw runners walk - and some jog - the full 5k with many breaks for smoking, conversation, and gummy worms. This event is paired with an annual Anti-Valentines Day Party that happens during the evening after the "Run". . This run is happening on February 12, 2011 and has set the goal of at least 25 "runners" participating.
