2020 – 1200 Club Registration Is Open Through October
ORRC’s 1200 Club registration is open throughout October 31, 2020, because of COVID-19. Retroactive miles are allowed back to January 2020 for later registrations.
What is the 1200 Club?
Offered as an ORRC member benefit, the 1200 Club’s goal is a challenge and a motivational tool – run/walk throughout the year. Rewards are a healthier lifestyle plus a gorgeous Asics jacket after the first year when completing 1200 miles. Jacket patches for subsequent years. Just report your mileage at each month’s end (below), and watch them grow.

Cumulative mileage from all participants through 2019 shows club members have circumnavigated the Earth 69 times, and we’ve reached the moon a whopping five times!

“Thank you for all you do to make this club so much fun and keeps people like me motivated to meet this goal.” Philip McGuigan
