Dearest Clubbers,

It was much to my dismay this week that, upon sending out a link to join the listserv (this email list), it appears that nearly half of the current club members have not been receiving my emails all year.  WHAT THE HELL, GUYS COM’ON. 

This week held yet another Nasty Week, but not just any nasty week. This nasty week was the Nasty Week to end all Nasty Weeks. Members seemed determined this year to make themselves as ill as possible, and for the alumni not in the GroupMe, you can check out the rankings here! Big congrats to our nastiest clubber, Bryce Zygmond, and Matt Walker on their decisive victories. 

Last night we had our Fall Semi-Formal and honored outstanding members of the club with some very cool mugs. It was great to see everybody not dressed in running clothes, and extra great to see lots of class bonding happening. We also met our new officers for the 2026 calendar year! 

In case you missed it:

President: Sam Scott

Vice President: Emanuel Williams

Treasurer: Arjun Sheth

Race Director: Rafferty Koontz

Social Chairs: Addison Bartlett and Kabir Zota-Stull

Service Chair: Sophie Luxton

Supreme Leader: Michael Bernier

Supreme Pledge: Gojo the Cat. 

Congratulations to all the new officers! Ishan cannot wait for you guys to get to work!

BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE. Club ain’t done just yet, and we’ve still got a good bit of semester left! Big things are coming…

Here are some announcements for the week.

1. PRACTICE WILL BE MOVING TO 4:30 THIS WEEK. To prevent us from running in pitch black, practice will be moved up by 30 minutes. Now you don’t have to wait as long for club! Our 4:30 start time typically lasts until the beginning to mid-February, so buckle up. 
2. Long Run + Brandwein’s this weekend??? This weekend, we are deciding between a few locations for a long run followed by a trip to Brandwein’s (because I want their Thanksgiving sandwich.) Stay tuned in the GroupMe for updates!
3. Weight Room at 6:30-7:45 pm Wednesday night! Now that the XC season is over, it’s time to start bulking up for track!
4. For those new to the indoor track and would like to start training, we have the indoor track from 6:30-9 pm on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays.

Enjoy your LAST FULL WEEK OF CLASS for the semester! Isn’t that crazy to think? Boy, did that fly by huh.

Sincerely,

Lame Duck Colin
