CALLING ALL ENDURANCE RUNNERS!!

Do You Want to Contribute to Research Studying the Personality and Mindsets of Endurance Runners?

As endurance runners, we all know that we are a “special breed”. But why is that? What is it about our personalities that makes us want to run (and run, and run)? What is it about our mindset that pushes us to keep going when others stop? The current study aims to answer those questions, but we need your help! You can help us by filling out a few surveys. Once you are done, you will be provided with your personality profiles and mindset evaluation. Best of all, you will know that you have contributed to our understanding of endurance runners!

If you are interested, please email Dr. Mauldin at the email address below and we will send you the links to the surveys.

For more information, contact Dr. Kristin Mauldin at [email protected]


We now have chapters throughout the U.S. that are run by our Regional Ambassadors to help connect local

runners together. Find one in you area by visiting our website.

Interested in becoming an ambassador? Send an email to [email protected]

Since the formation of the Half Fanatics in 2009, a runner who is a member of both clubs is called aDouble Agent.

The Main Maniacs decided to create an asylum dedicated to those who are Double Agents. In orderto be assigned a Double Agent number you must have your dues paid and updated in both the MMand HF. Your name and e-mail address must match both clubs. Each day a program will run togenerate new members.

New gear is available for Double Agents as well as a whole new set of challenges as you climb peaks.

For more information visit the Maniacs web site.

With the new website comes a new way to identify race discounts. All discounts are now located on the race calendar page. Look for the gold coin following the race name, that signifies a discount. Click the coin and after a brief disclaimer reminding us that discounts are for members only, the code will be revealed along with the amount saved.

The programmers are working on lots of website items and one is a non-race related discount link. Until that’s complete, you’ll need to email Jeff Bollman ([email protected]) for the running warehouse discount.

PLEASE RENEW YOUR ANNUAL MANIAC DUES (ON YOUR MANIAC BIRTHDAY)

YOUR DUES HELP MAINTAIN THE CLUB AND KEEP THE COVETED MANIAC GEAR IN STOCK!! A REMINDER IS SENT WITH THE MONTHLY E-FLASH AND SOME OF YOU ARE OVERDUE!!
