If you scanned the results of the Roy Griak Invitational, the Jim Drews and Tori Neubauer Invitationals, you would have seen the Minnesota Running Club(officially known as The University Running Club-TURC) listed. You might have wondered: Who are those runners? They are part of a national group of what could be categorized as intramural runners who compete against NCAA Division II and III athletes, as well as other teams like them around the country.
The umbrella organization for these teams is the NIRCA(National Intercollegiate Running Clubs) and their national championships begin tomorrow and extend through Sunday in Hershey, PA. You can read about the NIRCA and their championships
