The TRL Board Needs You!
Being on a “board” – if you have ever thought that sounded important, well, it is. But being on the TRL board doesn’t require you to have special training or credentials; it simply requires that you enjoy running and being a part of the Lizard community.

Presidents Corner
By Angela Lindbo Running means different things to different people. For me, I love my body’s ability to simply cover ground, getting out in nature and the sense of accomplishment this brings.
