UPIKE introduces Run Club
0Written By Leonard Burks
The University of Pikeville Run Club is a new addition to the campus this year. This clubencourages a healthy lifestyle and allows students to bond with faculty and staff. Students and staff members get together around 6 p.m. every Wednesday. They run the 5K route around the UPIKE community. When it comes to getting to know professors, it can become exhausting and hard, especially for student-athletes. More then half of the campus students are athletes. Club member Chandra Lee expressed she liked “getting to know my professor, Dr. Clayton, and sharing the experience with professors that I see every day like Ms. Rogers.” This club is beneficial for the campus because it is a new outlet for students and faculty to get active and as well as bond. If you are interested in joining this club or get to know some of the faculty members, they will be meeting in plaza at the 99 steps on Wednesdays.
