build things you're surprised don't exist yet. I couldn't find a recent list of run clubs in NYC, so I started a list in my notes app then I migrated it to a spreadsheet then I built a website around it that's how I ended up with most ppl I show it to

NYC Run Clubs

A directory of NYC run clubs and weekly runs
