New Members Welcome

Barb Rushman - New Member Chair

Elise Misciagna (Madison)

Elise lives in Madison not far from Drew. Elise reached out to the Rose City Runners as she was interested in starting a once a week after work run followed by an outing at a local Madison bar. She’s been busy with 3 small children so it’s still in the planning stage.

Brian Howson (Summit)

Brian has been attending Saturday morning runs for a few months and officially joined in early June. Brian was recruited by our Brian Angle. He’s run a few races with club members and including team events. He is swift enough to win age group placements so will be helpful to our team.

Adrienne Mckeown (Madison)

Adrienne and her husband moved to Madison from Millburn in late 2019. She has a performing background in musical theatre, and she teaches voice in her home. Hobbies include knitting and gardening. She and her husband have 2 daughters and a failed Bernedoodle named Poppy. Poppy is the love of Adrienne’s life, and her husband Steve is very understanding.

Adrienne ran track in high school and then took 35 years off from running. She is very excited to be back at it! Her dream is to run a marathon with her older daughter (who ran the Leadville 50 this past summer.)

Inna Golovataya (Livingston)

Inna grew up in the Ukrainian city of Odessa before settling in New Jersey in 1990s.She is the mother of four (almost) adult kids and work as a software engineer for a major U.S. bank. She enjoys running, but does best when she is surrounded by a supportive group of people with similar goals. Her target 2022 race is NYC Marathon in November. She also loves to get lost in a good book (she thanks Audible for allowing her to combine this with running) and quite a proficient knitter.

More info to come.

Brendan Ross (Chatham Township)

Brendan recently joined the club to get more involved in the community. He's an IT guy by day, but a runner and cook by night. While he really enjoys running cross country or on the track, he always finds time to try a new recipe or expand on an existing one. He's been told that his penne-alla-vodka with shrimp is restaurant quality. He's looking forward to meeting all of us on the trails soon.
