Run Like Mad“But I don’t want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "We’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."
"How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here.”

TEAM 5AM RUNNING MADNESS
About us
Team 5am Running Madness started around 2009 as an informal group of runners gathering for early morning runs. Over the years the group grew in size, consistency, and cohesion. In 2020, we became the premiere USATF-certified running team in the Eugene/Springfield area. In 2021, Team 5am Running Madness incorporated and become an LLC jointly owned and managed by the coaches Dr. Lonn Robertson and Dr. Jenn Lewis.
Mission
Team 5am is a competitive, performance-oriented running team that aims to help runners meet their individual goals within a strong, supportive community. Team 5am Running Madness is composed of amateur/sub-elite and elite athletes pursuing their personal bests and supporting their teammates in those pursuits through consistent training focused on high volume, high intensity training, balanced with dedicated rest/recovery, as well as, evidence-based practices in nutrition, fitness, and mental well-being. Our team focuses particularly on adults of all ages training for the marathon or half-marathon at competitive paces (Half-Marathon 1:35 or faster; Marathon 3:15 or faster). We run to compete at peak performance individually while building and fostering a strong team community where we experience collective successes through being supported by and supporting our teammates on and off the race course.
