Removing all at jobs except the ones running?

I am scheduling jobs to be executed using at and this works fine mostly.
But sometimes I want to reset the at job list and I have found this command to
ease this when the at job list is long:
atq | cut -f 1 | xargs atrm
I have put it into a utility script atremoveall for ease of use.
But since atq lists also the *running* jobs it will attempt to remove also
these, which I don't want.
How can I exclude running jobs from removal while still being able to remove all
queued jobs easily?
