Weekly Run Club Schedule

Thursdays @ 6:00 PM | Saturdays @ 8:00 AM

Our weekly group runs are a fun and free way to meet other runners in the area and stay motivated throughout the week. We provide 3 and 5 mile routes that always start and end at Fleet Feet. Routes for adjusted distances can also be provided. On Thursdays after the run, head over to SingleSpeed Brewing Co. to continue the fun and get your first beverage for free! We also offer seasonal running series and competitions to keep you going all year long. Fleet Feet Run Club welcomes all people, all paces, and all ability levels.
