MUCH MORE THAN RUNNING.
The most important thing to know about RUNClub, is that we are about much more than running.
We believe that running not only helps us to achieve physical wellness, but that it increases our emotional and spiritual wellness. Emotional fitness is how this all started. We also believe in the power of an accepting and encouraging community. At RUNClub, whether you have been with us for one session, or years worth of clinics, you are part of our tribe. And we love to be in community together -whether online or in person. Our tribe is supportive, kind, fun, encouraging and made up of some of the best people you'll ever meet. Trust us.
You might join a clinic for the running, but we promise, you'll come back for more than that.

ANYONE CAN RUN.
The second more important thing to know, is that we believe that anyone can run. Our bodies were designed for it. But that doesn't mean that everyone can simply get up and run 5 or 10k without some training. We all start somewhere, and our programs are designed to cater to every level of runner. Our run/walk programming caters to seven pace and distance groups to ensure that you will find a perfect fit for wherever you are at.
THE "PICK-UP".
The third and final thing you need to know about RUNClub, is that we believe no one should EVER be left behind, and that everyone should have a chance to be in the lead. That's why we have what we call, "the Pick-Up".
Here's how it works:
Throughout each and every run, there will always be those that are having a great run and are leading the pack, and those that are having a harder run (we all have those days), or simply have a little slower pace than the front-runners. So, when a large gap forms between those in the front and those bringing up the rear, the coaches (or other runners) will yell "Pick-Up!" Once this has been called, those in the lead, starting with leader, double back, high-fiving and encouraging the rest of the group as they run past, and then fall into line behind the final runner. This continues with each runner, until the person(s) who were at the back at the pack, are now at the front.
Pick-ups exemplify our values at RUNClub, and never fail to put smiles on the faces of each and every runner, and make everyone feel like part of a team. We love pick-ups, and know you will too.
