CLUB RUN STATEMENT DURING COVID 19 PANDEMIC:
The following guidelines are current as of July 28. 2021for participants. Distinctions are made for unvaccinated and vaccinated participants in the guidelines where applicable (e.g. outdoors there is no need for a vaccinated participant to wear a mask, but we ask unvaccinated participants to do so at beginning and end of runs). Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, these guidelines are subject to change as guidelines are updated by the CDC.
Running together is a great way to meet other runners while getting your miles in. We have plenty of club members out and about every week. Even if you’re not a club member, you’re welcome to join those BGRs when they are running. We run at a variety of paces, and walkers are welcome. You can also find a running buddy and stay up to date on run time/location changes by joining our Facebook group.
