What started as two friends enjoying a run around Lake Bloomington in the early 1980's.  Evolving into Thursday afternoon runs around Lake Bloomington.   Lake Run Club is one of the longest established Central Illinois’ premier run club; providing fun and challenging races, programs, services, and social events for all ages and abilities. The Lake Run Club is a not-for-profit organization that’s powered by volunteers to promote running and racing in the Bloomington-Normal area.

The Lake Run Club is open to everyone, and is accepting new members. Whether you’re a casual runner or a marathon enthusiasts, we’re looking forward to running with you. We may take running seriously, but the fun and friendly roots of the club are still alive and well, and we want you to join in on the fun.
