Our Goal: Members of the Fredericksburg Area Running Club believe that running enhances both the health and happiness of its participants. The club, in furtherance of this objective, will promote and encourage recreational running in the Fredericksburg community through education of the community on the benefits of physical fitness and sport.

The club sponsors group runs, fun runs, championships, road races, track meet and time trials. It also hosts lectures, demostrations and social events. FARC publishes  an email bi-monthly newsletter to further disseminate running information. All members are encouraged to contribute stories and information.

Additionally, FARC has a home page on the World Wide Web at www.runfarc.com. The homepage provides race schedules and results as well as additional information of interest to club members. FARC also distributes awards, conducts fund raising events and other such things that may be conducive to encouragement of running.

FARC is a registered non-profit organization and is a member of the Road Runners Club of America (www.rrca.org)
