New Runner FAQ
No! Our weekly group runs are free and open to everyone. Just show up a few minutes early and introduce yourself.
All paces are welcome. Weekday runs are usually 4–6 miles and people naturally split into pace groups. Let someone know your pace at the start and we'll point you to the right group.

- Monday 6:00 AM – Haverty's lot, 1319 Military Cutoff Rd
- Tuesday 6:00 PM – Waterline Brewing Company
- Wednesday 6:00 AM – It's Coffee Time
- Thursday 6:00 PM – UNCW Track
- Friday 6:00 AM – 24 S Coffee House, downtown
- Saturday 7:00 AM – 10 miles, location posted weekly
