We Make Running Fun
Weekly Group Runs
Join us every Wednesday night and Saturday morning! We run year-round in any weather, and we welcome runners and walkers of all levels. We keep our runs organized and community-focused by:
- Starting together at the scheduled time
- Posting routes in advance: Check the maps on our website below or Strava so you can navigate with confidence
- Having a volunteer Sweep at the back for safety and support
- Sticking around after brewery and coffee runs to socialize
Because attendance and the mix of paces change every week, you may occasionally run solo—this is a normal part of an open community run. If you don't find a partner on day one, keep coming! The more often you join us, the easier it is to find your regular crew.

Hit the dirt with us for Saturday morning trail runs! Pace groups try to regroup at intersections to make sure no one gets lost. All paces welcome.

Volunteer Sweep
Being a Sweep is a great way to support your fellow runners and help make our runs safe and welcoming. You can sign up for one week or multiple time slots, whichever works best for you.
The Sweep:
- Stays with the last runner as a sweep (~12-15 min/mile pace)
- Starts the run on time
- Helps new runners connect with others of a similar pace
Guidelines:
- Arrive 10 min early
- Run with a phone for emergencies
- Know the route (or have the map handy)
- Follow the published route (only adjust if needed for safety)
