Welcome, Cities Runners!

This meetup has regularly scheduled runs around lakes in the area, along the river, and on some local trails. Most of the lakes are about 3 miles around, but we often link them together or go around twice. The River Runs also offer a lot of options when it comes to distance. If you would like to suggest a new lake, river, or trail route, we're all ears! The group is intended for runners who are looking for companions on their runs; all paces, distances and levels of experience are welcome - whether you are looking to run the TC Marathon this fall or to get back into shape after not running for a few years...or if you've never run at all!

This group is completely free; once you join you will have access to the group's Calendar (where you can find scheduled group runs and outings - approx 5/wk) and Message Board (an open forum for conversations relating to running and upcoming or potential events).

The 'New/Restarting Runners' subgroup is focused on runs at a 10-12 minute pace; other runs on the calendar will find paces of 9:30 and faster. If you're not sure whether you'll have company on any certain run, put a comment in your RSVP mentioning your pace, or send a quick message to the organizer of that run...chances are there is someone else with the same question!

In addition to casual runs, we will pick various races around the area to train for together as a group. Once again, recommendations are encouraged. Hope to see you out there soon!
