What we’re about
Inno Pub Runners started in the fall of 2021 to provide an opportunity for runners in the community to get to know each other at no cost to our pockets! Knees are another story.
Every Tuesday at 6pm, runners gather at Innovation of Sylva to run various distances. Some people run together and some run independently, but in the end, everyone ends up back at the brewery for post-run beverages and food.
On the first Tuesday of every month, runners gather at Innovation Station of Dillsboro to catch the runner-favorite food truck, Rice Wagon.
