Come join us for a mid-week run. We run every Monday and Wednesday from the store at 6:30 pm.
The group runs around 30-45 minutes and runners of all level are welcome. We typically run for around 3 miles plus depending on the group. Some of the group will run longer if they happen to be training for something and want to get the miles in, others will run less depending on what they feel like doing that day.
Join Dick Pond Athletics on Saturday mornings at 8:00 am for an early bird fun run. Distance anywhere from 3-12 miles or more depending on the group. Many of the people are Walk2Run graduates. Some of the group will run/walk for 30-40 minutes instead of running the whole time. Anything goes, everyone does the distance they want to do.
We also have an 8:00 am Fun Run with a Walk N Talk option every Saturday.
Make new running friends, learn training and nutrition tips from experts, try out demo shoes and more!
May 20th through October 7th 2023
When in season, marathon training begins 8:00am Saturdays from the store. Start times will get earlier as the miles increase.
