What is the NORTHEAST RUNNING CLUB?
We are a not-for-profit organization that is dedicated to promoting physical and active lifestyles through running and walking. Our club members are comprised of all levels of physical ability. Ages range from children to people in their 80’s.
Why do people join?
- to socialize at our numerous events
- to find running/training partners
- to learn about all aspects of running and nutrition
- to give back to the community by volunteering
How much is it to become a member and where does that money go?
It is $20 for an individual and $25 for a family for 1 calendar year. Our club hosts events throughout the year and is very active even in the winter months. The following are just a few examples:
- Monthly meetings - these typically have food provided and guest speakers or other activities.
- Group fun runs – Organized club runs in various locations with food and socializing afterward.
- Weekly runs and track workouts – getting into a weekly routine is a great way maintain or improve fitness levels and to do it in a group setting can be very motivating
