Self-pace, or
Run alongside a designated captain
Routes are shared on STRAVA in advance and reviewed during pre-run announcements.

RULES AND SAFETY GUIDELINES
-
Before the Run: Arrive early, check in, listen to pre-run announcements, and line up with your appropriate pace group.
During the Run:
Run on the correct side of the street/path as directed by the group lead.
Be mindful of traffic, pedestrians, and other runners.

Notify a run leader if someone needs help or falls behind.
After the Run: Cool down, socialize respectfully, and thank your pacers and volunteers.
-
Each run, introduce yourself to at least 2 people in your pace group. In the unfortunate event something were to happen while hitting the pavement, its important someone knows your name. And why not get to know a couple new people?!
-

-

When running in group formation, we ask that you position yourself toward the back of the pack when possible.
Keep your pet close and prevent jumping, lunging, or aggressive behavior toward runners, pedestrians, or other pets.
We know you love your pet — and we’d love to love them too, even if it’s from a respectful distance.
