Good to Know

What to Expect

Expect a welcoming trail-running community with multiple weekly runs, all-level participation, and a specialty running-store setting. The Saturday run is the signature group run, while the Sunday easy run is especially friendly for newer trail runners. Some events are structured by pace or route difficulty, and the vibe is social and outdoorsy.

Leadership

The club is run through San Francisco Running Company, the Mill Valley running specialty shop and community organizer. Weekly runs are coordinated by the store and its run leaders; the website also notes they are looking for leaders for the Sunday easy run to maintain its social, non-drop format.
