Welcome to RunGR
Our Mission: RunGR aims to be a cornerstone of the Grand Rapids running community, supporting people from all running backgrounds to live, train, and run to their greatest potential. Our members build relationships beyond the training, use their passions to give back to the community, and achieve their personal bests when they race!
RunGR has a long history as a part of the Grand Rapids running community, providing members year round access to the group's coach, training plans, and structured workouts. Runners from all abilities, backgrounds, and aspirations use the expertise of RunGR's coach to help achieve personal goals. Members join to train for a specific race and develop friendships that extend beyond the Tuesday, Thursday, & Saturday speed workouts and long runs, making RunGR an extended family. RunGR gives back to the community by providing volunteer opportunities, while supporting local organizations and promoting wellness through the Bridge Run. Membership includes:
- Workouts lead by a Level II certified USA Track & Field Coach
- Structured Tuesday & Thursday workouts, focusing on speed and hills
