Rensselaer Running Club is an RPI Union-affiliated club, where our main purpose is to create an environment where anyone can run, regardless of their experience. We welcome anyone who wants to just get started with running or anyone who is experienced and wants the opportunity to compete against other local runners. We hold weekly group runs where students can meet new people, learn about safe routes around campus, and achieve their fitness goals. We also frequently compete in local races, anywhere from a one-mile race to a full marathon!
We use Slack as our main form of communication within the club. We also have a Discord channel, if you are interested in joining that too. Also, the best way to meet people in our club is to attend our weekly group runs (see 'Meeting Times').
Anyone is welcome to join these group runs, regardless of skill level! We usually have people leading groups on runs ranging from 1 to 8 miles. This is a great way to find friends to run with and learn the best places to run near campus!
