We are runners in the New York City neighborhoods of Woodside, Sunnyside and surrounding areas of Queens. Our area may be less than a couple miles from that island borough to our west (and their centrally located park), but that doesn't mean we don't love running on the hills and beneath actual trees on this side of the East River! We even have a cozy track in our 'hood! Join the group and tell us where you like to run! We organize group runs and outings so that we can build a community of runne …

Those of us who love running in Queens get to experience the best of all worlds.  We are in the greatest city in the world, in the most diverse county in the country.  We have fantastic parks in our borough - and even two major airports to carry us to distant races.  We have beaches.  We have challenging hills and shady trees.  We have a Major League Baseball team, a world-class tennis center (and tournament), and have been the home to more people of influence than you can count on all of our ha …

This group is for enthusiastic runners of all fitness level who enjoy running to clear the mind, keep healthy or just to lose weight.  Group runs will be organized primarily in the early mornings, and over the weekends.  Late night runs will be organized based upon the interest of active group members/attendees.  For runners, like myself, who struggle to stick with my running/fitness schedule, this group can provide the opportunity to link up with a running buddy, who can help motivate each othe …

We encourage people to lead runs and show off trails and other lesser known routes around NYC. Let's stop paying high prices for commercial-cookie cutter road races and lets start exploring! New York Trail & Ultra Running was started by Michael Oliva (www.linkedin.com/in/michaeloliva1 ) who Co-Founded and organized the Holiday Marathons; a series of fun laid back running events in New York City. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVr8yHDwpqI

The Tribeca Running Club provides a opportunity for downtown runners to train, compete, or just go on casual group runs. Downtown Manhattan doesn't have as much of a running infrastructure as other parts of the city, so this group helps local runners stay motivated and connected, while enjoying the great paths and other running-related perks our neighborhood offers.

FINALLY! The Fun Run has arrived in New York City! It's pretty straightforward - We're a group of people that like to run and have fun! Every Wednesday we meet at a different local bar throughout NYC, run, and always meet back at the bar for a guilt free beer and to hang-out. If you're in your 20-30's (or just think you can hang) with a fun and outgoing personality looking to meet new people, then come join us! Our runners are all at different paces. Everyone usually finds someone within their p …

Our training happens twice a month with the first class being an endurance class and second being a speed class to target the two most basic and important parts of any distance race. Wheth …

This is a group for those interested in group runs starting in Long Island City. There are running clubs based in north Brooklyn and Astoria but none, for reasons I can't explain, in LIC. Goals of the group: change that fact; connect people seeking running partners; explore new routes. All skill levels welcome. Envisioning runs in the 4-7 mile range but the beauty of the experiment is it's entirely flexible to the wants of those who join!

Looking for a Central New Jersey Running club, then Raritan Valley Road Runners might be for you! With runs from the Highland Park and Piscataway area, we attract runners from all over Central New Jersey like from New Brunswick, Edison, Somerset, and more! Though we are involved in many races and events, we are not only a group of racers. We strive to promote the sport of running and its healthy lifestyle. We also organize club parties and other social events.  You can also check us out on faceb …

The greatest, funnest, and best-looking group of (wannabe) runners in NYC. Well, at least 1/3 of that is true. And we can definitely guarantee fun. Come join us for a workout, a run, a bRUNch, or just come and hang out! We encourage runners of all abilities -- especially if you think you are slow -- to come join us for a fun run. We run, eat a lot of food, make friends, and never take anything too seriously. http://nyc.informalrunning.com/

In short, we are an obscure suburban running group in Eastern, Central New Jersey. But there’s a bit more to it… There’s no shortage of running clubs/groups in New Jersey. We have joined, ran with or have had some association with several of them. They are all great in their own way. They all have some facet, idea or event that appeals to us, but there’s not one that could completely fill our needs due to location, event timing or any number of other small details. So, we decided to start our ow …

The Garden State Track Club (GSTC) is a non-profit organization that aims to serve all levels of runners in New Jersey. We offers individualized coaching plans for all runners, from beginners to elite athletes, and meet regularly for training runs and participate as a cohesive team in many races. Our team stresses the idea of "team," in that we have groups that meet daily for runs or workouts. If you meetup with us, you will be welcomed to run with new friends and reach your goals. In addition …

I don't know about you, but I'm in terrible shape. All those obstacle races that are so populare now (run for your lives, 5k foam fest, rugged maniac, superhero scramble, the color run, etc.) sound like a lot of fun, though. If they sound like fun to you and you'd like to run them too, why don't we a.) train together and/or b.) meet at the event? Training can be ordinary running, but we can also do things to train for the obstacles. I'm thinking rock climbing, water parks, or whatever anyone els …

This is a group for anyone interested in running for a good cause: runs and walks to benefit charity organizations and programs. If you are an outdoors person and you like to run (or walk) this is your group. Every step you make will be contributing to a good cause. Let's all get together and help our city become a better place while we have a fun time! Bring your friends, family, pets or coworkers along and be part of this healthy movement.

Interested in starting the day with a loop around Prospect Park? There is nothing like Brooklyn's best park early in the peace and quiet of the morning and no better way to enjoy it than breezing through it on foot. Now that Spring approaches and the weather gets warmer, let's run through it and watch it bloom.

This is a group for Moms in the Fanwood/ Scotch Plains/ Westfield area who like to run and are looking for some running partners. All levels welcome! I plan to schedule a running meetup on Saturday mornings for a long run and potentially one early morning during the week before work.

OK what's up with all the neurotic 9 am running groups? I use Saturday mornings to sleep in after a long week of work and other crap. Let's do a nice civilized 4 pm run in Central Park (or other locations if we want). This is the first one (because I couldn't find any other small running groups at this time, I started my own).

This is a group for runners/ joggers who are just getting started and could use motivation and encouragement from others. If you've been looking for a running partner or group then here we are! Experienced runners welcome as long as you don't mind running (or not sometimes) at our pace. Where/When:  We meet at least 2 days a week at Lincoln Park in Jersey City near the blue track just off of Rt. 440 and typically run for about 30-40 minutes depending on schedules.  I personally have started goi …

Looking to start a new running club in New York.....

This is a group for anyone interested in running along the river below 14th St. I started this group to meet other outdoor enthusiasts who want to be outdoors in the morning instead of in a gym on a treadmill. All skill levels are welcomed but you should have some running experience.

I am creating this group for people who would like to start doing some group runs on the Coney Island Boardwalk and Shore Parkway along the Belt Parkway. Whether you are looking for just running with a group, training for a race of any kind, looking to do some cycling etc., we can get together and have a good time. Feel free to organize events that you think might be of interest.

Network with leaders in NYC's burgeoning tech startup community while getting a little exercise.  We'll create several routes of ranging difficulty levels to encourage runners of all levels to participate.  If possible, please wear a shirt with the logo of an NYC tech company so we can boast our geek pride :)

Are you unhappy with how you look? Are you unhappy with how you feel? Are you tired of telling yourself you should do something about it and then hating yourself when you don't? Are you looking for a close group of friends? Are you scared to start but want desperately to try? I AM!!!! Let's make a tight group of friends while making tight bodies for ourselves! I'm looking for people who would like support and who can support me in completing the Couch to 5K program (http://www.coolrunning.com/en …

This group is for people looking to meet up and run in the Bensonhurst and Bay Ridge areas of Brooklyn. The suggested meet up locations are Dyker Beach Park at 14th Ave and 86th Street, Shore Road Promenade at 17th Ave and Cropsey, and possibly the Coney Island Broadwalk for weekend morning runs. Of course, suggestions for other local routes are welcome. I am currently running 10K at 9 minutes per mile and 5 miles at 8:00-8:30 per mile. My personal goal is to get my 10K pace under 7:30 by August …
