We had a wonderful time celebrating Global Running Day! Thank you to everyone who ran with us. We had a beautiful mix of veterans, new runners, and runners from out of town looking to celebrate community on Global Running Day.

Thank you to the vendors who joined us this morning or contributed to our members raffle. You add so much to building up and supporting our running community.

Congrats to all of our members who conquered Boston - we are so proud of you!

The Charlotte Running Club consists of passionate runners that strive to spread the love of running and to help each other grow. The Club's goal is to bring the expansive, diverse, and exciting Charlotte running community together under one umbrella through motivation, group runs, and social events. 

Our club represents an incredibly diverse population, from lifelong competitive runners to couch-to-5k-ers and everyone in between. We all found running for different reasons and at different times in our lives, but we all now share a collective interest in making Charlotte a better place to run. Over the coming months and years, CRC is committed to helping to drive that transformation by connecting our members to:

• Running Opportunities. From fun runs to workouts to races, we help connect runners to events and activities for runners of all ages and abilities.
• Social Opportunities. You can't run all the time, so we provide fun and engaging opportunities for runners to socialize away from roads, tracks, and trails.
• Community Involvement. Whether we're volunteering at a local park, coaching and mentoring with community running organizations, or advocating for runner safety, we strive to help make Charlotte a better place to run.
