Club Membership

The Alpine Runners Club welcomes all runners and runners/walkers, regardless of pace or experience, and we’re a friendly bunch! We have folks ranging from a 7:30-minute pace to a 13:00-minute run/walk pace. Distances range from 4 miles to 22 miles.
Try for Free as a guest before becoming a member (a signed waiver is required).
Research shows people who join others to exercise tend to enjoy it more and log more activities. Whether you’re a newbie or an ultra-marathoner, everyone can benefit from a running club.
