Fairmount's Original Run Club
Founded in 2003, the FRC has been leading runs in the Fairmount area, week after week, for over 20 years. Our mission is to help every runner be the best they can be, regardless of experience or running ability. Our primary ethos is that nobody should have to run alone. So we run together!
If you are new to the area or running in general and want to join us, the best run to join is our Welcome Wednesdays run. It is the biggest run with the widest variety of runners at various speeds. Introduce yourself! We'll be happy to see you.
This website is a work in progress. If you are looking for up-to-date details on our weekly runs, including maps and elevation profiles, please check out our Instagram page.
All runs start in front of Eastern State Penitentiary, on Fairmount Ave between 22nd and Corinthian.
