    Running Club is a non-competitive option for students who enjoy running and want to stay active alongside our Cross Country and Track teams. The club trains and works out with Cross Country in the fall and Track in the spring, following similar practice routines and conditioning plans, but does not participate in meets or competitions. Open to all ability levels, Running Club focuses on building endurance, improving fitness, and fostering a supportive team environment without the pressure of racing.
