Meet, greet, and sprint: The ultimate guide to local running clubs
Find your motivation, lace up those shoes, and join the fun
Running has a lot of benefits when it comes to staying fit and active. It’s also a great way to enjoy the outdoors and put those cute running shoes to good use. This exercise has also become a way to connect with fellow runners and be more social in real life.
Not all runners are the same. Some prefer to keep their own pace, while others get motivated by the company of fellow runners, hence joining running clubs. Many runners attest that these clubs are a great way to mingle and meet like-minded people, potentially making new friends or even finding a date.
Whether your motivation is to train, stay active with friends, or take the chance of finding the right one while getting your steps in, we’re listing running clubs that you can join, whether you’re in Quezon City or down in the Alabang area.
