Tuesday Fun Runs
We are currently running on our winter fun run route! We start at Carle on Windsor and First at 6:00 pm. The route is north on First St, right or east on Peabody Ave, right or south on Fourth St, right or west on Windsor Road, back to the parking lot. Park in Carle's Sport Clinic parking lot using spaces nearest to the entrance road.
(For our summer route we start at the Meadowbrook Park shelter at Windsor Road and Vine at 6:00 pm. The route is the perimeter of Meadowbrook Park.)
Wednesday Speedwork
We are currently running our winter speedwork workouts.
We typically meet at the State Farm Center parking lot at 6:00 pm at the corner of Fourth and Florida. The workout varies from running the ramps at Memorial Stadium, loops around the State Farm Center itself or around one of the State Farm Center parking lots. Depending on weather we may meet and run at a multi-level parking garage on campus or run inside the UofI Armory, usually later at 7pm due to their schedule.
(In the summer we normally we meet at the parking lot at the corner of Lincoln Avenue and St. Mary's Road. Always check our FaceBook page first in case we run on a local track or make a change due to weather.)
The workout is run by one of our volunteers.
Thursday Run from Riggs
Year around we run from the Riggs Beer Company at 1901 S High Cross Road in Urbana on Thursdays. We meet at 6pm and run a roughly 4 mile route through the Stone Creek neighborhood and back to Riggs. Stay for beer and the food trucks. In the winter be sure to bring reflective gear and lighting as some of the route is not well lit.
Saturday Training Runs
Starting in January we run a training program for the spring running of the Illinois Race Weekend. Details and sign up for this training program can be found here.
Over the summer there are regular runs scheduled into the fall for those training for marathons or half marathons throughout the year. The schedule for 2024 is TBA.
