Why should you join a run club, and how to find the perfect one FOR YOU!

Ever wanted to join a run club, but have no idea where to start? Never considered it before? Well let us show you why you should!

Run clubs have taken over the running world, giving people more opportunities to connect with new people, keep healthy and challenge themselves. However, it may feel daunting finding the right club, or heading along for your first group run.

Brooks Running wants to see more people tying up their laces and hitting the pavement, so let’s chat all things run clubs!

Physical health and fitness:

It’s a no brainer, run clubs are awesome for your physical health. Getting up and keeping active, whether you’re running a marathon or a lap of our local track, any movement is movement and can only benefit your physical health. Many run clubs aren’t paced or distanced focused – so don’t sweat it if you’re not the fastest or most experienced runner, majority of run clubs have a holistic approach to health and fitness where you can only grow and improve!

Build a supportive network:

The running community can easily be one of the most welcoming and supportive networks there is. A run club is the perfect way to meet new people or even reconnect with current networks! They create a safe space where people can achieve a common goal and support each other towards such motivations. You might even find your new running bestie

Structure, motivation and confidence

Run clubs can help build routine for those who may struggle with structure, and even accountability. Being committed to a run club at the same time and place every week makes it easier to stay committed to your goals. Knowing your running crew is expecting you makes us less likely to flake out, rather show up and smash our goals! Run clubs can provide us with an overall positive cycle, as we have better routine with commitment, leaving us feeling more motivated and overall improved confidence. How good!!!

Bottom line, the ideal time of day to exercise is when it is best for you. Although more research is needed in this area to draw a conclusion on exactly what time of day is the best to exercise, what we do know is that long-term exercise does in fact improve aerobic capacity, cardiac function, management of BMI, and strength.
