Sparta Runners Club

Full Description:

We are a group of runners and joggers from Sparta and the surrounding areas of New Jersey. Our charter is to provide a way for you to meet with other recreational and competitive runners of all abilities to train, exchange information, provide support and develop friendship, fellowship and camaraderie. The core Club activity is a weekly group run, held on either Saturday or Sunday morning. We also meet weekly on Wednesday evenings for a shorter run of about 4-5 miles. Our weekend runs are scheduled at a variety of locations, including routes in and around Sparta as well as at New Jersey’s many beautiful runner-friendly parks and trails that are within driving distance, such as Paulinskill Trails in Lafayette, Patriots Path, Ridgewood, Columbia Trail, and Morristown’s Loantaka Park. You don’t have to be fast or competitive to join! We welcome runners of all levels, whether you run for competition, recreation, or just to stay in shape. No pace is too slow or fast, all abilities are welcomed. While our weekend runs offer some of our runners an opportunity to challenge themselves with run distances of 10 or more miles, there is no pressure to run long distances, and you will always find someone in the group to run any distance you are comfortable with.
