Berkeley Running Club

FYI - Many more people attend this run regularly who don't RSVP on the Meetup Group. We generally get 8-20 people on a weekly basis, depending on the weather. Walkers are also welcome!
This is a regular weekly run that's been going on since about 2001 for people of all speeds including walkers. We start running at 7am SHARP so don't be late! (Earlybirds can start at 6:30am.) We meet in the gravel parking area directly across the street from the entrance to the Doubletree Hotel. Then we split up into smaller groups based on preferred speed and distance. Slower runners and walkers welcome. Distances: 2-4-5-6 or even 8 miles depending on your route. Most of us run along the perimeter and some run into McLaughlin East Bay State Park, Brickyard Cove and/or Berkeley Aquatic Park. Most of us finish @8:00am and go for a quick coffee at Peet's at 1776 Fourth St, Berkeley, CA 94710. Depending on your speed and distance, you may end up running alone (especially speed demons), but you will have company at the beginning and end. Please join us!

Join the BRC for a trail run!

This run is intended for beginning runners who want to try the trails. The run will be 30 minutes long, at a leisurely pace. Hills, if any, will be gentle. We start punctually, so if you need to stretch or do a warm-up, do that beforehand.

Please be self-sufficient. If you'd like to run more, stick around for the 6:30PM meetup, where there are ample opportunities for distance, speed, and hills. Some of the 6:30 runners may also be doing this as a warm-up run.

Please bring a reliable headlamp and/or flashlight. It’s dark for these runs now.

Hi everyone,

Come out and enjoy a mid-week evening trail run in Tilden Park. Expect anywhere from 5-10 miles with plenty of hills. Anyone and everyone is welcome! Everyone (including the regulars) is urged to RSVP so we can see who's coming. In August/September typically we have 6-14 show up to run.

Depending on who shows up, we may split up the group to accommodate different paces and distances. The trails at Tilden are well marked, and there are plenty of options for extending or shortening runs.

It will be assumed that everyone is self-sufficient and prepared to get back to the parking lot alone. (This is a "run your own pace run". If you're fast, don't feel like you need to wait. If you're a bit slower, don't worry about it, but make sure you know how to get back!)

We meet at the trail head right across the creek from the parking lot. Please post if you need a ride and/or want to carpool, or you have any other concerns.

***** In Fall and Winter***** This becomes a night run. Bring a flashlight or headlamp!

See you on the trail!
