Running Clubs in Atlanta: A Local Guide
Atlanta has 12 running clubs and group runs in our directory — enough that whatever you’re after, from an easy social jog to a marathon build-up, there’s a group for it here. The scene leans toward 3 track & speed groups, 3 youth programs, 1 social & fun-run crews and 1 women's groups.
Most of these crews meet somewhere social and easy to find — a running store, a brewery or taproom, a park, a track, or a coffee shop — and set off together at a set day and time each week. The great majority of community group runs in Atlanta are free; you simply turn up. Look for a club that mentions pace groups or “no-drop” if you’re worried about keeping up — plenty do.
