How to join
Front Runners runs as a membership-based program, so start on the network's own page to register or find a session near you. Whatever the network, open the local group's page or socials for the exact meeting spot, day, and time before your first run — those details change more often than you would think, and some groups only post updates on Facebook, Meetup, or Strava.
