DC Capital Striders Running Group offers free, all-comers group runs around the Washington, D.C. region. Group runs are led by knowledgeable hosts and are open to runners of all paces and ability levels. Paces and distance will vary depending on which runners attend each week. Weekly runs will be listed on each groups Facebook page each week. This is where you can RSVP to the weekly run(s) and ask questions you wish for the run group hosts. Please know your own health. Running can be dangerous and we are not responsible for anything that may happen to you during one of our runs.
Runs may be canceled or rescheduled due to various reasons so check the Facebook pages for the most up to date information. Please only ask to join the Facebook pages if you are interested in running with that group.
