About W2RC

The Walk to Run Club was started in 2016 as a new way for us to come together as a community in pursuit of good health. It has become a mainstay during the spring, summer and fall months, giving us a chance to get together on Thursday evenings to walk, run and roll our way into feeling better and healthier. All are welcome and there is room for every level of fitness and ability. Take it at your own pace or push yourself and your mates.
