Beginning Runner's Group


For almost a decade, Curt and Nancy Hoegh have led the Capital Striders Beginning Runner's Group. Somewhat of a misnomer, these training sessions aren't just for those new to the sport, but also for former runners who want to get back into shape.

This group has really grown with many returning year after year. A normal session attracts from 40 to 80 runners - so you won't be alone. Get out those running shoes and join us!

What
A running group with the goal of having fun while learning the basics of training and racing.

Who
New or former runners who want to try the sport in a safe and guided environment or those who want to get back into shape after an extended "hiatus."

When
Every Monday at 6:00 PM beginning April 6 and running (no pun intended) through October.

Where
Campbell Park in Clive - east of 128th Street between University and Hickman. Meet at the gazebo. [Google Map]

Why
To have fun, meet other runners, and learn the basics of running while preparing for any of the many area races such as Dam to Dam, Clive Running Festival, Midnight Madness, Capital Pursuit, Living History Farms, and more.

Cost
Free - hard to beat that!
