Fort Wayne Running Club

8 reasons you probably shouldn’t sign up for Runners on Pace presented by Fort Wayne Orthopedics
Maybe this race just isn't for you...
1. I don't like summer mornings...so why would I spend one hanging out with a few hundred of my running friends?
2. A safe, mostly flat loop course? I’d much rather battle traffic and confusion!
3. Mile clocks, enthusiastic volunteers, and clear course markings? Sounds exhausting!
4. Running alongside Eagle Marsh Nature Preserve? I'd rather stare at potholes or parking lots!
5. A custom race shirt that people actually compliment? Way too much attention for me!
6. Cash awards, age-group awards, youth award medals...who needs all that recognition?
7. A post-race party with refreshments under the canopy? I’ll pass-I prefer leaving immediately after I finish.
8. Saving money with affordable registration, youth pricing, and FWRC member discounts? Paying more is way more rewarding.

So...if all of that sounds awful, you should probably skip Runners on Pace.
For everyone else...
We'll save you a spot at the starting line.

🇺🇸 Happy Flag Day from the Fort Wayne Running Club! 🇺🇸

Today we celebrate the symbol that represents our freedom, unity, and the opportunity to chase big goals—on the road, the trails, and in life.

At FWRC, we’re proud to run in a country where community matters, support is strong, and every mile is a chance to come together.
