Runnersville REMIX: Walk & Run Ladies Training Camp — FREE
Runnersville is a FREE 10-week walking and running program for girls and women of all ages, abilities, and fitness levels. Whether you’re brand new, returning after time away, or working toward a personal goal, you’ll find encouragement, structure, and community every step of the way.
Our 2026 season begins Saturday, February 21, 2026, and leads participants toward a graduation 5K (3.1 miles) — the Chocolate & Diamonds 5K on May 2, 2026.
Participants train at their own pace in a welcoming, supportive environment where no one is left behind. Support roles are always welcome — cheering, encouraging, and helping build the Runnersville community is just as valued as training.
