More Information
Worried you can't keep up with the pack? Don't be. The Olathe Running Club offers programs for all skill sets from walkers to full marathoners and beyond. We welcome runners from the entire Johnson County area. Club members include beginners as well as those that win their age group in local races.
We keep the runs short (3-6mi) and keep the pace easy. We will try to have water, cups, and more available to support you. You are welcome to eat together with us afterwards (refueling is important!) and talk about running.
If you are training toward a specific goal, distance or time and need a more intense, longer work out or specific training, we encourage you to participate in our marathon/half marathon training program(s).
