We’re lacing up. Engedi Run Club kicks off October 13, and you’re invited.

This is a come-as-you-are community for walkers, runners, and ruckers. Whether you’re training for something, getting back into movement, or just want good people to start your morning with, there’s a spot for you. Dogs and strollers are welcome too.

How it works

We gather at Engedi Mind Body, 395 E. Summerlin St, in downtown Bartow. Water and restrooms are available.

Each session offers route options, usually 1, 2, or 3 miles, so you can pick the distance that fits your day. Routes are marked in Strava, so you can preview them ahead of time. Plan on about an hour, or until you finish the distance you chose.

When we meet

• Tuesdays, 5:45 pm. Stick around afterward for Mobility Lab if you want.
• Thursdays, 8:00 am. A great fit for beginners and anyone getting back into running or interested in a nice morning walk. Stay for Stretch at 9:30, perhaps or maybe a coffee afterwards.
• Saturdays, 7:00 am. Starting October 24, with longer runs to come.

What it costs

Nothing! Run Club is free, but you do need to register through the app so we know who’s coming. If no one is registered 12 hours before a session, we may cancel it, so be sure to sign up early.

Who’s leading

Melissa Witmer (a certified running coach) and Scott will co-lead.

Come say hi at the OctoberFast Fun Run

You’ll find us at Main Street Bartow’s OctoberFast Fun Run on Saturday, October 17. Stop by, meet the team, and ask us anything.
