Group Runs

Run Tampa has a group run every Saturday and Sunday morning, unless we have a group race, every Tuesday morning, and every Thursday evening, except no Thursday run during June, July, and August.

Check the Locations page to see photos and learn about each venue, including parking details, maps, restroom locations, distances.

Saturday is long run day; it’s our main run of the week. They rotate locations. See schedule below.

Sundays, we run the Riverwalk from Curtis Hixon Park on the first and third Sunday. We run Safety Harbor on the second Sunday and Upper Tampa Bay Trail on the fourth Sunday. ***When there is a fifth Sunday, that run is from Curtis Hixon Park.

Thursday night runs are also from Hyde Park Village. ***Note the Thursday night runs are on hiatus for June, July, and August. See details under the LOCATIONS tab.

Procedure: All runs for all levels. We circle for introductions and photo, then all start, stringing out according to pace. There is a specific route, but we always have people doing shorter runs and others continuing for more miles. No pressure to keep up with anyone else or slow down to stay with others. You do you.

Rain policy: We run in rain, not in a deluge, never in lightning. We make the call one hour prior. If 50% chance of thunderstorms, we cancel, post on Facebook, and send message via the Stack Team app.

Visitors/guests: Club members are welcome to bring guests. Non-members are invited to try a couple of runs before joining. Please reach out to Club Director Deb Voiles, first, via the Contact Form, to request a Visitor Waiver.
