We run and explore the roads and trails of Oakland and Berkeley every week. Road Runs are typically in the 4-6 mile range, Trail Runs are in the 5-8 mile range. You can also sign up for a separate run (and store insider) email list for free at either TRANSPORTS location.

Updated: April 16, 2013 About us Welcome trail runners! News Schedule in 2013 Our regular weekly morning group trail runs take place on: Tuesdays 6 AM, Thursdays 6 AM, and easy Sundays 10 AM in Berkeley. Other runs take place in Oakland and other areas of the East Bay. New members of all paces are invited to drop-in and attend meets for a free trial month.

Do you want to explore San Francisco by foot? Tired of your usual routes, but want to stay in the city? Do you sometimes think "there have to be some great places to run in this city"? Well, you're right, there are, and we're going to run them. This group is for those who love to run, and also would like to explore SF and learn some new go-to routes. Runs will be scheduled frequently, and will always leave from, and stay within, the city limits.  Other than those restrictions, we'll be free to g …

I was trying to find a group to run with on regular basis and this is my attempt to make one. The goal is to train for various races and find running partners. This would be especially awesome for longer runs and they fly by faster with friends. I'm hoping to get in a longer run on the weekend, a few short runs and an intermediate run during the week. Come to all or just one! Most (all?) of the runs will be in the city. Races that I'd like to run: 1. San Francisco marathon (half or full) - Jun …

This group is affiliated with Inside Trail Racing (www.InsideTrail.com). It is for trail runners dedicated to training for their next race, their friends they want to drag along, and for new runners considering participating in an event or just have other people to run with. We will meet every Wednesday and on non-race weekends for longer runs.

This is a group for women of any age or athletic ability in the Vallejo Benicia area interested in getting together for walking and running. Let's get together, and have some fun while we get or stay in shape by walking and running. We have beautiful places to get out and just do it here in our area; Mare Island, the Vallejo and Benicia Waterfronts, and Blue Rock ( to name a few). Additionally, we are not far from regional parks and East Bay trails. Suggestions are welcome for where to meet up! …

Voted BEST RUNNING CLUB in the Bay AREA!* Go WOW Team! Meet weekdays and weekends to walk or run 3 miles or more at various locations throughout the Bay Area. Our group is social but fitness is our goal. Minimum requirement is that you can move for 60 minutes already. The pace doesn't matter. Some of us walk for fitness. Some of us mix walking/running. Some of us are pretty serious runners and are training to improve our times. Most of us participate in a race once in a while. I encourage wome …

It all started as a way to combine getting a run in at my favorite micro-brew pub, and now I'd love to expand it further! We'll use this group as a way to do our Iron Springs Pub Runs, both winter and summer, but also to introduce more training runs, both trail and road, both on the streets of San Anselmo, Ross and Fairfax and the trails of Mt. Tam!

A chance for true beginners to meet up and go for an easy run/walk without having to worry about being intimidated by speed and distance! Coached and led by Charles Yoakum, you'll pick a distance from 1 to 3 miles to go, and work on breathing, pace and simply putting one foot in front of the other to get a workout! For true beginners looking for support and the chance to get active!

Come out and meet other local runners for great camaraderie and motivation. Some of us jog, some of us run, some of us race, but we all have fun! The key is to show up and give it a try -- the sooner you come out and join us, the sooner you will be on the road to fitness, health, and meeting lifelong running friends!

ChiRunning is an effortless and injury-free running technique that will make you feel like you are running like the wind! My goal in creating this meetup group is to create a ChiRunning Community here in the SF Bay Area, where our focus is on running more naturally, feeling lighter and more efficient, reducing impact and feeling simply amazing when we run. Blending principles of Tai Chi, including core strength and posture, an inner focus, and the natural flow of energy, with the power and str …

McClaren Park's trails are perfect for a 3-6 mile trail run. This group is for anyone who wants to run trails but doesn't want to get in the car to go running. 9-10 minute milers, dogs OK. Perfect for that mid-week late afternoon/evening training run. Casual, non-competitive.

This group is inspired by Marin Social Runners group, a fun and motivating running group in Marin. Since I live in Petaluma and can't attend their weekday runs, I wanted to start something closer to home for weekday morning runs. Like the Marin group, I'd like this one to be for intermediate runners to do 5-13 mile runs, at a pace of 9-12 minute miles. But all members from beginners to advanced are welcome to post runs that suit your pace and skill set.

We are a group of intermediate to experienced runners who like to keep our runs social!  If you're a newer runner or coming back from injury, we welcome you to join us for a few miles as you are able.  The majority of our runs are on the trails in Marin, with some road running and track workouts.  We also do destination runs in the East Bay, Sonoma, and San Francisco.  Our run mileage varies from around 5 miles up to 20+, but runners are always welcome to adjust mileage shorter or longer.  We em …

Jogging is local - It is much easier to run in your own neighborhood. Let's run after work and on weekends in our nieghborhood. The Marina offers a bunch of great runs either along the Bay or through the Presido with fantastic views. My goal is to have 2x a week runs between 4 and 6 miles at a moderate, conversational pace. Join in! Meet others in your local area to run with. Plan group runs and participate in various long and short distance running. On weekends, we will try to have brunch af …

It's pretty straightforward. We're a group of people that like to run and have fun! Every Wednesday we meet at a different local bar throughout San Fran, RUN, and always have the end destination be that same bar, where we cool down and socialize over drinks. If you're in your 20-30s (or just think you can hang) with a fun and outgoing personality looking to meet new people, then come join us! We welcome runners at all different paces.  Everyone can find someone at their pace to run with.  It is …

Hi! I've been wanting to get into running but I'm super slow, battle asthma and would like the safety of a group to run with. This group will be for beginning runners, all ages, all genders and for slow pokes who would like to become runners. We can meet in the evenings (7:30/8:00) at Kezar for walk/jogs and hopefully keep each other motivated enough to eventually become runners!

We are a new meet-up group of active trail runners and mountain bikers (ok a maybe a roadie ride or two thrown in to mix things up) from the Benicia/Vallejo area and anywhere else for that matter.  All levels welcome as I'm not the most proficient mt biker. We can meet and do a run or ride then have a libation afterwards at a local spot. We can run/ride local as I know many of the trails or we can go out a bit...Marin, Rockridge, Lynch Canyon when it opens again. Probably meet on weekends for no …

The Alameda Running and Walking Club is for everyone that wants to enjoy the beauty of Alameda while walking, jogging and running.

All levels are welcome to join. Any member can suggest a Meetup so please feel free to organize walks and runs throughout the island of Alameda. Please post pictures from a …

There are so many hiking groups, but I wanted to start a group for runners like me that prefer to run the trails than the streets.

For those who love to run, but only have time to get out at night! For people who can handle the cold and fog...and werewolves and monsters. Bring a flashlight and come out! We can play it by ear and run a different trail every week and play games on and off the track. Meet at Kezar track at 8PM on the scheduled day and message me if you have questions.

Love to run?  Love to explore?   Runsploring is the ultimate combination.  This group is aimed at staying active, having fun, being social, and exploring the hidden gems of San Francisco.  Although we like to get a workout, Runsploring is a laid back activity and we don't take ourselves too seriously. As a Runsplorer, we pick a starting location and route.  Then we run at a comfortable pace and stop if we come across an amazing view, landmark,  or anything else that sparks our interest.  The u …

Welcome to our Meetup page! I started this group to bring together local West Marin folk who enjoy staying fit and want to meet new people.  I moved to Bolinas about 2 months ago and have been finding it increasingly difficult to drive "over the hill" for social activities.  So I decided to try and create a community of fitness-minded people right here at the coast, where beautiful trails and vistas abound. What to expect I plan to put 1 or 2 runs on the calendar every week.  Runs will be in Bo …

This group is for casual runners who want to run in SOMA.
