FAQ
-
What are the paces?
ALL PACES ARE WELCOME! This run is very relaxed and meant to be at a conversational pace. We have leaders and members that run, jog and even walk!
-
What if it is raining?
We run every Wednesday morning rain or shine! We recommend dressing appropriately for the weather and wearing layers in the cold.
-
Wednesday morning parking?
There is plenty of parking at the downtown Asheville YMCA. You can also park up behind the parking lot in the church lot.
-
What should I wear?
You should wear running shoes and workout clothes. Always check the weather and dress accordingly. Layers are great since it can get warmer once you start moving. On Wednesday mornings, we recommend you wear a light of some sort since it is still dark when we start.
-
Why is the group women only?
We wanted to create a safe space for women to run! There are lots of running groups around town that meet in the evenings and that are co-ed. However, we felt that there was a need for a morning run club where women could meet other women and build community.
-
What are pop-up runs?
We occasionally partner with a local business in Asheville and have a “pop-up” run event. These typically take place on Saturday mornings at the partnered business and include a “long run” of 8-10 miles and a “short run” option of 4-5 miles. These events are FREE and there are often deals included to the partnered business!
