Although, it is true that Purdue Running Club has some competitive runners, there are also many runners who never run races and are not competitive. Do not worry about being too slow to join the Purdue Running Club. We will accomodate you!

There are members of the club racing almost every weekend. Sometimes multiple races in a single weekend. However, you are not required to ever attend a race.

Training runs are usually split up into 2 or 3 different mileages. These mileages are 3-5, 5-7, and 7 or more miles. You are welcome to run less if you wish.

Of course. No prior running experience is necessary to join the club, and if you ask the members will be more than happy to share training tips.

Many of our members have class conflicts. We fully understand this and training runs are NOT mandatory. If you still wish to run on these days send an email to the mailing list, runclub@lists.csociety.org, and you will probably find someone to run with.
