The Hartford Track Club boasts approximately 500 members who live and run in almost every community in Connecticut; from Winsted to Salem and New Haven to Vernon.
If you\'re looking to find your running niche, our club is a great place to start. Within our ranks are trail racers who train together and compete on the New England Trail circuit, seniors (60+) who qualify then compete in the national senior olympics, ultra-marathoners who regularly train and race at distances from 30-100 miles, and everything in-between. It isn't unusual to see men and women spanning several generations represented at our group runs. The pace varies just as greatly; anywhere from 5-12 minutes per mile.
Other perks include discounted club uniform, a monthly club newsletter, club sponsored races, bus trips to major running events including the Boston Marathon, an annual awards banquet, a winter race series, and more.
See the website for more information about the club, including membership information.
