Canberra Run Clubs on the Map

A Canberra run club is the simplest way to get a regular session without organising the route yourself. The same groups are on the ACT run clubs page.

Run clubs to start with

Check the club page for the meeting point and the usual pace. Days below are what each club currently lists.

  • Canberra Runners: Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. The widest set of days.
  • Lake Tuggeranong Running Club: Tuesday, Friday and Sunday. A southside option.
  • Burley Griffin Canberra: Saturday and Sunday.
  • Kudos Running: Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.
  • Underground Run Club: Friday.

How to choose a Canberra run club

Pick the session you will actually reach after work. A Tuggeranong night is a poor fit if you are on the north side, and the reverse is true. Then check the day and whether the write-up sounds social or structured. Most of these groups are free to try. Read the club page anyway, because coached sessions sometimes cost.

The directory at the top of this page is the full trending list. Open a club, save it, and go once before you decide it is yours.
