Queensland Run Clubs on the Map

A Queensland run club is the simplest way to get a regular session without organising the route yourself. Brisbane and the Gold Coast have the deepest lists. Those cities also have their own pages: Brisbane run clubs and Gold Coast run clubs.

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.

  • Slow Run Club: a Brisbane group built around an easy pace, a reasonable first club if you are new back to running.
  • Run Society: Monday and Friday.
  • Get Up Run Club: Friday.
  • Hedges Run Club: Wednesday, on the Gold Coast.
  • Sunny Coast darkrunners: Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. Several days if you are on the Sunshine Coast.
  • Sole Sisters Run Club: a women’s group. Check the club page for the next session.

How to choose a Queensland run club

Pick the session you will actually reach after work. A Brisbane night is a poor fit if you live on the Gold Coast, 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.

Queensland run clubs by training day
