What a running club website needs to do
Running clubs mix beginners and racers. Show your weekly runs, pace groups and how first-timers are welcomed, plus the races your members enter.
Many people want a group but fear being too slow. A page that says all paces are welcome and shows where runs start removes the biggest barrier.
People searching for a running club usually decide in seconds. Your site should answer the questions below before they have to ask.

Weekly schedule
Meet the pace groups
Beginner to fast

Calendar

Timing matters. Spring and fall race seasons drive sign-ups.
