Group Runs/Walks

Click here for a great article from Runner's World about the importance of the long run

Walkers and Runners of All Paces are Welcome!

All group training runs and walks start right on time, so plan to arrive 5-10 minutes early to ask questions about the route, find a running partner, or to warm up, stretch, or socialize.

Tuesdays
Time: 6:00 p.m.
Location: Meet in front of the downtown Bradenton branch of the Manatee County Library 1301 Barcarrota Blvd W, Bradenton, FL 34205. Click here for directions.
Routes of 3 to 6 miles are available.

6 Mile Winter Route: From the library, head over the Green Bridge, the pier, towards Riverside Cafe (water stop available at the marina), continue west along water, turn right on 12th, go to the intersection of 12th and 4th and turn around. On the way back you have shorter route options, but to complete the six mile route, go back over the bridge, then under the bridge through Rossi Park. Go to the end of the riverwalk, turn left on Riverside Drive, go to the end, run around the triangular island in the road, then head back along riverwalk, under the bridge, to the library.

Shorter route options: After the pier, head back over the bridge for 2.7 miles. Or go to water stop then head back for 3.3 miles. If you go to the turn around at 12th & 4th and then back over the bridge to the library, that's 4 miles.
