The Nittany Valley Running Club has been holding Saturday morning group runs since the middle of July 2003. Lately, we've been getting ore or more options every weekend. Keep an eye on the Group Runs page here on the NVRC web site, or join the Google Group NVRC to get the current week’s run plan. Group runs are shown on our main calendar. The group runs appear on the main calendar. Or, you can click on any date on the mini-calendar below to see what's going on that day.

There are often local races that many in the club participate in and there may not be an organized group run on those days. If there's not a scheduled run check out the race calendar.

The group runs attract a wide range of ability. Typically, group runs are listed with a proposed distance and approximate pace. Some group runs can be 5 miles or so at a 10 minute mile pace, others might be marathon training length (15 or more miles), and at a pace under 8 minuters per mile!We try to separate runs that are longer and/or faster from those that are shorter and/or slower paced.  On most runs, there is usually an option to go shorter, which some runners take, and an option for those who want a longer training run. The whole group is usually together for at least a few miles.

For a little more about the pace and mileage of the various group runs, see "Can I Keep Up With You?"

We are always looking for organizers for the runs. All it requires is for you to let us know so we can post the time, place, and a description of what you plan to do. Email Marty Mazur at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. if you can help!
