*=Memorial Park is located at 850 E. Center Street in Provo.

*=Diamond Fork is located up Spanish Fork Canyon on the left while going up the hill towards the old dam.  More details on the trailhead to come.

 

 


The club runs a few times a week and the runs are attended by runners of all ages and abilities. If you like competition, you'll find it at the club runs. On the other hand, if you're a middle of the pack or beginning runner, you'll find plenty of company at our club runs. Despite the high amounts of runners proudly wearing the eagle in the top finish places at many races, the majority of people that show up to group runs are amazing people that are not necessarily amazingly fast. We are keen to recruit new members of ALL levels and abilities, whether you are just starting on a fitness program or you want to run a marathon and beyond.


Thank your for your interest in the Sojourners Running Club. We are open to all those who wish to join. To join the club, visit or call the store: 801-223-7010. To drop us a line, click here.
