_As the largest and most active running club in New Mexico, the Albuquerque Road Runners consist of a diverse membership of runners and walkers. We are competitive runners, beginning runners, walkers, weekend warriors, ultra-runners, reformed couch potatoes, or any other description that involves putting one foot in front of the other. As a club, we would like to enable runners and walkers of all types to interact and learn about and from each other.

ARR MISSION STATEMENT
The Albuquerque Road Runners Club is an organization of runners and walkers committed to bringing the benefits of these activities to the community using multiple methods. These include, but are not limited to:  sponsoring and supporting running and walking events and training groups; promoting volunteerism in club and community events; supporting other local non-profit organizations with race proceeds and race timing services; and bringing other means of education and encouragement of physical activity to the community at large. We welcome runners and walkers of all ages, abilities,  and backgrounds.

Handicap Runs

Our time-handicapped fun runs are free and are designed to equalize participants of different speeds. Each runner or walker is assigned a start time:  a slower-paced runner will start earlier than a faster-paced runner. These are all-comers events!

The six-month handicap series begins in November and runs through April. A free pair of shoes is awarded to the points winner for the series.

Burque Brewery Tour

Kelley Garcia presents four stops on the tour. Everyone welcome to participate!

Women in Training

Women-in-Training is a 10-week program to prepare beginning women runners, run-walkers, and walkers for their first 5K, the Women's Distance Festival in July. All levels are welcome to participate.

Adopted Trail Cleanup

NEXT CLEANUP

The Albuquerque Road Runners have adopted a very useful stretch of bike/pedestrian trail on the West Side, and twice a year a cleanup day is scheduled. Members are urged to volunteer.
