Events

One of the main goals of GCAC is to provide opportunities for adult members to also get together for easy group runs and quality speed/track workouts.

GCAC Board Member Hannah Gildersleeve has stepped up to organize adult group runs.

You do NOT have to be a member of the Grove City Athletics Club to participate in our adult group training - just show up!

GCAC Adult members primarily meet on Sundays for easy-paced Group Runs.

All paces and distances are welcome! Don't worry if you think you are too slow or cannot run far enough!

The time of the run changes, but usually meets at the Grove City High School Track (Forker Field, 112 E. Poplar St., Grove City, PA 16127).

If interested in being added to Hannah's email and/or texting list, email GroveCityAC@gmail.com with your name, email and/or phone number.

Typically, this is our schedule:

Sundays

TIME: 1pm; 8am (when weather gets hot in summer)
LOCATION: meet at the Grove City High School Track parking lot for an easy run/walk or long run (mostly road running). Address: 112 E. Poplar St, Grove City, PA 16127. All paces and distances welcome!

Tuesdays

Meet at Grove City College track in early morning for a "speed" workout or easy running/walking in the outside lanes.
