Run with your local, lovable misfit runners
Come run with us — no matter your pace, background, or experience.
We’re Yinz Run Club, a free, friendly, all-levels running community based in Pittsburgh. Whether you're lacing up for your very first run or you're a seasoned marathoner, there's a spot for you here.
We believe running should be fun, inclusive, and something you look forward to. So we keep it simple: show up, run your pace, and enjoy the vibes. No pressure. No judgment. Just good people moving together.

WHAT are “Rotating Locations”
We rotate between different businesses around Pittsburgh to keep things fresh and explore the city together. Think: Lawrenceville, Southside, the North Shore, and more. For the most up to date information, Follow us @yinzrunclub on instagram and sign up for the newsletter for weekly updates!
our Runs
We have two offerings: Run Crew and Trails. Run Crew happens every Wednesday on road. We offer a 3 mi and 1 mi route option, so you can pick what works for you. At Trails, we run dirt. 3 miles, on hills, mud, rocks, parks, and elevation. We promise it’s fun. Both offerings are no drop - no runners left behind at YRC!
After a little intro, we’ll split into pace groups (led by volunteers), do a quick warm-up, and then we’re off!
Pace Groups?
We offer 8:30–11:30 min/mile pace groups at our Wednesday Run Crew, and our 1 mile is paceless. At Trails, we have two pace groups that run a little faster and a little slower. All pace groups are led by volunteers pacers with sweepers at the back. They’re here to keep you safe, run with folks at your speed, and make every mile more fun and encouraging.
After the Run
When your pace group returns from your run, you’ll have time to eat, drink, and meet some new friends. It’s low-key and totally optional, but a great way to meet other misfits and celebrate the run. At our Trails run, we always have free coffee supplied by De Fer Coffee and Tea, and everyone is encouraged to bring a snack to share!
Strollers, Dogs & Vibes Welcome
Bring your pup. Push a stroller. Wear jorts. Be yourself. Yinz Run Club is about community, movement, and good energy. Have more questions? DM us @yinzrunclub or join our Discord.
