As runners ourselves, we know the value of a supportive group sharing a passion for running.
At Garrison Running Co. we encourage all runners to make connections that perpetuate a healthy, fun, and sustainable approach to exercise and overall health.

Strava Running Group
Can’t meet in person? Strava Running Group App. is your ticket to staying connected while you run.
Strava allows you to track your kilometers using GPS and analyze your running. You can also join challenges, share photos, and follow the progress of other runners, uniting all of us with every step.
If you find yourself unable to attend our group runs, the Strava Running Group might be ideal for you.
