The greatest, funnest, and best-looking group of (wannabe) runners in NYC. Well, at least 1/3 of that is true. And we can definitely guarantee fun. Come join us for a workout, a run, a bRUNch, or just come and hang out! We encourage runners of all abilities -- especially if you think you are slow -- to come join us for a fun run. We run, eat a lot of food, make friends, and never take anything too seriously.
