About Conway Running Club

Originally founded in 1992 by Don Potter, Conway Running Club is a a 501(c)3 non-profit, volunteer led community organization which strives to maintain a vibrant community of runners in Conway, Arkansas and surrounding cities, dedicated to fostering fitness, fun, and friendship through running. Whether you’re just getting started, training for a race, or a seasoned runner, our club offers something for everyone. 

In 2022 we created our "Forward Is A Pace" motto. We want everyone to feel invited and know that they matter, no matter what pace they are at!

We host regular group runs, fun runs, and various events throughout the year to help members of all skill levels stay active and connected. With a focus on inclusivity and support, we aim to create a welcoming space where runners can meet new friends, challenge themselves, and achieve their personal fitness goals.

Join us as we run, race, and support each other in a positive and encouraging environment. Together, we make running in Conway more than just a sport—it’s a way of life!


WHY JOIN CONWAY RUNNING CLUB? 
 
1. MEET OTHER RUNNERS: It’s a great way to meet runners and walkers of all paces. We have groups that meet every week to run at paces of anywhere from 6-minute to 12-minute miles. We have walkers in our club if you are not a runner.

2. GET INVOLVED: The Conway Running Club is involved in several local races. It’s fun to volunteer your time at these races.

3. LEARN: Learn from other runners by coming to the monthly meetings to listen to the knowledgeable speakers and ask questions to well-seasoned runners. Learn running tips at our weekly group runs.

4. HAVE FUN: Fun is what life is all about! Conway Running Club hosts a few social events and have some of the best social events around! We meet monthly for our board meetings and quarterly for membership meetings. We also have events throughout the year as we get more involvement from club members.
NOTE: We are currently struggling to find people to get involved with club planning which makes it hard when we are a volunteer led organization. We currently have over half our board chair positions open for 2025. We would LOVE for you to get involved!

5. GET STARTED RUNNING: Starting a fitness program can be tough. Pointers, words of encouragement, or a new exercise partner can be just the motivation you need to get you on the roads and running.

6. GRAND PRIX: Run in the statewide Grand Prix Series competing with others in your age group and as a Conway Running Club teammate.
