Welcome to the Sparta Runners Club!

The Sparta Runners Club, Inc. (SRC) is a group of runners and joggers from Sparta and the surrounding areas of New Jersey. Our charter is to provide a way for you to meet with other recreational and competitive runners of all abilities to train, exchange information, provide support and develop friendship, fellowship and camaraderie.

Quick note about this site: The Club Calendar and Gallery utilize Google features and will open in new windows. Anywhere we have a link to a page that is not SRC, it should open in a new window as well.

The Basics

The core club activities are a “short” Wednesday night run around Sparta, and “longer” run held on either Saturday or Sunday morning, usually at 8 AM. Mileage is determined by members’ preferences or goals. Our weekend runs are scheduled at a variety of locations, including routes in and around Sparta as well as at New Jersey’s many beautiful runner-friendly parks and trails that are within driving distance, such as the Paulinskill and Sussex Trails in Lafayette, Patriots Path, Palisades Park, Ridgewood, Columbia Trail, and Morristown’s Loantaka Park.

You don’t have to be fast or competitive to join! We welcome runners of all levels, whether you run for competition, recreation, or just to stay in shape. No pace is too slow or fast, all abilities are welcomed. While our weekend runs offer some of our runners an opportunity to challenge themselves with run distances of 10 or more miles, there is no pressure to run long distances, and you will always find someone in the group to run any distance you are comfortable with.

Interested? Why not join us on our next group weekend run and find out more! Check out the Club Calendar or send an email to let us know you'll be there.
