Wednesday Night Hills & Stairs

Global Running Day 2026- Wednesday Night Hills & Stairs
Way to show up Grand Rapids! We had a beautiful evening running the streets of downtown together. We are thankful for each and every one of you; you make this community a wonderful place to be!

And big shout out to each of our vendors who showed up, donated prizes, and helped us kick off the summer running season. We look forward to partnering with you throughout the year.

Wanted to pass along some progress on the hillside revamp news. This has been planned for years and obviously lots of funds are needed as they look to overhaul a lot in that area along Division between 196 and Mason to make travel for pedestrians, bicycles, and handicap safer to traverse from Fairview at the top of Lookout down to Division and then to Monroe and the Grand River.

No matter the weather, we run on Wednesdays! ❄️

Wishing everyone a wonderful holiday season! We're so thankful for the wonderful running community we have here in Grand Rapids who truly feel like family. 🎄🌟💕

As we go into winter fun, just wanted to remind everyone that if you choose to join us for our weekly runs, your safety is our priority. Drive slow to get to City Built, wear traction devices such as Kahtoola, wear layers, bright lights, ski goggles, whatever to get you through the wintery mix! Be mindful of drivers not paying attention to runners crossing roads, driveways, etc. If you want to just show up to to hang out, that's a solid option too! 🍺

We meet every Wednesday evening at 5:30 and 6:30 in front of or inside City Built. No matter if it's a holiday, if it's snowing, raining, tornado-ing, frigid temps below zero, hot and humid temps in the triple digits, windy or Kroll in a speedo. We get through it all! You show up at your discretion and desired pace. We'll be here. Someone will. 😅🥶🌨️

5:30p and 6:30p group meeting times. Both will be running the winter route. Don't forget your lights!
