About

Established in 2001, GGRC runs hard and plays hard. Some of our members are serious athletes training for marathons or ultras, while others enjoy casual runs at a conversational pace.  We are united by our enthusiasm for running among friends in the most beautiful city in California.

We welcome all levels of runners! Please visit the Membership page for more information on member registration process and dues for the 2024 club year. If you are new and want to feel out if GGRC is right for you, feel free to join us for a group run before officially joining the club!
