The South Penn Road Runners Club is a close-knit group of local runners who
are all friends, and we always welcome new members, no matter how fast or slow. We
conduct races throughout the year for runners of all abilities and ages. The
South Penn Road Runners want to have fun and share the good times.Our road races
include the Heritage 5 miler in September, the Half Marathon in October, and the
July 4 10K, in cooperation with Hanover Borough. The eight racesummer series can
be won by anyone. The races are decided each week by a different scoring system:
handicap, predicted time, team times, team predicted times, and poker hands. The
Kids Night at the Races track meet for children draws over 200 runners down to
the youngest toddlers completing 100 meters.The South Penn Road Runners help out
with local races like the YMCA 5K Strides for Kids charitable event. The
members of our club know that running is an important part of many people's
lives. Share your enjoyment and commitment with us and watch the value multiply!
