About Us

Welcome To JoinTheRun

JoinTheRun is a free platform built to bring runners and organisers together. Whether you’re chasing a personal best, starting your first 5K, or just looking for a social jog with others, our goal is simple: to make it easier for you to find your next run.

Our Mission

Running is more than just exercise — it’s community, connection, and shared experience. We believe every runner should have access to events, clubs, and groups in their area without barriers. That’s why JoinTheRun will always be free to use for both runners and organisers.

What We Do

For runners: We help you discover races, parkruns, and running clubs near you.

For organisers: We provide a simple way to promote your events to an engaged audience, with no hidden costs.

For the community: We support local running by making events easier to find, share, and join.

Why JoinTheRun?

Too often, runners have to hunt across different websites and social pages to find events. We wanted to change that. With JoinTheRun, everything comes together in one place — making it easy to search, connect, and run together.

Our Promise

Free for everyone — no paywalls, no hidden fees.

Easy to use — clear event listings, calendars, and maps.

Community-first — we’re here to support organisers, not commercialise them.

How JoinTheRun Works

Three simple steps to finding your next running adventure.

Search

Type in your location and choose your run type — whether it’s a race, a friendly club session, or a weekend parkrun. Our calendar and map make it easy to see what’s happening close to home or in places you’re visiting.

Join

Once you’ve found a run, you can register instantly or contact the organiser for more details. Whether you’re an experienced runner or just starting out, you’ll be welcomed into a community that runs at all paces.

Run Together

Show up, lace up, and run with others who share your passion. From chasing personal bests to jogging for fun, JoinTheRun helps you find people who make running more social, supportive, and rewarding.
