Registration Open for NCRC's Spring Forth — April 22-29
Registration is now open for NCRC's Spring Forth, our unique scavenger run photo challenge. It's a great way to celebrate spring and nature while contributing to two worthy organizations: Girls on the Run of the Triangle and the City of Oaks Foundation! You can easily win more value in a prize or prizes than you pay for registration. We give you 10 categories of photos to take of places where you run or walk. If you post photos on our event website in at least seven of the categories over the eight days of the event (April 22-29), you win a $10 credit to eligible Capstone Event Group races and become eligible to enter our gift prize drawing on April 30 (click the Donors tab to see who's contributing this year). A new addition this year is a kickoff event on April 21 at Raleigh's Lake Lynn Park (click the Calendar tab for details and to RSVP). Spring Forth registration ends at 11:59 p.m. EDT on April 21.

Welcome to NCRC
Welcome to the North Carolina Roadrunners Club, commonly known as NCRC! We're a nonprofit organization that's a member club of the Road Runners Club of America, one of 23 RRCA clubs in North Carolina. We're based in Raleigh, where our club began in 1979 (see the About NCRC tab for more details). NCRC hosts three races each year, ranging in length from 5K to half-marathon, and holds two annual fund-raising events (see the NCRC Races/Events tab for details). Benefits of becoming a club member include race and in-store discounts, a bimonthly online newsletter, and a member rewards program. We also hold social runs and other events throughout the year (see the Calendar tab). All runners and walkers are welcome to join us! If you're new to the Triangle, check out Triangle Running Websites under the Resources tab.
White Oak Greenway Social Run — Sunday
For our March social run, we'll meet at 2 p.m. on Sunday afternoon at the Bottle Theory Craft Beer and Wine store next to the White Oak greenway in Apex. After a group photo, we can take off for a 2-mile walk or a 3- or 4-mile run on the greenway. If you head west on the greenway, it connects to the American Tobacco Trail. After returning, we can enjoy refreshments and socialize at Bottle Theory, which has outdoor seating. Those who are running the Tobacco Road Marathon or Half Marathon the weekend before can reminisce about your race.
