It’s Never Too Late to Start Your Journey toward Mental and Physical Health, Make New Friends and HAVE FUN!

We are a female-specific running community that focuses on the fun, social, non-competitive side of running. We provide a safe, friendly and fun environment for women to run together. It’s a great way to get fit and make new friends while you’re at it. Building a community of support is just as important as getting out and moving.

Taking the first step as a new runner/walker can be overwhelming and intimidating. Many women find that a supportive place like our 261 Fearless Club is a great place to start. For more experienced runners, we offer a space where you can complement your own training while you encourage and inspire women new to the sport. Women of all abilities train together, support and encourage each other through running inspired activities and games. It is a revolution of women’s empowerment, allowing fearless women to pass their strength gained through running to others.

Give yourself, your family and friends this life-changing gift of empowerment! We are waiting for you!

Sports bra

If you have one; our coaches will be able to advise you if you don’t. In the meantime, just wear the most supportive bra you have and perhaps a tight fitting vest too to give extra support.
