Boulder Collective and The Rayback Collective Run Club

The route is about 3 miles, roughly a 5K, and nobody is timed or sorted by speed. Runners and walkers set out together and finish back at the Rayback. Then the group settles in for drinks, and shoe demos let you try new gear. The club has also mixed in themed extras like costume nights and board game nights.

It suits a newcomer to run clubs, since the pace is yours and the social hour is the point. The Rayback is a food truck park and tap house with a big backyard, so there is room for the whole group to hang out after the run. The club is fairly new and draws good turnouts.
