THE FORMAT
come on the journey
WELCOME SOCIAL
The leads will arrive around 6pm and runners start rolling in shortly after! Music will be blasting and the vibes are always high because you know what they say? "It's always sunny on Wednesdays!"
WARM UP
We are known for our warm-ups. They are fun, usually timed to the drop, and bring our community together. There's also a very high-chance we make ourselves look like fools in the middle of the warmup circle to try and get a laugh from you.
RUN 1.3 KMS
Leaving from Morton Park in English Bay, you'll instantly get a glimpse into why we chose this route along the seawall. It simply can't be beat.
BOOTCAMP STOP #1
(optional)
We have 3 optional bootcamp stops throughout our ONE runs. Some people use them as a break to catch their breath, some use them to meet someone new, and others use them to make their workout extra sweaty! We don't take them too seriously and they're always a lot of fun!
RUN 1.3 KMS
Shakeout the legs after the bootcamp as we head to our next spot! You're sure to be warmed up by now! You'll probably be running with a new friend you made at the first bootcamp stop. With the music blasting from one of the 11 speakers we usually run with, you'll see why people keep coming back to One Run Club.
BOOTCAMP STOP #2
(optional)
You're in it now! In the summer months, this is when that gorgeous sunset glow usually lights us up and makes you forget you already ran 3kms!
In the winter this is where you start to feel the power of community and remind yourself how much this would suck if you had to do it alone. But you don't. You're here now!
RUN 1.3 KMS
This is when you question how the leads and volunteers have so much energy left to give. Let it rub off on you and join the fun! You'll be surrounded by people smiling, dancing, and having a good time as we make our way to the 3rd and final bootcamp stop!
BOOTCAMP STOP #3
(optional)
Last little burner before the final stretch & social hang! These bootcamp stops are a way for us to keep the group together for most of the run while also adding a unique dynamic and keep us warm all throughout. Ok, off you go!
HOME STRETCH
You're on the homestretch! Pick up the pace or slow it right down, it doesn't matter because we always designate a sweeper so you'll never be at the back by yourself. When we say no one gets left behind, we mean it. We'll be waiting for you at the end, whenever you get there ◡̈
Last stretch of running before the infamous....
THE HIGH FIVE TUNNEL
(optional but recommended)
This is one of the highlights for most of our runners! If this isn't your thing, just run along side it and join the end of the tunnel. There's nothing like the feeling of ending your run with a tunnel of cheers from over a hundred people. We keep it going strong until the last person comes through. It's so worth seeing the smiles on everyone's faces.
OUTRO + SOCIAL COOL DOWN
You're technically off the hook but we like to do a little outro of any upcoming events or notes about the afters hangout. If we did bag drop, they'll be brought back during the cool down. This is a great time to exchange IG handles with your new friends or invite the community to any upcoming beach hangs, hikes, spikeball tourneys, or find out who's going to the next ONE event and so on.
POST RUN HANG
(optional but recommended)
We are so lucky that roughly 50+ people join us after the run no matter where we go, no matter what the weather is. In the summer we love to have little beach hangs until its pitch black, sometimes we head to CRAFT or Beeryani nearby for some drinks and food! Totally optional but a great way to solidify any friendships you made at the run!
