Your first visit
Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.
First step: Go to the meeting spot for one weekly run, such as Monday at 7 pm at the center of Rittenhouse Square. You can email contact@queerrun.net with questions before you go..
You can just show up.
What to expect
Runs are free and go on year round except in severe weather. Each run is 3 or 4 miles at your own pace, with a stop halfway for stretching and conversation. Runners are not compared with one another, and the group puts care for each other first.
