Welcome to Cypress Running Club!
CRC has runners of all abilities from many neighborhoods around
Cypress/NW Houston, and regardless of your experience or fitness level,
we are confident you will find running buddies here!
We have many AWESOME things planned for the season!
HOW DO I GET STARTED?
Join the CRC Facebook Group so that you can connect with CRC and have access to all the events (running & social) that we have going on.
If you do not have Facebook, we strongly recommend you create a blank account just to keep in touch with our coaches OR see if a family member will join the group to give you visibility into our events. With 800+ members, this has been our most effective form of communication.
Click HERE to look at our training groups so you can find people at similar paces with similar goals. You will also find all of our target races and full training plans on our website. If you are still trying to figure out which training group you fit in, follow this chart:
I FOUND MY TRAINING GROUP, BUT WHEN DO WE MEET?
Most organized runs are on Saturday mornings with start times varying depending on mileage goal and the time of the season. On Facebook, check our events tab each week for your group’s weekly posting. Please note, while some groups may run informally during the months of May and June, the formal training plans don’t start until July so you may not see every group’s events until July. Stay tuned to FB and feel free to post out to the group to see if anyone else is running during this informal period.
For mid-week runs, simply post your goal, pace and ideal location and see if you can find buddies!
WHERE DO I GO?
Saturday morning runs will start & finish from the back parking lot of Sampson Elementary School (16002 Coles Crossing Drive, Cypress, TX 77429). Please drive slowly and watch for runners as you arrive/depart.
Here’s a map to help find out where your group will probably be!
The parking lot can fill up quickly, so remember there is parking at the lap pool across the street from Sampson and we can legally park along Coles Crossing Blvd. We encourage Coles Crossing residents to walk, bike, jog or carpool!
Please do NOT park in fire lanes or blocking the trash cans/recycling bins!
BEST WAYS TO STAY CONNECTED WITH CRC
- CypressRunningClub.com — Our website features lots of useful information, including detailed training plans, meeting times for runs, races we will target this season, a calendar of events, and more!
- Facebook — If you haven’t already done so, please join our Facebook group – that’s where a lot of chatter happens about all things running! Check the “Events” tab for information about runs, social events, and other club happenings. Note: due to the size of our FB group you will not receive invitations for every event and will need to check the events tab on a weekly basis.
HOW DO I GET MY CRC GOODIES?
Goodie bag pick up has not been scheduled yet but is tentatively set for sometime in August/September. We will send out a notification when an exact date is scheduled.
See you on the trails!
