East Bay Front Runners

East Bay Front Runners & Walkers is a LGBTQ+ group. We follow our exercise with brunch at one of several great local restaurants.

East Bay Front Runners is a group of lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, transgenders and friends who get together to run and walk in scenic locations on the east side of San Francisco Bay every Saturday morning at 9:00. Runners generally complete 3-7 miles and walkers complete 2-4 miles. While the Saturday morning run/walk is our club’s staple, we also enjoy pot lucks, movie nights, museum tours, ballg

ames, wine tastings, and occasional weekend getaways. We welcome people of all athletic abilities, from casual walker to competitive runner, and everyone in between. We take pride in being friendly and inviting, and we encourage you to come out and see for yourself. Our running and walking events are non-competitive, self-paced, range from three to seven miles, and last 45 minutes to one hour. All paths and trails are easily accessible to runners and walkers alike. COVID Information

East Bay Front Runners & Walkers Saturday morning run/walks are open to all members, guests and newcomers. Please sign this to participate (https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/DYC2M8K). NOTE: If you have already signed the waiver, you do not need to do so again.
