Berkshire 32 Running Club

The Berkshire 32 Running Club invites runners, walkers, and hikers to explore the diverse landscapes of Berkshire County. With over six decades of experience fostering the local running community, we offer an enriching journey through the county's scenic towns and cities. Whether you're a seasoned athlete or just starting out, this club provides motivation and camaraderie as you set your sights on ambitious goals.
The heart of our initiative is the 100 Mile Challenge: walk or run a 5K in each of Berkshire’s 32 towns and two cities—Pittsfield and North Adams. This challenge not only encourages physical activity but also invites members to discover new places, connect with communities, and enjoy the camaraderie that comes from shared experiences.
Upon completion of all 100 miles, participants receive a commemorative mug, a $32 gift card to BRC, and bragging rights for being among the first to achieve this feat. The club also recognizes the first individual to complete every town's challenge with an additional $100 gift card from BRC.
To keep track of your progress, you can use apps like Strava or Garmin, take photos at each location as proof, and share them on social media using #berkshire32 and #berkshirerun. This not only documents your journey but also opens up opportunities for more prizes through our social media posts.
Membership in the club is $30, which includes a Berkshire 32 t-shirt and car magnet. Join us to experience the beauty of Berkshire County while connecting with like-minded individuals who share your passion for running and exploration.
Our goal is simple yet profound: to create an environment where every member feels supported as they challenge themselves physically and mentally, all while fostering a strong sense of community among runners in the Berkshires. Whether you're looking to improve your fitness or simply enjoy the outdoors with friends, the Berkshire 32 Running Club offers a unique blend of adventure and camaraderie that is sure to inspire.
