SportChek Kanata Running
                  Club

About Us:

Our club was originally founded in 1994 as the Motionware Running Club by volunteers Jane Armstrong, Nancy Morrison, Dave Pedley and Joe DuVall.  In March 2008, after 25 years of business the Motionware Store closed its doors.  When we learned that our store was closing we began searching for a new home and SportChek Kanata welcomed us aboard.  And so, starting in April 2008 the SportChek Kanata Running Club was born.  In February 2010 the club opted to move locations again.  We are now running from the Sports4 in Kanata Centrum.  So we are now the Sports4 Kanata Running Club.

The club is volunteer run and entirely free.  Over the years the volunteer leaders have changed and now our location has changed, but the club spirit remains the same - encouraging and enthusiastic. 


Our weekly runs are guided by several Kanata residents who have many years experience in road running and multi-sport endurance events.  Runners of any ability are welcome, from beginners to competitive runners of various paces and distances.  The participants run with fellow runners of their own ability level. 

All runs start and finish at the Sports4 store. 

Aim:

  • To provide a supportive environment for runners to train and to assist participants, of any level, to enhance their running ability through improved training techniques and group workouts. 

Benefits:

  • A consistent program with knowledgeable people to guide you 
  • Regular, group oriented approach to training 
  • Supportive atmosphere 
  • Geared to male or female runners, regardless of fitness level, age or ability 
  • IT'S FREE!!!!
