32 Runs Every Thursday in LA

32 weekly runs from 32 clubs ·

Thursday is the second-biggest night on the LA run club calendar, heavy on social crews that turn the run into the start of the weekend.

Plenty of Thursday groups pair the run with a brewery, cafe or taco stop afterwards. Marathon-training clubs also use Thursdays for their midweek longer effort.
