About Running in the USA

What We Are

Running in the USA is a directory of links to running and multisport races and clubs. We only show in our directory, what we can prove that we know. We prove what we know by providing links to the race or club information. We are not associated with the races in our directory. We will only include in our directory what we can find reasonable proof of online somewhere.
