Club member Mike Lesshafft enjoys a run on one of many scenic courses the Bluegrass has to offer central Kentucky runners.
BLUEgrass Runners is a non-profit organization based in Lexington, KY, devoted to promoting fitness, fellowship, and fun for runners of all ages and abilities. Our members range from milers to marathoners; walkers to sprinters; teenagers to veterans.
You can connect with other runners and walkers through our weekly club run and social events. This website is also home to a wealth of information on running and fitness, and starting this fall, we’re launching a new online forum just for BGR members to discuss topics such as scheduling group runs and track workouts, training ideas, and race travel plans.
