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 runs and social events, as well as through the various volunteer opportunities that our club is committed to providing throughout the year.  If you’re not already a member, click here to join today!
