About This Club
Brooklyn Track Club is a competitive team based at McCarren Park Track in Williamsburg, running since 2016 and now over 700 members. It's built around structured speed work and a performance/ODP team, so it suits runners who already have some training background and want organized track sessions rather than a casual jog.
Highlights
- Track-focused speed workouts
- Performance/ODP team
- Large diverse community
- Bag check
- Strength training discounts
- Massage discounts
- Performance team benefits
Who It Suits
This suits intermediate to advanced runners who want structured speed training and don't mind paying for a membership. It's not the place for absolute beginners, casual walkers, or anyone looking for a no-pressure jog, and it's not set up for strollers or dogs.

What a Run With Them Is Like
Tuesday sessions are track workouts, think intervals like 1200m and 400m repeats, run at paces tied to half marathon or 5K effort with pace groups to sort people accordingly. Wednesday and Sunday bring road runs at varying distances. Terrain is track and road only, no trail.

Your First Run
Head to McCarren Park Track and check the club's website first since the schedule shifts seasonally, including the exact meeting time (Tuesday track sessions run early morning or evening, road runs are 8 or 9AM).
Get there early to sort out bag check before the group heads out. Bring gear suited to track and road work. This isn't a beginner-paced setup, so come with a sense of your current pace so you land in the right group.

Where this comes from: Club details come from each club’s own channels (their site, Meetup, Strava and social posts) and are checked by hand. Group runs move, so confirm the meeting spot on the club’s latest post before you head out. Last updated April 2026.
