About This Club
Every Person Run Club is a free, twice-weekly social run club based in Washington DC's Navy Yard neighborhood. It is built around the idea that pace does not determine whether you belong - walkers are explicitly welcome alongside runners of any experience level.
Highlights
- 5K training program
- Race training programs
- Community events
Who It Suits
This club genuinely suits beginners, walkers, and anyone who has been nervous that a group run means getting dropped - the pace-inclusive setup is the whole point, not an afterthought. If you are chasing a specific time goal or want a structured workout with pace groups, they do not advertise that kind of program, though they do offer race training for those building toward an event.

What a Run With Them Is Like
Wednesday evenings are a 3-mile easy-paced run starting at 6:30 PM from Tap99 at 1250 Half Street SE, with food and drinks at Tap99 afterward.
Sunday mornings cover a typical 5 miles, with start times that shift by season - 8:30 AM in winter and spring, 8:00 AM in summer, and 7:00 AM during fall marathon training, so check before you show up. When race training is on the schedule, distances stretch beyond those baselines. All of it is on urban streets.

Your First Run
Head to Tap99 at 1250 Half Street SE in Navy Yard - that is the regular home base for both weekday and weekend runs, though on the first Wednesday of each month the group meets at lululemon on F Street NW instead, so double-check the date.
There is no membership, no sign-up form, and no fee - you just show up. The Wednesday run is described as easy-paced and the club's stated focus is on running together rather than hitting a specific time, which means showing up slower than you think everyone else is does not make you a problem.

Common Questions About Every Person Run Club
Is it really free? Do I have to sign up or pay anything?
It is free and there is no membership required. You do not need to register in advance - just show up at Tap99 on a Wednesday or Sunday.
What time does the Sunday run start?
It depends on the time of year. The Sunday start is 8:30 AM in winter and spring, 8:00 AM in summer, and 7:00 AM during fall marathon training season. Check their channels before your first Sunday so you have the right time.
Can I walk the whole thing, or take walk breaks?
Yes - walkers are explicitly welcome, not just tolerated. The club describes itself as pace-inclusive, so walk breaks are not an issue.
Do Wednesday runs always leave from Tap99?
Most Wednesdays, yes - the meet-up is at Tap99, 1250 Half Street SE. The exception is the first Wednesday of each month, when the group meets at lululemon on F Street NW instead.
I want to run a 5K eventually - can this club help with that?
They do offer a 5K training program alongside other race training programs, so there is a structured path if you want one beyond the regular weekly runs.
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 July 2026.
