About This Club

This is a weekly Wednesday night run out of Resident Culture Brewing in Plaza Midwood, Charlotte. It's free, no membership needed, and it runs rain or shine every week, so it suits people who want a dependable evening run plus a beer afterward rather than a training program.

Highlights

  • Brewery-hosted
  • Rain or shine
  • Bring a friend policy
  • Free to join
  • Post-run beer specials
  • Reflective gear encouraged

Who It Suits

This suits beginners and social runners who want a consistent Wednesday night run with a beer and some mingling built in, and neighborhood explorers who like seeing Plaza Midwood on foot. It's not built for trail runners since it's all road, and it's not a walk-run setup, so if you need walk breaks or you're looking for a competitive, race-paced group, this isn't that.

What a Run With Them Is Like

You've got a choice of a 3 or 5 mile route through the neighborhood streets around Plaza Midwood, all road terrain, no trails. Runs start at 6:30pm, and since it happens rain or shine year-round, reflective gear and lights are worth bringing since you'll be out as it gets dark. It's billed as beginner-friendly, but this isn't a walk-run group, so come ready to run the distance you pick.

Your First Run

Head to Resident Culture Brewing at 2101 Central Ave in Plaza Midwood and try to arrive a little early, since that's when routes get sorted out for the night. There's a bring-a-friend policy, so showing up solo or with someone is both fine, nobody's going to treat you as an outsider for walking in without a group.

It's beginner-friendly and there's no sign-up or fee, so the only real prep is picking the 3 or 5 mile route and bringing lights or reflective gear since it's an evening run. Afterward everyone heads back into the taproom for the $4 Neighborhood Tap special, so that's your natural landing spot even if you don't know a soul yet.
