JERSEY CITY · RUNNING · COMMUNITY
Run together.
Build community.
A nonprofit running community bringing people together through training, racing, outreach and the simple joy of showing up for one another.
ABOUT THE SQUAD
More than miles.
Jersey City Squad exists to make community running more accessible — through physical activity, safety education, training, outreach and programs that reduce barriers to participation.
We are a New Jersey nonprofit and IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) public charity. We welcome people who want to run, race, volunteer, support teammates and strengthen the local running community.
RUN WITH US
Show up as you are.
Training, race support and community events are built around one idea: it should be easier to find people to run with.
