How to start a run club (that people actually show up to)

Starting a run club is less about running and more about showing up, consistently, in a way people can rely on. Pick one day, one time, one meeting point, and never move it. Predictability is what turns a one-off into a habit.

Keep the first few weeks tiny. Five people who come every week beats fifty who come once. Post the plan somewhere everyone can see it, take a photo, and share who showed up, recognition is what brings people back.

Once you have a rhythm, the admin becomes the bottleneck: chasing RSVPs, remembering who is coming, collecting the odd payment. That is exactly what Access handles, so you can just show up and run.
