The Excelsior Running Club has members around the Bay Area and beyond. We have male and female runners of all ages and ability levels. It’s a good mix of competition, camaraderie and fun.

We are part of the USATF PA Division (Pacific Association of USA Track & Field) which covers northern California and Nevada. We compete in road (1 mile to marathon), cross country (3-6 mile trail races in the fall), and ultras (50k to 100 mile and duration races). We have women’s and men’s teams in open and masters divisions.


Note that members run many races outside the PA and hence there is a wealth of knowledge about local, national, and even international races. In addition, we do several meet up training runs in various bay area locations, some hiking/climbing, orienteering, and other adventures. Our main workout group in SF usually trains on Wednesday at Kezar at 6:00pm meeting on the upper loop (main press box). We also meet up for weekend long runs – check out our Strava group for future run meetups!
