The story began in October 2016 when a fellow Chandigarhian Gagandeep took to running daily to stay fit and fine. With its continuity, the Weekend Runners came into existence. There are approximately 20-30 active participants as part of their weekly runs, where special events have an attendance of at least 40-50 running enthusiasts.
Running Events by the Weekend Runners
A specific spot is chosen every Wednesday and Sunday at 5:30 AM from where the participants can actively participate in a 5KM, 10KM, or 21KM run as per their choice. Moreover, members are expected to share their daily workout updates on an official WhatsApp group to retain their membership, which is free of cost.

Next time, while you search for running clubs near me and find any of these in the list, joining those groups would be a great idea- just a suggestion. Our hectic schedule doesn’t allow us to meet our health goals, and we tend to focus on our work only. It affects physical and mental health. But we have to maintain our body fitness and stay happy. Therefore, give yourself the time on weekends if not on weekdays by participating in various marathons and running events.
