nÓg Run Club
UPDATE: Due to COVID-19, the nOg Run Club is currently virtual. People are encouraged to run on their own, and post photos of themselves on the club's Facebook Page. Once we are allowed to have public gatherings again safely, we will.
Back in 2008, Dr. Elizabeth came up with the idea to start the nÓg Run Club, a social gathering for local runners. With the help of Fleet Feet Raleigh, it grew in popularity very quickly, and after a couple of years of operation, became a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. In 2019, over $100,000 was donated to local charities from contributions received at the club's weekly Monday night runs, as well as the proceeds from three major events: the St. Paddy's 4 Miler, World's Largest Flip Flop 1K Walk, and Oktoberfest 4 Miler. Since turning non-profit, the club has donated more than $800,000 to local charities!
The Run Club meets every Monday night at 6:15pm at the Raleigh Beer Garden. Some people run, some people walk, and some just come to socialize. After the run, you can stick around for trivia with Dr. Rick starting at 7:15pm, as well as a special $5 menu for nÓg Run Club patrons.
