Bronx Burners RC
Bronx Burners was co-founded in 2023 by Shaquille Roberts and Rob Dalto and has become something much larger than a running club: a nonprofit that has raised $260K and awarded $100K in scholarships to Bronx youth, with an NFL PLAY 60 partnership and mentorship programs that have sent kids to college. Free Wednesday night runs at Macombs Dam Park (7pm, Joseph Yancey Track) bring out ages 4 to 60+, with Roberts describing the scene as grandmas racing alongside first-time runners. The community investment is the point — running is the vehicle. Featured by ABC7 and NY1 as one of the Bronx's most impactful organizations.
Bronx Femme Run
Bronx Femme Run meets the first Friday of every month at 6:30pm at Joseph Yancey Track with a clear purpose: make women visible as runners in the Bronx. Founded in 2019 by Amy Ortiz and Michelle Nguyen, the club offers three options every run — 2.5-mile walk, 3.2-mile run-walk, 3.5-mile run — so no one gets left behind. The founders describe it as 'running in the hoods, in all the crevices of the Bronx,' creating real representation in neighborhoods where women running in public is still a statement. Free, first Friday every month.

BX Endurance Runners
BX Endurance Runners is a long-distance training club rooted in the South Bronx, meeting every Sunday at 8am at Joyce Kilmer Park on 161st Street near the Grand Concourse. The culture is explicitly ego-free, designed to bridge the gap between walking and long-distance running for anyone 18 and up, regardless of pace or experience. The club organizes its own annual race event called 'The Race' featuring a half marathon and 5K, and competes in the NYRR Bronx 10 Mile alongside other Bronx crews, giving members real race goals to train toward. After 10 years in the borough, it functions as a cornerstone of Bronx running infrastructure rather than a scene or social club.

Theory 9 Run Club
Community-first nonprofit run club embedded within Theory 9 Inc., a Bronx-based youth and community development organization. The run/walk/bike club is one program among many (basketball, food distribution, STEM, arts) rather than a standalone running crew. Mission-driven, wellness-oriented, and deeply rooted in the Kingsbridge/Kingsbridge Heights neighborhood. Grassroots and civic in tone, not trendy or social-media-driven. Registration via Google Form; schedule details shared post-signup. Tagline: 'Step into community and wellness where every mile brings us closer together.'
TriLatino Triathlon Club
Founded in 2009, TriLatino's mission is to increase Latino participation in triathlon and endurance sports while promoting healthy lifestyles. Bronx-based with training locations across Manhattan. Off All paces welcome.
Van Cortlandt Track Club (VCTC)
VCTC is one of the oldest running clubs in New York City, founded in 1977 and rooted in the Bronx's Van Cortlandt Park — arguably the most historically significant cross country course in America, which hosted the 1968 and 1969 NCAA XC Championships and the likes of Steve Prefontaine. The club runs on a traditional, structured model: Tuesday speed workouts, Thursday tempos, Saturday group long runs that self-sort by pace, and a Monday fun run from spring through fall — with post-run breakfast and socializing baked into the culture. About 300 members span recreational walkers to sub-40 10K runners, and the club explicitly keeps pace groups loose so beginners and competitive runners share the same trails. It is a paid, NYRR points-eligible club with a genuine Bronx identity — not a Manhattan social run masquerading as a running club.
