...to the official website of the University of Connecticut Running Club. The club was founded in 2005 by a group of students looking to organize a club to serve the interests of retired high school athletes and other runners in the University community. Today, the club's goal is to promote healthy lifestyles both at UCONN and also throughout the State of Connecticut. Thank you for visiting, and we hope to see you out running!"
RunUC Sweeps Fun Run
Once again, RunUC had an excellent showing at the annual UConn Club Sports Fun Run. We managed to take most of the top few places in the race. We were also proud to once again be a sponsor of this event, and even got our logo on the race t-shirt.
