Becoming a Teammate
At Hoboken Track Club, we are looking to grow our team with runners who exhibit an enthusiastic desire to be part of a team and unwavering positive attitude. It is important our teammates are consistent, dedicated runners with big goals, whatever that looks like on your personal running journey.
Step by Step Guide to Becoming a Teammate
Step 1: Join Our Community Runs
Join us every Thursday at 7pm at Black Bear Bar & Grill for an easy, 4-mile Community Pub Run. This easy run is followed by drink & app deals along with the perfect opportunity to meet other runners in the area!
We like interested members to have attended 3-5 of these runs before applying to HTC.
Step 2: Introduce Yourself
The HTC Community Pub Runs are a great way to meet current HTC members! We greatly value team camaraderie and cohesion and want to make sure each new member is a great fit for our team ethos. We love to run and would love to hear about your running journey, goals and why you would want to be a part of our team! Our Meet the Team page can help identify some great people to talk to at our Community Pub Runs.
