We’ve been back walking and running as a club since 2018, and we’ve welcomed dozens of runners and walkers since then! See the FAQs below to ease your first visit with us. If you have other questions not mentioned here, please message us on Facebook or Instagram. We hope to see you soon!

What is Frontrunners Lexington?2025-02-07T01:35:35+00:00

Frontrunners Lexington is a welcoming LGBTQ+ walk/run group that promotes running, fitness, and community.

When do you meet?2025-02-07T01:36:41+00:00

We meet twice a week for group walks and runs. We list our current schedule and locations on our website homepage. We adjust times throughout the year as the seasons and sunlight change, and we update this page and our social media accordingly. Arrive a few minutes early, wear comfortable workout clothes, and join us for a fun time!

How fast do you run? How far?2025-02-07T01:37:21+00:00

We have members of all levels! Some of us run 6 minute miles, others take a more leisurely 20 minute mile. We start at the same location, but we go our own distance. On average, we go between 1 and 6 miles.

We pair new walkers and runners with folks with similar goals so they know where to go.

Just show up and we’ll help you be successful!
