Whether you’re finding a new place to run in your own backyard or want an excuse to see the rest of the US, there are plenty of run adventures for you to enjoy.
To date, we have found 18 states with running adventures, running camps, and running retreats organized by run tour companies. Each year, new ones are announced so be sure to let us know if your favorite isn’t on the list.
Of course, an organized run adventure is far from the only way to enjoy a state. With hundreds of run groups and marathons to choose from, thousands of local trails, and millions of runners, the US is just waiting for you to discover it.
Still, we love these curated adventures as a way to get to know a place deeply, connect with fellow runners, and take a moment away from our busy lives.
