RACES ARE JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG

Our events bring us closer to the people and organizations that can help us get to the places where the sport and the social needs of our community meet. The goal of Second Capital Running is to bring positive change for our hometown, both in the running community and the community at large.

 

VINELAND YOUTH RUNNING CLUB

Formed in the Spring of 2021, Vineland Youth RC is a running club for kids 14 & under where they learn the fundamentals of recreational running by learning to LOVE the sport first and then build upon the skills they develop in the Spring and Fall seasons. Affordable outlets for regular physical and social activity are on a steady decline in America, and we hope to fill that void for youth in Vineland.

 

COMMUNITY MOVEMENT HUBS

In the same year that Second Capital Running was founded, we began working on a project to design and map out pedestrian friendly “urban walking paths” in Center City Vineland. A partnership with Main Street Vineland helped finally bring this project to life in the Fall of 2021. The “Walk The Ave” initiative is the first of many more projects to come that are meant to encourage recreational movement in our communities. Collaborative partnerships and funding will drive future projects like Walk The Ave and we are looking for people and organizations that can help us make this happen.
