Student Activities

  • Join the UConn Graduate Running Club

     

    Hark and heed, runner! The UConn Graduate Running Club (GRC), the inaugural sporting group for UConn graduate students and postdocs, is recruiting! Anyone from a fledgling beginner to an expert speedster is welcome to come and run with us! No minimum pace, distance, or experience is required. Joggers and walkers are invited with equally vehement enthusiasm, and we have groups to accommodate both!

     

    If interested, please complete this form (UConn sign-in required) to be added to our mailing list and to receive an email with a link to our WhatsApp group chat! The club chat is our main channel for communication, announcements, and updates, but we also send out an email at the beginning of each week with information about that week's events and runs. The link to our WhatsApp group chat can be found there as well. Additionally, anyone can post club- or run-related messages in the chat to organize their own "unofficial" run or sporting activity. 

     

    For the summer 2026 season, we are meeting in front of the main entrance to the UConn Student Union (the side facing the Sherman Family Sports Complex, formerly the Field House) on Tuesdays and Wednesday at 6:00 PM. On Fridays at 5:00 PM, we are meeting in the lobby of the UConn Rec Center. We additionally run "unofficially" on Saturdays at 10:00 AM off-campus which changes location at each week.

     

    For more information or if you do not receive an email with a link to the WhatsApp chat within a day of submitting the form, please contact Alex at alexander.debrizzi@uconn.edu. You can also check us out on Strava at strava.com/clubs/uconn-grc.
