RUNNING CLUBS SPAIN

We’re an international run club based in Barcelona. Every Tuesday we have a social run of around 5 kilometers, at various paces. That way, everyone is welcome!

Every month we also have an event, which varies from beach days to shoe tests. For more information on joining our social runs or monthly events, you can follow us on Instagram @ordinaryrunclub

Social Run Club Valencia meets twice a week, Wednesdays at 19:00 and Sundays at 18:00. The club is built around the international student community, so most people speak English and newcomers fit in fast. Runs are easy paced, social and perfect for anyone who wants to stay active while meeting people in the city. You only need to lace up and show up.

The group is run by Erasmus students but it welcomes anyone, whether you live in Valencia long term or are just passing through. They share updates and meeting points through WhatsApp, and sessions stay free and open. If you want a low pressure run club where the focus is community first, this is one of the best options in Valencia.

TRC The Run Club has grown into one of Madrid’s most active hubs for runners. What sets them apart is the range of training they offer. They run beginner courses for people starting from zero, intermediate groups for improving 10K pace and advanced programs for half marathon or marathon prep. On top of that, they include strength work, cross training, technique sessions and small group mobility classes.

The club is open seven days a week and you can train at any of their five locations without extra fees. The community is social, supportive and easy to join, whether you are aiming for your first race or building toward bigger goals. They also run seasonal initiation courses, full training plans for the major races in Spain and a Hybrid center in Aravaca for a more complete approach to fitness. If you want a place where you can run, progress and meet people without overthinking it, TRC is one of the strongest options in the city. There is always a session to join and always someone to train with.

Mad Runners meets in El Retiro on Tuesdays and Thursdays, with long runs on Saturdays in Casa de Campo. Sessions are designed for every level, from beginners to runners chasing personal bests. Groups are split by experience so everyone trains at a pace that feels right. Tuesdays focus on intervals, Thursdays mix running technique with a social run and a dedicated beginners group and Saturdays are all about easy long distance in nature.

They adjust their schedule during the summer months to avoid the heat, and communicate changes in advance so everyone knows when to show up. The vibe is friendly, simple and very community focused. If you want a group in Madrid where you can improve without pressure and meet people who enjoy running, this is a great place to start.

RCB meets every Monday evening at Sea You Barcelona and holds Saturday morning runs around the city. The community is young, social and focused on enjoying the process rather than chasing strict training targets. Their sessions mix easy paced group runs with upbeat music and a strong social atmosphere, which makes it welcoming for new runners and fun for people who want something different from the typical club routine.

They host open events, themed runs and community meet ups, all centered on staying active and connecting with people. If you want a group in Barcelona that blends fitness with music and a feel good vibe, RCB is one of the most unique options in the city.
