The gO! Running Group is a Roseville based recreational running group that aims to provide group running opportunities for runners of all abilities. Although our focus is primarily on 5K to marathons, we have members who have completed triathlons (including Ironman events) and ultras. We train on both roads and trails. We currently meet three times per week - Sunday mornings and Tuesday/Thursday evenings.

Ten Commandments of the

gO! Fair Weather Runners Association



  1. Thou shall not run unless temperature is between 72-76 degrees.

  2. Thou shall only run when beginning and ending within ten yards of ice cream, pizza, or beer.

  3. Thou shall not run without sunglasses. If sunglasses are not appropriate, neither is running.

  4. Thou shall not get our car tires wet in order to get to a group run.

  5. Thou shall only run with a tailwind.

  6. Thou shall support other Fair Weather runners throughout the storm by always being available to chat on Facebook.

  7. Thou shall treat the Weatherman as their primary running coach. His words trump all.

  8. Thou shall treat all minor weather disturbances as potential weather disasters. Stay at home, board up windows, and be sure you have an operational generator available for your television.

  9. Thou shall never abuse their running shoes with exposure to dirt, water, extreme temp. (temp. below 70 degrees or above 80 degrees), or wind chaffing.

  10. Thou shall donate all winter running gear (gloves, hats, jackets, etc) to those in need. This will help with the guilt.
