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.

Roseville's Premier Running Event!!

Hey Folks,
I need to rally the troops!! Although our numbers are WAY up for the race itself, we have had slow sales for our pre-race booster night. I know it is just more money you would have to spend, but I really want to encourage you to attend. The evening will be a great time as we have some GREAT raffle items plus the opportunity to hear Tim Twietmeyer talk is VERY cool. The gO! Runners are the perfect audience for such a legendary Sac-Area runner! Also, please pass on the event info to anyone who you think might be interested!
Sorry for the shameless plug, but we are trying to make the Miner's Ravine event the best in Roseville, and raise significant money for Autism!
Thanks
