For 12 years, the largest community of runners in the capital of Romania – Runners of Bucharest – meets weekly for group trainings and running events in the largest park in Bucharest.
Runners of Bucharest – the local Nike Running Club operator – is more than just a running group: it’s a running community for Nike fans. They map out running routes, coach members before, during and after workouts and provide health and fitness advice to help members develop, compete and recover on rest days.
Membership is free, all you have to do is be willing, like to exercise and be willing to make a healthy running routine.
The anniversary event took place on a terrace in the park where the Nike Running Club holds its weekly training sessions, and participants were challenged to run a pre-defined route without a watch or tracking and estimate as close as possible the time they would complete the race. Of the more than 80 NRC members present, 7 of them had the most correct guesses and were awarded by Nike with products and equipment for future training.
It was a morning full of excitement, competitiveness and good cheer – the community proving once again that the slogan JUST DO IT is as representative as it gets.
