Brewery run club that meets every Monday at 6 pm at Barn Owl Brewing on Lakeshore Road for a 30 to 40 minute run, jog or walk. It is free and open to all ages and abilities, with a waiver to sign first.
Fill out the online NMAM Run Club waiver before your first Monday; it asks for an emergency contact and for you to confirm you are 18 or older. Meet at Barn Owl Brewing on Lakeshore Road at 6 pm for a 30 to 40 minute run, jog or walk at any ability, then stay for a pint or dinner from Mystic Pizza if you like.
Running store club that holds a free weekly 5k on Wednesdays from rotating spots around Kelowna, plus long runs every Sunday, with group leaders at the front and sweepers at the back so every pace is welcome.

First visit
Every pace is welcome: group leaders run at the front and sweepers at the back so nobody gets left behind. Check the Play Run Club Strava club for each week's start spot and time, and sign the online Play Run Club waiver linked from the community page. If a group of 60+ feels intimidating, Play also runs beginner learn-to-run clinics (new dates to be announced).
All paces and identities are welcome. The group meets Thursdays at 6:30 pm at Rustic Reel Brewing Company for about 5 km of running, walking or jogging. Its Linktree is the readable place to check for changes.
Running club that hosts a Saturday morning long run from rotating meeting spots, Monday and Thursday morning runs from Mission Creek Regional Park, and a spring-to-fall Tuesday 6 pm track workout. Walkers are welcome.
When and where
Early Creekers run/walk (mid-May to mid-September)
Every Monday and Thursday at 8:00 AM, mid-May to mid-September
Paid membership: $25 early bird for 2027 (until Dec 1, 2026)
First visit
Visiting runners and walkers are welcome at the weekly runs. For the Saturday Goats' Run, check the club calendar or Strava for that week's meeting spot, pick a suggested route at your own pace and stay for coffee after. Creekers' runs are very non-competitive run/walks from Mission Creek Park, with coffee after at Bread Company. The paid membership covers weekly runs and the weekly route email.
This page lists 4 run clubs in Kelowna that meet on a repeating schedule. Each listing links to the group's own page for joining details.
Are Kelowna run clubs free to join?
Costs and joining rules vary. Check each group's own page for fees, registration and membership requirements before you go.
Do I need the Culdesac app to join Kelowna run clubs?
No. This page is free to browse and every group links out to wherever it already organises. The app matters once a group runs its own chat and calendar on Culdesac.
