WELCOME TO ASA!

We’re so glad you have shown an interest in Athletes Serving Athletes and our mission!

This page is for those who would like to become a Wingman with us, but don’t feel ready to take on running a 5K quite yet.  We have put together a bunch of resources for you below on how to start or supplement your running journey! We have lots of clubs, trails, and Facebook pages for you to check out and find what works best for you. Many of the trails listed are Beginner level, and there are many distances you can run to practice for 5K races as a Wingman!
