Galloway NYC Running Club
Join New York City’s premier Run-Walk-Run group and train for your next race with proven Jeff Galloway methods.
Train Together, Achieve Together
Whether you’re lacing up for the first time or you’ve logged hundreds of miles, our local training groups give you the support and structure to reach your goals. Runners around the world use the Galloway Run Walk Run method to build fitness, prevent injury, and actually enjoy the process.
Here’s the thing about training with a group: it works. Jeff Galloway’s program has a 98% success rate for those who stick with it. When you train as a team, you share the tough days, celebrate the wins, and keep each other motivated when it matters most. You’ll give support and get it right back. And along the way, you’ll likely make friendships that last well beyond race day.
What You’ll Get From Your Group
Our main goal? Getting you to the finish line injury-free and feeling strong.
- A group gets you out the door on those mornings when your bed feels way too comfortable
- Supporting others is just as rewarding as getting support yourself
- Your group keeps you from doing too much or too little, which is key to staying healthy
- The miles fly by when you’re running with others and sharing stories
- You’ll be part of a laid-back but focused community working toward the same mission

About Karen Casko
I accidentally 9+1ed my way into the 2014 NYC Marathon (I had no ulterior motives when I signed up for the volunteer shift – I swear!). When I realized I’d have the opportunity to participate, it seemed like too highly coveted of an opportunity to to let pass. I’d heard so much about how you only need to train to 20 miles for a marathon, that the last 10K are mental. That sounded believable to me, but I knew I wanted (and would need!) mental training as well. I planned to train solo, assuming I wouldn’t find a group that was a good fit for me, but then found Galloway NYC and thought huh, other people – that sounds like way more fun (and WAY more likely to get done). My one and only goal that year was to finish upright and happy – check! I became a pace group leader the next year, joined the leadership team a couple years later, and eventually inherited the reins. Some years I run a marathon, some years I don’t, but I always love being around people who are taking on the challenge (or just thinking about it), especially first timers.
