Since the founding of the club in 1967, we have seen the Dallas Running Club grow from 20 members to over 4,300 members. We do not skimp when it comes to benefits for our members.  We offer free monthly club races with post-race food and chip timing, discounts on our three signature races, and discounts at local athletic retail stores. But the greatest benefit received by our members is meeting other people who share your passion and energy for running, walking or other exercise activities, which usually leads to life-long friendships.

• Eight Free-to-Members Club Races per year The free monthly club races fall on the first Saturday for the months of January, February, April, June, July, August, September, and October.  These races differ each month in distances, from a 5K, 4 miles, 10K or looping White Rock Lake for a total of 9.1 miles.

• Discounts on Three Signature DRC Races each year Discounts offered to our members on the three Signature races, which include Trinity River Levee Run in March, the White Rock n' Roll 5 miles and 10 miles in May, and the DRC Half Marathon in November.
