About the Twin City Track Club

The Twin City Track Club (TCTC) is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting running and fitness in the Winston-Salem, North Carolina area since 1977. We are North Carolina's oldest running club and one of the largest clubs in the Southeast. Our members are a cross-section of the community, representing runners and walkers of all abilities. We have group activities to promote the social aspects of running, and bring in nationally known speakers to educate and inspire, and we assist other organizations with their organized running events. We are a proud member of the Road Runners Club of America (RRCA) and United States Track and Field (USATF).

TCTC Mission and Vision Statements

Concurrent with its 30th anniversary, Twin City Track Club adopted new mission and vision statements to guide planning and activities over the coming years and decades. We are proud of our 30 year history and the contributions we have made to running in the Winston-Salem area. Our hope is to continue our heritage of positive impact in our community through our activities, events, and services. The following statements were approved by the TCTC Board on August 20, 2017.

Mission: To inspire and support all runners in our community

Vision: We aspire to build a healthy and socially connected community through running events, activities, support and information

We look forward to engaging all TCTC members to embrace and demonstrate our commitment to these aims.

Egg Beater Fun Run & Breakfast on April 8

TCTC is teaming up with the new Fleet Feet store in Clemmons for this Easter Egg inspired breakfast run.  Join us the day before Easter at 8:00am for a different kind of fun run!  We will start at Fleet Feet Clemmons and will head out on a 3 mile route.  But this isn't just any 3 mile fun run! Along the course will be challenges to push you to your egg-beating limits...and you cannot continue along the route until you complete the challenge.  Also along the course will be eggs to gather as you go- and certain eggs will be valid for door prizes!

When you return to the store, Twin City Track Club will be there preparing a delicious breakfast!
