Holton Scramblers

Running is a mental sport...and we are all insane!


Welcome!

Got to Run!

I don't run to be faster than the others...I run to be faster than myself.

There is nothing better than the wind in your hair, the sun on your back and good friends running beside you!

MISSION
:

The Scramblers Running Club is committed to the overall health and well-being of all who engage in physical activity. The club encourages running, walking, or any other form of physical activity, to benefit the physical and mental health of its members. We offer weekly get-togethers where runners or walkers can offer or receive motivation to or from others to continue in their pursuit of physical and mental fitness. We will sponsor several events throughout the year to achieve the same goal and to benefit worthwhile charities and organizations.

The Scramblers Running Club meets every Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. at the Holton LifeCare Fitness Center in Holton.  The Scramblers Coffee Run meets every Saturday at 8:00 a.m. at All Around Sweets across from the Post Office just off the Holton Square for a pre-breakfast run.


Courses include:

2-miles for walkers

2-3 miles for beginning runners

3-6 miles for advanced runners
