Now's the time to up your game and join one of the largest and oldest running clubs in New York City. It doesn’t matter if you are a beginner, a seasoned runner, looking to race, looking to socialize, or looking for some motivation. All are welcome. By becoming a member, you get free and reduced member rates for a wide range of group runs, special events, training programs, and more!

The New York Flyers was founded in 1989 by Tim Kennedy and Jonathan Buck. Their goal was to establish a running club open to individuals of all athletic abilities and experience levels. The Club started with 7 charter members.
In 1991 the Club's objectives were expanded to embrace multi-sport activities as well, such as duathlons and triathlons. Membership has grown consistently, with over 600 runners, biathletes and triathletes.
