The Ventura Road Runners is a group of runners and walkers from the Tri Counties that enjoy distance running for both athletic competition and its health benefits.
The club's membership includes runners and walkers of all abilities, ranging from occasional joggers to competitive middle and long distance runners and walkers. Our members range in age from the middle teens to seniors in their 80's.
Included among our activities are regular weekend fun/training runs and walks and monthly trail runs. The club website keeps our members informed of upcoming races, training schedules, member discounts and other items of interest.
The Ventura Road Runners Club is incorporated as a non-profit educational and cultural community organization under the laws of the State of California.
The club is fortunate to have Eileen Cohen, as the running coach, and her husband Ed as the walking coach.
Eileen and Ed have been coaching marathoners for over ten years. During that time they have trained thousands of people to find their way to the finish line on race day. Eileen has been a marathoner and Boston qualifier for the past 14 years. In that time she has completed 30 marathons and trained thousands of people to find their way to the finish line on race day. Ed started doing marathons a year after Eileen. He has completed 24 marathons. Both of them have competed in three international races in Dublin, Ireland, Venice, Italy, and Athens, Greece.
We meet each Saturday at Buenaventura State Beach Park in Ventura. Runs and walks start at 7:30 a.m. Our runs are along the boardwalk to the bicycle path and on to the Rincon.
