Orange Runners Club was formed in 1978 and is the second oldest and one of the largest running clubs outside of the Sydney metropolitan area. The Club is affiliated with Athletics N.S.W.
The Club welcomes runners and walkers of all ages and abilities to the following weekly scheduled events:
All ages, all abilities. Together we achieve individual goals!

Sunday trail run (monthly) | 7:00am (6:50am briefing) | Various locations in and around Orange | Various (normally short and long course) |
Thank you for your interest in joining Orange Runners Club. To participate in the weekly (Wednesday and/or Sunday runs) you must be a paid member.
Orange Runners Club runs are electronically timed (except for the trail runs), using a state-of-the-art timing system. In order for your race times to be recorded you will need to purchase a timing chip ($15) which is attached to your ankle via a velcro strap. Your timing chip is your individual identifier. The timing chip is reusable and therefore is a “one off” purchase. If you lose your timing chip, you will be required to purchase a replacement timing chip.
When you become a member of Orange Runners Club you automatically become a member of Athletics NSW at the Community Membership level.
