The Loyal Order of the Royal City Runners

Ah, Guelph—land of picturesque rivers, overpriced farmers' markets, and an inexplicable number of runners. The Loyal Order of the Royal City Runners is where Guelph's joggers come together to do what they do best: pretend they're enjoying every grueling, sweaty kilometer. Founded as a nod to Guelph's moniker 'The Royal City', this group meets every weekend to infuse the trails with their boundless enthusiasm and thinly-veiled competitiveness. Between the fervent debates over the best running shoes and the inevitable humblebrags about personal bests, this group serves as a showcase of Guelph’s deep-rooted tradition of acting like running is some sort of leisure activity. Join us, won’t you? You may even learn to love running—or at least tolerate it better.
