Move with us in the morning from Lyon Street Cafè! Going down the cheer tunnel is optional, but friendly faces are guaranteed.

We start at 6 with info and intros. Then we go for a 1.5 mile group paced walk *or* a self-paced group run (current paces in the ~8-13 min mile range). When we’re all back we do announcements, chill, or do an extra 2 mile run.

Routes and more info in stories! Hope to see you in the morning!

(If you can’t make Tuesday morning or not sure if you’re ready to run with us yet, we have a social event this Thursday! Part of our After Dark series, this week’s Lyon Square Soirée is no movement required, just to enjoy the night, the river, and the people. Starts at 7.30pm, see separate post.)

Save the date: join us at Lyon Square for a relaxing social evening on Thursday the 17th.

Lyon Square has a great view of the river, seating, lighting—and is in an official social zone. Plus, Lyon Street runs into Lyon Square…get it?

Plus, it’s time for another Lyon Street After Dark, a non-movement focused social our runners, significant others, and the LSRC-curious to meet up and just chill. An opportune place and occasion for an early-autumn *soiree (noun, swä-ˈrā): a party or reception held in the evening*.

Bring a friend or date and drinks to share if you’d like and let’s chill by the river as the sun sets at Lyon Square (official sunset: 7:48pm). Thursday the 17th from 7:30.

Comment or DM with any questions. Hope to see you there!

Meet Heather, our guest co-captain this week!

In Heather's own words:

"Hi, I’m Heather! I started running when I was a sophomore in high school. I’ll never forget running my first timed mile and realizing that I had the potential to be a pretty decent runner if I put in the work.

After running XC and track in high school, I went on to run for Davenport in 2019. Unfortunately, I tore my hamstring my freshman year and that single handedly ended my collegiate running career.

I transferred to GVSU and pursued a degree in Athletic Training. After my injury, I took a long break from running and didn’t start up again until 2024 where I ran my fastest half marathon ever (1:34.57).

Fast forward to today, I recently moved back to Michigan to be closer to family and I was really missing the running community.

I joined LSRC in April 2026 on Instagram and haven’t missed a week since! This club has truly changed my life for the better. I’ve made so many friends and we do various activities outside of the weekly Tuesday runs. I can’t put into words how grateful I am for this family.

Some fun facts about me: I work in regulatory affairs for nutrition & dietary supplements. I have hiked to 14’ners (Mt. Evans & Mt. Bierdstat). I am originally from Colorado. I have two dogs and am an avid sourdough baker and snowboarder."

Thank you for being a friendly face in the LSRC community, show Heather some love in the comments!

Thank you for starting September with us the only way we know how: with an early morning run!

A big thank you to Heather, our guest co-captain this week, as well as Sammie C, Maia, and Madelyn, who all made sure that runners didn't get lost or led the walk!

Save the date for our After Dark event this month: Thursday, 9/17 (more details coming soon).

Have a great Tuesday and a great rest of the week!

Kick off September with us at Lyon Street Cafè! Meet us tomorrow at 6 am for intros (including a guest co-captain). We'll also share route and safety information, and then head out for a 3 mile run at your preferred pace (current range of paces is 8 - 12:30 min/mile) or a 1.5 mile group walk. Community announcements after and then coffee or an optional extra 2 mile run.

A note on parking: please don't park in the lot between LSC and Martha's so other customers can use that lot. There's plenty of street parking and a large lot around the corner (see our stories/highlights for details).

If you've been following us for a while but haven't run or walked with us yet, please consider this your invitation to join us. We'd love to meet you!

Check out our stories/highlights for more information, and DM us if you have any other questions. See you tomorrow!
