About Us

Mission Statement 

The Asheville Running Collective (ARC) is a USATF-certified, post-collegiate racing team comprised of competitive runners living in the mountains of Western North Carolina. In addition to helping its members achieve their individual running goals, the ARC is focused on competing for team championships in 12-man relays; cross country, trail, track, and road races; and, regional and national USATF events. By identifying competitive regional runners and providing them structure, benefits, and a positive team environment, the ARC hopes to grow the sport of competitive distance running in Western North Carolina and enhance the performances of its members.

Membership expansion

We’ve recently opened up our club to new members. Anyone can join, regardless of ability or experience. With increased membership, we will be in a better position to unite runners and racers in Western North Carolina behind our shared mission, pull in more leaders and volunteers for ARC-sponsored events, and have a broader reach in the community.
