RNK Running Club Connecting the World Through Running in Rinku Town
RNK Running Club emerged in August 2024 from Rinku Town, Osaka, the bustling gateway to Kansai International Airport where locals, visitors, and newcomers constantly intersect. Founder Shoma Miyamura envisioned a space inspired by Western run club culture but rooted in Osaka's unique energy. The crew has grown to around 25 runners from all walks of life, united by a simple philosophy: progress comes from consistency, not perfection. Every Tuesday evening at 18:45 and Saturday morning at 7:00, they gather at Rinku Ice Park for easy-paced, medium-distance runs open to everyone. Language and culture dissolve with every stride as locals, expats, and travelers connect through movement, growing together one step at a time.
