Social Hour Run Club Bringing Orange County Together One Mile at a Time
Social Hour Run Club was born in October 2016 when Donovan launched a simple idea in Cerritos, California: running is better when you do it together. Nearly a decade later, that belief guides everything the crew does. With around 250 runners of all paces and backgrounds gathering week after week across Orange County, Social Hour Run Club has become known for its warm vibe and inclusive ethos. The captains know your name, nobody gets left behind on the route, and the social element is never an afterthought. Three signature runs define the week: Tuesday track workouts at Cypress College, Wednesday evenings gathering at Nillys Burger Shop, and Saturday long runs launching from Bakers and Baristas. Each session carries its own energy, united by a shared belief that the connections made along the way matter as much as the miles.
