Twin Cities Running Club

A club for beginners and experienced runners alike

About TCRC

David Coyne founded TCRC in 2003. As Coach for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) Team and Training organization, he saw a need for a running club that supported members of all abilities. Since the beginning, Dave grew the club, coordinated all runs, provided coaching, and managed the details of the club's business and records. And most importantly, he drove the culture of the club to keep it fun and inclusive. Running Times captured the character of TCRC and the vision Dave had when he founded the club. Here are Dave's reflections on TCRC's culture.

Since his untimely death in 2024, TCRC has been lead by a collection of member volunteers who serve on TCRC's Board of Directors and several committees. We are determined to maintain this culture.

Twin Cities Running Club, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation with EIN 90-0114300 registered in Minnesota. Its operation is governed by its bylaws and Ch. 317A MN Statutes
