A new weekly all-paces run or walk starting at the local People's Food Co-op is beginning this week! Runners and walkers will all start at 5:30 pm for a 20 minute run or walk going down to the waterfront, through the Riverside International Friendship Gardens, and out towards the Willow Trail at your own pace before turning around (at 20 minutes) and heading back to the Co-op to all end together ~6:10p.

Every 1st and 3rd Sunday of the month in September, October, and November, the Co-op Café transforms into a tabletop paradise from 2:00–8:00pm. Dave will bring a massive library of board games, so whether you’re a seasoned gamer or just curious, there’s something for everyone.

Join Rochester Running Club’s Off Season Striders for a community run starting right here at People's Food Co-op! This informal, all-levels running group meets year-round on weekends, and now they’ll be starting from PFC every third Sunday of the month.

As a bonus, all participants will receive a coupon for a free coffee with the purchase of a pastry from our café after the run. It’s the perfect way to warm up, refuel, and connect with fellow runners.
