Frequently Asked Questions

Q. How do I join the Squannacook River Runners (SqRR)?

A. Complete an application form and mail it or submit it online.  The membership coordinator will respond with a welcome message and instructions on how to pay your membership dues and join the club’s email distribution list.

Q. What does it cost to join SqRR?

A: There’s a nominal annual membership fee of $10/individual or $25/family (three or more). An invoice for dues will be sent after we receive your membership application. For current members, dues invoices are mailed in January.

Among other things, your membership dues go to subsidizing race entry fees for all club members who participate in the Mill Cities Relay or Lake Winnipesaukee Relay races.

Q. I’m not a fast runner, should I still join?  

A. ABSOLUTELY!  SqRR is for runners of all speeds, ability, and experience.  It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been running, how far you can run or how quickly. Guaranteed, there’s a member of the club you can keep up with or can keep up with you. (Well, maybe not if you’re running faster than 5:30s.)

Q. What benefits do I get from joining SqRR?

A. We can’t make you better looking or smarter, but we might make you a little thinner, faster, or give you the stamina and support to run a race – whether it’s your first 5K or a marathon. Join us for a Sunday or Wednesday training run (no membership required) and give us a try.

Like we said earlier, you’ll get a free entry into at least two races a year. In addition, SqRR receives five non-qualified entries to the Boston Marathon. These are distributed to interested members who are active participants in club activities.

Lastly, you get to meet great new people at weekly training runs, races and monthly social events who share your interest and love for running.
