Who are the Mt. Pleasant Road Runners?
We are a committed and all inclusive group that offers accountability and support to all runners of all levels. We exist to provide support to all people who are attempting to start running for the first time, training for a new distance or have been running for 40 years! We are a fun gang to live life with and looking forward to building community together as we make a positive impact in Central Michigan one stride at a time.
In 2013, Josh and Elizabeth Berghuis had a dream to start a running club after many long training months by themselves. They decided it was time to begin organizing group runs where people could come and train together. As two years passed things became more structured and many relationships began to evolve. In 2015, Josh and Elizabeth decided it was time to name their group and an amazing group started taking shape with the help of Runners Performance of Mt. Pleasant where they were both employed. The joined together with Ray and Katt First and began planning for the future of what their club would look like in the Mt. Pleasant community.

The Mt. Pleasant Road Runners all started with a dream of encouraging all kinds of people to come together and pursue their goals and dreams together. We saw a need for a group of people to be a starting point for those desiring a healthier life. We strive to meet you where you are at no matter if you have been running for a few days, a few years or have never laced up before we will encourage you every step of the way. We now have a consistent core group of people who run together and who are committed to the vision and the growth of our community. We encourage you to join us and see what the Mt. Pleasant Road Runners can offer whether you need a training partner or a friend we can be there.
