Our events and programs are open to all regardless of where you are from. Whether you are from Embrun, Limoges, Marionville, Casselman, SDG, City of Ottawa, or elsewhere, you are more that welcome to join.

In cases of extreme weather (i.e. thunder, lightning) we will take proper precautions to ensure no participant is endandered. Please use your discretion if you feel that the weather is unsafe for your child.

The Russell Run Club (RRC) is registered with Athletics Ontario (AO). Registration ensures Coaches and Affiliates have the necessary coaching requirements, training and police checks. It also provides incurance for the RRC. Every participant of any RRC program needs to be a member of AO for insurance purposes. The fees help cover admistration expenses of the Club.

Athletics Ontario membership is per calendar year. They do not pro-rate membership fees therefore we cannot.

Important information will be emailed to members of the Russell Run Club. We are looking at other options in the future for communication.
