Lake Merritt Joggers & Striders (LMJS) is a volunteer-based, nonprofit running club. We foster:

• Camaraderie: We build opportunities for runners by providing education and increasing engagement.
  
• Community: We outreach to the community and build external partnerships to bring running to everyone.
  
• Collaboration: We collaborate with youth groups, schools, organizations, and local businesses to enrich the running community.
  
• Empowerment: We increase self-esteem and confidence through the healthy practice of running.

Towards these ends, we have given grants, in kind donations, offered timing support, collaborated on runs, and engaged in other partnerships with the greater Bay Area running community. We hope to continue these efforts and ask you fill out the form below with as much detail as possible so that we can collaborate and bolster the Bay Area running community.
