APPLICATION WAIVER

I know that running and volunteering to work in club races are potentially hazardous activities. I should not enter and run in club activities unless I am medically able and properly trained. I agree to abide by any decision of a race official relative to my ability to safely complete the run. I assume all risks associated with running and volunteering to work in club races including, but not limited to falls, contact with other participants, the effects of the weather, including high heat and/or humidity, the conditions of the traffic on the course, all such risks being known and appreciated by me. Having read this waiver and knowing these facts, and in consideration of your acceptance of my application for membership, I, for myself and anyone entitled to act on my behalf, waive and release the Road Runners Club of America, the Island Road Runners and all sponsors, their representatives and successors from all claims or liabilities of any kind arising out of my participation in these club activities even though that liability may arise out of negligence or carelessness on the part of the persons named in this waiver. I grant permission to use any photographs for any legitimate purpose.

Who we are:

The Island Road Runners was founded in 1981 and in 1995 became a member of the Road Runners Club of America (RRCA). The club provides support and encouragement to its runners and walkers, as well as promoting community fitness and awareness. We encourage runners and walkers of all abilities to join our group. You can find us on the web at:

Meeting Times

We meet every Saturday morning throughout the year at Grosse Ile Middle School at 8:30 am. There are several course options for running and/or walking and their lengths. All abilities are welcomed.

During the summer months, we designate one Saturday per month as “Tailgate Treats”. This includes breakfast following the run/walk at the Middle School parking lot.

On Mondays, April through October, our club also meets to run and walk at 5:30 pm at the Elizabeth Park Pavilion in Trenton. October through March we meet at the same time at the Riverview Public Library.

IRR Memorial Day Race

Each Memorial Day we organize and sponsor a 1-mile fun run/walk and 8k race at Grosse Ile High School. We are proud of this event and have been doing it for over 20 years.

Our Club is also the host club for the Zanglin Downriver Run, held in Trenton every June. Both races have consistently been voted a “Top 50 Road Race” by Michigan Runner magazine, and ranked highly in scenic course and best post-race party, respectively.
