our story
The Omaha Running Club has more than 500 members and has supported the Omaha running and walking communities since the early 1970s. The roots of the club are in the Elmwood Park Track Club, The Omaha University Track Club and The Plains Track Club. These early groups of organized runners evolved in today’s Omaha Running Club.
