The Twin City Track Club (TCTC) is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting running and fitness in the Winston-Salem, North Carolina area since 1977. We are North Carolina's oldest running club and one of the largest clubs in the Southeast. Our members are a cross-section of the community, representing runners and walkers of all abilities. We have group activities to promote the social aspects of running, and bring in nationally known speakers to educate and inspire, and we assist other organizations with their organized running events. We are a proud member of the Road Runners Club of America (RRCA) and United States Track and Field (USATF).
Concurrent with its 30th anniversary, Twin City Track Club adopted new mission and vision statements to guide planning and activities over the coming years and decades. We are proud of our 30 year history and the contributions we have made to running in the Winston-Salem area. Our hope is to continue our heritage of positive impact in our community through our activities, events, and services. The following statements were approved by the TCTC Board on August 20, 2017.
Mission: To inspire and support all runners in our community
Vision: We aspire to build a healthy and socially connected community through running events, activities, support and information
We look forward to engaging all TCTC members to embrace and demonstrate our commitment to these aims.
Come join us for the 30K (18.6 miles), 7 mile, or 5K (3.1 miles) run on the beautiful, mostly shaded, wooded trail surrounding Salem Lake. Enjoy a well-organized event that is a great tune up for any fall marathons. The course has been listed as one of America's best running trails and part of the proceeds benefit the Salem Lake Trail System.
Please plan to race or volunteer.
In the two-day running extravaganza that is the Anchorage Run Fest (fundraiser for our fellow RRCA club the Anchorage Running Club), a long-time member of the Twin City Track Club quietly crossed a finish line that completed a longtime goal: Garry Russ completed his 50th marathon in his 50th state.
To be clear, he’s completed more than 100 marathons and ultramarathons since he began this quest in 2006. But now he’s run a marathon in every state in our nation.
TCTC Club Members get an automatic discount for several upcoming races including the Moonlight Madness race on September 22.
TCTC will have a tent in the exhibit area of Moonlight Madness. Stop by and see us!
Come out and join fellow TCTC club members for a destination half marathon and 5K. We have created a Twin City Track Club team for the Greenville Half Marathon and 5K…also known as the Swamp Rabbit Race and “the fastest half marathon in the south”! The Race will be in the fun city of Greenville SC on Saturday February 24, 2024.

It was a journey two years in the making. We announced in 2020 that we would no longer publish the Flyer in printed form. And throughout 2021, the amazing Robert Hill has lent his design skills to making a PDF version that we shared via email. We proudly launched the new online version at the beginning of 2022.
