Run With US

 

Ready to become a Miler?  Here's how. 

 

There are lots of ways to get involved with our organization! 

​

• Volunteer Orientation: We train runners to run with adoptable dogs from our partner shelter locations. Check the Facebook Events Calendar for more information about when the next Volunteer Orientation is at your preferred shelter location! All runners who want to go through Volunteer orientation must FIRST go on a Shelter Group Run from the shelter they want to run from, bu fear not! Most shelter group runs are followed by an orientation. 
  
         NEXT ORIENTATION DATES:
         We do not currently have any group orientations scheduled due to social distancing guidelines. 
         Please email us at info@themonstermilers.org to get on a list, or discuss individual training options.
       

 

• Shelter Group Runs: These are runs from our partner shelters. We will bring an adoptable running buddy out for an all-paces-friendly 3 mile run. To go through Volunteer Orientation, runners must first complete a Shelter Group Run. Shelter Group Runs are open to anyone and everyone who wants to meet an adoptable dog and go for a run with us. Not sure if you're ready (or have the time) to volunteer solo? No worries! Not all of our supporters are "volunteers."  At Shelter Group Runs you can meet some dog-loving runners and an adoptable dog without the pressure of volunteering by yourself. (And if you like the experience, you can then decide to go through Volunteer Orientation at a later date, or stick around for an orientation immediately following.) Check the Events Calendar for upcoming runs. 

 

• Fun Runs: Check the Events Calendar for Fun Runs or other social gatherings. We hold monthly Fun Runs at our supporting businesses like Philadelphia Runner and Good Dog Bar. Everyone is invited to these runs! We will sometimes bring an adoptable dog, and sometimes we just go for a run with a pack of awesome humans. Come on out and get social!
