"Running is so honest. The watch doesn't lie. The miles don't change. The distance is exactly the distance. There are no judges. There are no politics . . . Running gives you your childlike spirit back---you can still jump in puddles and run through the rain. You can go out to play." - Julie Isphording - U.S. Women's Olympic Marathon Team (1984)
The Middletown Athletic Club (MAC) was formed in 2002 by several local, long-time runners, to promote running as a social, recreational and competitive activity. In early 2008, MAC became an officially-recognized member of the Road Runners Clubs of America (RRCA).
MAC’s goals include promoting running as a family-oriented activity and to promote youth running. Whether you are new to running or a seasoned competitor, youth athlete or Master, run for health and fitness or train to race a marathon, MAC offers something for everyone.
MAC sponsors weekly club runs for runners of all paces and goals, as well as several running-related social events and races each year. The biggest, the Premier Physical Therapy Peach Festival 5k held in mid-August, draws 250+ runners each year and includes a kiddie 1k. Check our ‘events’ page for more details on MAC events.
As a not-for-profit organization, proceeds from MAC membership dues and sponsored events are used to award TWO $500 scholarships annually to area high school cross country runners. Also MAC is a great way to join your neighbors and enjoy the simple sport of running.
