MORE ABOUT US
Previously known as Bellingham Fit and BBay LifeTrek, Bellingham Bay Running Collective's LifeTrek began as a training program for the Bellingham Bay Marathon events. It has evolved into a socially connected accountability-based group focused on living a healthy lifestyle through running and walking together.
Bellingham Bay Running Collective is actively expanding from this core program to offer more fitness and training opportunities to Whatcom County residents.
