Equalizers Running Club

When my daughter expressed interest in joining a running club, I asked around and everyone said the same thing — «Equalizers.» A quick internet search shows the group as one of the top youth running groups in the country. This team is amazing and has turned her interest in running into a full-​blown passion. In 6 months her mile time has decreased more than a minute and she went from a recreational runner to qualifying for the Junior Olympics her first season. She is eager to go to every single practice. Coach Jerry is incredibly knowledgable and supportive. Practices are in Tustin, Irvine, Villa Park, Fountain Valley and Huntington Beach depending on the day and whether it’s track or cross-​country season so you should check with the coach about days/​locations before coming out. The kids practice during the week and there is usually an optional track meet or 5k most weekends. If you run local 5k’s, you’ve probably seen the kids in their green and blue jerseys getting to the finish line more quickly than most adults. If you have a kid who likes to run, there’s no better group for them to run with. Contact Coach Jerry at
