Group Runs
Looking for a running club near you that welcomes all runners, no matter your pace? Badass Lady Gang has been organizing weekly group runs in six cities across the US and Canada since 2019, and we’re here to make sure that whether you're a 9-minute miler or a 29-minute miler, you're never left behind.
Our group runs are designed to help women connect, get active, and have fun—no matter how fast you go. From speed play sessions to relaxed jogs, you’ll experience the thrill of running with a supportive gang that’s always in your corner. Whether you walk, jog, or sprint, you’ll always be within earshot of the group, ensuring no one ever feels alone.
We pride ourselves on building inclusive, welcoming spaces where community is at the heart of everything we do. These aren’t just runs—they’re a chance to meet new friends and share a few laughs. At Badass Lady Gang, we believe that every runner—no matter your experience—deserves to be part of a strong, supportive community. Our group runs make that happen, every week, in cities across North America. Ready to lace up and join us?

By women, for women.
By women, for women.
Train with us
There’s nothing we love more than watching our athletes chase down their goals. Regardless of what that goal is: If you want to like yoga, run a marathon, become a runner, or feel stronger and more energetic, we’re here to guide you, help you, and support you every step of the way.
We’ve designed our plans, practices, and experiences with the everyday runner in mind because too many running plans and programs were created by professional or elite athletes who don’t know what it feels like to be terrible at running. We get struggle runners. We get women who are spread too thin and won’t be able to do their training perfectly.
We believe in focusing just as much attention on your mental game as we do your physical one. We believe in finding fun on every run because if you’re not enjoying the process, WHAT’S THE POINT? We believe in helping our athletes build connections within our community and providing them with education and resources so that they can ditch diet culture, develop self-efficacy, and feel good about the choices they’re making in every aspect of their lives.
Stop running and training alone, stop overtraining, and train like the badass you are.

Testimonials
“Before finding the badass lady gang, running was lonely and challenging. Now running is still a challenge but I feel empowered to take on that challenge. I feel incredibly supported and inspired by the women in the group with me. When I'm unsure or nervous there are so many tools within this team. There is the social group on Mighty Network, coaching calls, and guided runs which are my personal favorite tool! I am so happy I found this group!”

Meet coach Kelly
Kelly Roberts, head running coach, and creator of the Badass Lady Gang is the Self Proclaimed Former President of the ‘I F*cking Hate Running Club’. Before her BALG days, Kelly's fitness routine consisted mainly of forced gym sessions fueled by a desire to shrink her body. However, it wasn't until she entered post-college life, armed with a theatre degree, student loans, and an uncertain future that she discovered the transformative power of running.
Kelly's running philosophy measures success by the confidence gained, not pounds lost.
Kelly is an RRCA-certified running coach and has completed Dr. Stacy Sims' 'Women Are Not Small Men' certification course, enhancing her ability to better serve female athletes. Kelly has coached thousands of women, from struggle runners to those striving for Boston Marathon qualifying times. Her achievements include gracing the cover of Women's Running Magazine, over a decade of sponsorships and partnerships with brands like Nike, Adidas, Oiselle, and Under Armour (to name a few), and founding the Sports Bra Squad, a global movement empowering body image through sport.
