We currently have three different flavors of regularly scheduled group runs from Seven Hills Running Shop.
Every Wednesday night you can run the Discovery Park trails with the stalwart Team7Hills crew. We run rain or shine all year round. This is our flagship run and often incorporates shoe demos where you can swap out your trainers to test out new models of running shoes on the trails. Check out our events calendar to see which brands are showcasing their latest shoes and when!
Seattle Green Lake Runners join us every first Sunday of the month for their social trail run around Discovery Park.
Bring your Pride to Seven Hills Running Shop and celebrate diversity on trails every first Monday of month – Out Trails takes over and leads a group of LGBTQ+ / BIPOC and ally trail runners/hikers on a Discovery Park trail frolic!
Wednesday Night Group Run with Team7Hills
Wednesdays at 6:30pm – meet at Seven Hills Running Shop!!
Our Wednesday night group run from Seven Hills usually runs the short distance up the road from the shop to Discovery Park. We generally enjoy an hour long run on the trails. There’s no set route for this group run and we tend to try to keep it fresh and run a different route every week.
Trail shoes recommended | Bring a head light when days are short (Remember – it gets darker quicker under tree cover!)
Speed warning: we do cover 6-8 miles in roughly 50-70 minutes. While we try to keep the group together as best we can, sometimes that doesn’t happen. It’s best if you know the park: be prepared to find your way back to the shop if you’re separated from the group. (You can view and download a Discovery Park Map from Friends of Discovery Park)
First Sunday with Green Lake Running Group
First Sunday of the month at 10am – meet at Seven Hills Running Shop!!
Join the Seattle Green Lake Running Group for a 3 to 5 mile fun run through Discovery Park! Blessed with forest, meadows, coastal bluffs, beaches, and spectacular views of Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains, Discovery Park is a great destination for a trail run.
This group run starts at Seven Hills Running Shop. All trails are marked with clear signs. The paths are smooth and the hills are moderate. Dogs are welcome!

Sunday Trail Run is a TWICE monthly series. The Seattle Green Lake Runners alternate runs between home (Discovery Park / Seven Hills) and away (scenic places like Cougar, St Edward, Rattlesnake, and Alpine Lakes).
First Monday with Out Trails
First Monday of the month at 5:30pm – meet at Seven Hills Running Shop!!
On the first Monday of every month join our queer running friends, Out Trails, for a NO DROP trail run around Discovery Park. The group usually aims to run four to six miles from Seven Hills Running Shop.
Out Trails is a community of LGBTQ+ / BIPOC and ally trail runners/hikers, celebrating & promoting diversity out on trails.
Discovery Park
Seven Hills Running Shop is ideally located close to Discovery Park, Seattle’s largest city park. We are quite spoiled to have many miles of woodland and waterfront trails on our doorstep. With few exceptions, all group runs from Seven Hills Running Shop head into Discovery Park to enjoy the many trails and its 600 acres of natural beauty. | On dry days you can get away with wearing road running shoes, but… this is Seattle, so trail shoes are recommended!
