VOQ Racing , established in Apr '12, is a loosely structured group of athletes based in and around the Salem, OR area with a common goal of semi-elite racing. It is the natural evolution of the book, VOQ Training , and the lack of high level racing opportunities between Portland and Eugene. Our goal is to elevate the Salem running scene (across all ages) to a level comparable to its better known in-state neighbors by gathering, augmenting, and inspiring the local talent.

We have established performance guidelines but not strict standards. The emphasis is on competitive racing, either overall or age group. Group training is available but not required. No cost to participate.
Contact Dan Kaplan or hit us up on facebook for more info. We meet every Sunday at Bush Park (bottom of Derby Hill) for a long run at 11am, and smaller groups meet for Tue/Fri 11am/noon and 5pm Tue workouts (same place). Changes will be noted on the facebook page.
