The purpose of our club is to encourage and support lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered individuals and their friends who are interested in running and walking activities. 

• We hold regular running/walking activities in and around the Inner Harbor of Baltimore; encourage members to participate in a racing/walking circuit; publish this Web site and monthly e-newsletters; and host other special events, meetings and socials.

• The Baltimore FrontRunners/Walkers is affiliated with the International Frontrunners.  We have regular contact with members of the DC Frontrunners and the Pittsburgh Frontrunners.  We also participate in shared activities with other local running clubs.

Annual membership dues are $20.  Fees are used to pay for international affiliation, insurance, local Gay Pride Festival participation, annual meeting and other club activities, including publication of newsletters, hosting Web site, advertising, publicity and other activities.
