What is Trecho?

Trecho - a greek word found in scripture that means "moving forward with a purpose" - Heb. 12:1-2

Trecho's Purpose: To spread the gospel and grow community through walking, jogging, and running.

Social: Please like and follow Trecho on social media for updates on locations!

The cost is free!

This ministry is intended to build community for all paces, all faces, and all races. We want anyone and everyone; moms with strollers, seasoned adults, children, college students, or those needing to get active for some other goal or purpose to come and walk, jog, or run together. There is zero pressure to go a certain speed, the goal is a comfortable conversational pace. You pick your route and follow that, rather than picking a pace group. We all start together once the devotion is over, and it doesn't matter when you get done.


Plug In to the Trecho Ministry

We will have a large group run one Saturday each month either at FBCT by the front fountain, or somewhere around the community. Check our social media accounts for weekly run updates.
