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.

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.


Connect with the Trecho Ministry

We meet every Tuesday @ FBC Trussville at 6pm. We will meet one Saturday each month rotating between either a local neighborhood, Maple Ave Coffee House, or at FBC Trussville. Please like and follow Trecho on social media for updates on locations!

Please note: We will be taking a break from our weekly runs during the months of November and December due to the time change as well as lower temperatures during the time that we normally meet. And to accommodate travel schedules throughout the busy holiday season!
