EnglishWhat Regular Group Runs and Interval Workouts Does Gulfwinds Offer?
Updated
Gulfwinds (GWTC) currently lists two recurring interval sessions: Tuesday morning intervals at the Holy Comforter Episcopal School track, and Tuesday evening intervals at the Skate Park/Rattler Snake area. The morning session starts at 6:30 a.m. and, effective September 1, 2026, moved to the Holy Comforter track at 2001 Fleischmann Road. The evening session continues at the Skate Park/Rattler Snake location. Beyond these two entries, the site's news feed and race calendar do not spell out a full weekly group-run schedule, so treat the intervals as the confirmed recurring workouts and check the calendar for everything else.
The two recurring interval workouts
| Workout | Day and time | Location | Status noted on site |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tuesday morning intervals | Tuesdays, 6:30 a.m. | Holy Comforter Episcopal School track, 2001 Fleischmann Road | Location changed effective September 1, 2026; start time unchanged |
| Tuesday evening intervals | Tuesdays (evening) | Skate Park/Rattler Snake area | Continues at this location |
The morning change is the detail most likely to trip up regulars: if you were used to meeting somewhere else on Tuesday mornings, the track at Holy Comforter is now the meeting point, and the 6:30 a.m. start has not moved.
What the site does and does not tell you
The news item announcing the morning intervals confirms the day, start time, and address, but it does not list:
- A pace range or whether the group splits into ability-based packs
- Whether the workout is free or requires club membership
- A named contact or sign-up step
- A rain or heat cancellation policy
The evening entry is even thinner — it names the location but not a start time. If any of those details matter to your decision, they are the questions to ask before showing up.
How to confirm before you go
- Open the GWTC race calendar and news feed on gulfwinds.org and look for the most recent interval post, since the morning session's location changed as of September 1, 2026.
- Check the date on the post you are reading — an older interval announcement may still show the previous morning location.
- If the evening start time is not stated, plan to arrive early at the Skate Park/Rattler Snake area and look for the group, or ask through the club's contact channels first.
Expected result: you arrive at the correct track or park at the correct time rather than at a superseded location.
Who these workouts suit
The Tuesday sessions fit runners who want a fixed weekly speed or interval slot and prefer training alongside others rather than alone. The morning track session suits anyone who can be at Holy Comforter by 6:30 a.m.; the evening session suits those who cannot make a pre-work start. Because the site does not publish pace groups, runners should assume they may need to self-select an effort level within the session.
Where the rest of the club activity lives
GWTC describes itself as Tallahassee's running organization and puts on road and trail races, with upcoming events including the Salute to Steve Prefontaine 5K & 1 Mile (September 26, 2026), Pine Run at Tall Timbers 20K (October 10, 2026), the Tallahassee Turkey Trot (November 26, 2026), and the Tallahassee Marathon/Half/Relay (February 7, 2027). The club also runs a volunteer podcast, "We Run This Town," and holds a Summer Town Hall — the most recent noted for 7/25/26 at Momo's in Market Square, 3:30–5:30 p.m., with the club providing a first drink and free pizza. These are the places where schedule changes and new group activities tend to be announced, so they are worth watching if the two Tuesday intervals are not enough.
