ShadowChase Running Club (SRC) is a nonprofit organization that promotes running, walking and fitness-related activities in the greater Modesto area. Members take great pride in giving back to our community, both financially and through volunteerism and community involvement. Two of our biggest expenditures benefiting the entire community has been the purchase of four water fountains in local parks, two along the Virginia Corridor and two in the East La Loma Park/Dry Creek area. Also, the installation of six exercise stations along the Virginia Corridor. Our Mission: The mission of The ShadowChase Running Club is to promote healthy lifestyles through running and running related activities in Modesto and surrounding communities. Our History: ShadowChase Running Club was started in 1978 around December. Some of the early founders are Lew Mahew, John Lucas, Randy Siefkin, Al Stoll, Frank Bushakra and Mike Miller. They met regularly at the Modesto Junior College Science Building. The name ShadowChase came from a group of guys who were running and saw their shadows in front of them, thus coming up with the name.
