About Runpacks.

Runpacks lists the running clubs of Cyprus with the days, times and meeting points they post, the group runs dated for the next seven days, and the race calendar. Each club and each race has a page of its own, and The Map puts them all on one terrain map.

It covers Nicosia, Limassol, Larnaca, Paphos, Ayia Napa and Paralimni, and the Troodos trails.

The directory is free to use, with no account, and free for clubs to be listed in. The Runpacks app, where you see who’s going and say you’re in with one tap, is in a closed beta for invited testers. The waitlist is open for each city.

Every Monday and Thursday we check each club’s public Instagram posts and bio for new runs and for changes to times or meeting points, and we add what organisers send us directly. A club page says “Confirmed” with the date of the latest post we checked its runs against. The same check feeds the weekly @runpacks index on Instagram.

Race details come from the organisers, the Deputy Ministry of Tourism’s running events flyer and the Running in Cyprus calendar. We print what was published and leave out what wasn’t, so a run without a posted start time shows none.

Clubs change times and meeting points, and sometimes we miss a post. If something on a page is wrong, email us or send a DM to @runpacks on Instagram and we fix it. Club logos are the club’s own Instagram picture, and we take one down when the club asks.

Send us the day, time and meeting point and the club goes on Monday’s index. Free, forever. A listed club also gets a link page at runpacks.app/<name> for its Instagram bio and a poster with a QR code, both from its club page. Race organisers can send a race the same way.

Couch to Club is our series on Cyprus run clubs in their own words, also out as a podcast. The races and the group runs come as calendar feeds too, for Google, Apple and Outlook.
