Not open to join this week. Trail Roots group runs has the next date. The schedule below is what the organizer published, not a session you can walk into now.

Trail Roots says group runs are open from absolute beginner through ultra, and that you download the app to see the schedule and book runs. The same page says the schedule changes weekly and also prints a grid. Some places are named. Saturday and Sunday rotate, and the Wednesday evening trailhead is not named. Do not store any of those places as a fixed confirmed pin.

Printed grid, not confirmed for a given week: Tuesdays 5:30 a.m. at Epoch Coffee Farwest and 6:00 p.m. at Austin High/Barton Springs. Wednesdays 6:30 a.m. Trail Discovery at Barton Creek Greenbelt and 6:00 p.m. trail, evening trailhead not named. Thursdays 5:30 a.m. at Barton Springs. Saturdays 7:00 a.m. trail, rotating Greater Austin area. Sundays 7:00 a.m. road, rotating central Austin. Street addresses for Epoch Coffee Farwest and the exact Barton Springs pin are not on the group-runs page. There is no map pin.

Absolute beginners through ultra. Trail Discovery is geared toward beginners, about 3–4 miles. Run/walk is accepted. Sunday on the grid is a road run, not a trail run.

Membership required. Check the weekly schedule. Do not treat the printed grid as this week's pin. A newcomer cannot know this week's trailhead from the page alone. Regular group-run price on the group-runs page: No fee listed. RunSignup Trail Roots All Access is a different product at $114.00 for 1 month and $1,299.00 for 12 months and includes group membership plus race entry. Do not treat $114 as the confirmed basic group-only price.
