Playmakers Elite

TRAIN HARD. SUPPORT LOCAL

Since 2006, mid-Michigan’s Playmakers Elite has been recruiting post-collegiate runners to train and compete together. It is our mission to support local dedicated athletes as they work toward their elite racing goals.

We are a USATF-certified group competing at local races, team championships, the Boston Marathon, and the Olympic Trials.

Are you an avid runner in the Lansing area? Come train with us!
