Whether you’re a hardcore runner or you’re just getting started, there’s no easier way to find inspiration than by scrolling through Instagram. There are loads of underground run crews and organized groups that list runs, motivational quotes and showcase races. We picked through a few of our favorite running accounts — from individual elites to big-time track clubs to photographers — to help you find your mojo. There’s sure to be something in here that’ll get you out to the track or on the road. It’s basically like crowdsourcing your workout.

This race used to be a total secret — all 340 miles of it. Dubbed The Speed Project or TSP, there are no rules. Your team has to get from the Santa Monica Pier to Las Vegas on foot. The rest is up to you. The race takes place at the end of March, but follow along year-round for motivational images of runners pushing themselves to the absolute limit.

The winner of last year’s New York City Marathon (one of the best if we’re being honest), shares her journey with running. Get updates on her cookbook, what she’s eating, feel-good moments from past races and her role as a team member of the Bowerman Track Club (and Bowerman Babes).
