How to Join

There is a two week trial period for CPDC, so feel free to come out to practice and see how you like it!

Practices are Monday-Friday at 4:10pm on the Cal Poly track around the 50m mark. Once the two week trial period is up, you will have to join the club if you wish to continue coming to practice!

If you decide to join…

  • go to Cal Poly Now

  • sign in using your Cal Poly login

  • click on organizations, scroll down until you find “Distance Club” and click on it

  • click the “Join” button

Next you will need to sign the participation agreement

Then you have to pay club dues

Club dues are $60 (this covers the whole year and includes social events, a club t-shirt, and personalized coaching from Coach Mando). After paying dues, you will be able to attend practices all year long and compete in races (optional) as a Cal Poly Distance Club athlete.

You can pay with either cash or check. Bring it to practice and give it to the CPDC treasurer. Please bring an envelope and remember to write your name on it!

Once you have done all of this, you will be able to join the Slack!

This is how you will find out about fun social events and stay connected with other CPDC members. Reach out to an officer, email us, or DM the instagram to be added.

If you have other questions, feel free to email us or DM the Cal Poly Distance Club Instagram (@calpolydc)
