PITTSBURGH RUNNING TOURS

Pittsburgh Running Tours, established by Trista Yerks in 2013, is an active way to explore Pittsburgh for both locals and visitors alike. A self-proclaimed “Pittsburgher by choice”, Trista moved to Pittsburgh in 2012 from Minneapolis and immediately fell in love with the city. Wanting to find a way to share her passion for both running and Pittsburgh with others, she star

ted Pittsburgh Running Tours with one route – North Shore. Since then, Pittsburgh Running Tours has flourished and currently has 17 different routes, offered year-round any day of the week. Custom and private tours are available, as well as special tours offered in partnership with local breweries, yoga instructors, and other tour operators. OUR LOGO
When Trista asked her very talented sister-in- law, Minna Sponholz, to design the logo for Pittsburgh Running Tours, she asked her to include one of the Three Sisters Bridges. Minna designed a unique logo that incorporates not only the three bridges in that special Aztec Gold, but also Pittsburgh’s three rivers in blue. And the logo as a whole is a pair of shoelaces, since it is a running company after all.

"Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble."
- John Lewis
