MCRRC is one of the largest, most active running clubs in the nation, and is recognized for sponsoring low-key but high-quality club races, training runs, special events, and other activities. It offers programs and opportunities for all types of runners, from newcomers to experienced ones. The MCRRC club motto is "A Place for Every Pace".

MCRRC members have access to the RRCA quarterly publication Footnotes. MCRRC members are encouraged to participate in the Maryland RRCA Grand Prix racing series. MCRRC has a sister club in Richmond (Upon Thames) in southwest London, the Ranelagh Harriers. MCRRC members traveling to Richmond have free access to training runs and any races that are free to Ranelagh members. MCRRC publishes the bimonthly magazine The Rundown.
