Faster Bastards started as a name on a Ragnar relay bib and became Baltimore's biggest free running group. Founded in 2012, the crew has been pounding the city's streets with a singular mission: get faster or die. Built on gritty determination and relentless improvement, Faster Bastards welcomes runners of all levels into a tight-knit community that doesn't just talk about speed, it demands it. Their philosophy attracts a tribe united by the same drive. Two signature runs anchor the weekly rhythm: the Saturday Classic at Canton Waterfront Park and Wednesday to the MAX at Druid Hill Park's William Wallace Statue. What began as a relay team name evolved into a movement that defines Baltimore running culture.
