No stress, no expectations, just miles that feel good and a finish that feels even better. Run it your way, enjoy every step, and fuel your finish with good energy and great company. Let’s make this run unforgettable. 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️✨ Forget the massive, impersonal race-day crowds. We keep things small, personal, and local, so every run feels less like a number and more like a memory. Whether it's a 5K, 10K, half-marathon, or virtual run, you'll get the warmth of a hometown event. Overview: Spots sell out FAST! We close each wave the moment it fills. Once a wave sells out, you can grab the virtual run option or join the waitlist. This is a smaller, private group run with a capped field per wave so it never feels crowded and you're never just a bib number.

Timing: Optional! Track your own time via Strava, RunKeeper, Nike Run, or similar, then submit it through our easy online form to get posted. Or just ask a coordinator to help time you.
