NEXT week is BIG with TWO weekday runs!

Global Running Day (GRD) is this coming Wednesday and we will be celebrating TWICE!

Wed, June 3rd: We will move our weekly Wed run to Sports Basement and join many other clubs who will be meeting there. Look for our table there!

Check in on the 3rd floor of Sports Basement time between 5-5:30. The first 300 people to arrive will get a 2XU LBM shirt from the ! Announcements start at 5:45 and the group will move outside at 6:15 pm. We will be running a 5K together.

After the run, come back to the third floor sports basement for some post run refreshments (beverages and bites!).

Again- will NOT be at the Crab Pot Wednesday, June 3rd!

Thurs, June 4th: We will join another event at Fleet Feet. Look for our tent.

There will be run clubs, shoe demos from multiple brands, demos from chiro and wellness centers, and some free treats after the run as well as numerous raffle prizes. Fleet Feet will also have discounts on everything in store!

Runners can show up between 5:30-6pm. The run will start at 6:30 and will be their typical 3-mile route through Heartwell Park and back.

The event will conclude around 7:30-8pm. We hope to see everyone there!
