The pricing for this run ranged from $30-$55 depending on your registration date with an option to add a timing… Continue reading Aloha, beaches!

It was also… Continue reading The Color Run (All-Star 5k)

This time was a little different, I completed the 10k (my… Continue reading ACT Today! for Military Families 5k/10k

Costumes were encouraged and… Continue reading The Super (Hero) Run
