Themed Fun Run

Pick a theme! Pick a season! Pick a location! Costume contest run through the cemetery at sunset? Ugly sweaters at the holidays? Red dress for Valentine’s Day? Be creative, pull together some swag and a party at the end, and turn exercise into a festive experience.

  • Cater to both the running community in your area, as well as more casual participants
