Each race comes with a free medal, an optional t-shirt purchase, and a limited-edition sticker available to the first to pick up kits. First up, the 18th […]
Searching for My Next KW Race!

Are you up for the challenge?
The Baden Races is coming up on May 13. It’s a great run on flat roads and trails but with a twist! Start with the 5km and decide whether or not you want to tack on an extra 2.5km on top of it 60 minutes later. Ouch! So since the race has a twist, so […]

Preparing for race day
Who remembers signing up for their first ever running race? It was January 2012 for me. My wife and I decided we wanted to start running again and figured signing up for a race would be a good way to keep us motivated (especially during the winter!). Fast forward a couple months and it was […]
