Spring has some of the best weather for any of those 5ks, Warrior dashes or bicycle rides, not too hot, not too cold. Signing up for any of these events is a great goal to work towards! Once you sign up the idea you’ve committed to something motivates you to push hard to accomplish this goal.
Get an accountability partner to join you – that makes it even more fun! Talk it over with a RxD Coach to see what best fits your set of goals. Here are a few events happening around the city. Visit your local events calendar to see what’s going on near you.
Color Run – The color run is a vibrant event hosted in at least 100 cities around the country. Runners wear white and are doused in color every kilometer. Celebrate after the finish line at the ‘Finish Festival’ with live music and dancing.
Spartan Race – The Spartan Race has three obstacle options for those that want to push themselves. While they aren’t beginner-type courses, the 3-mile, 15-obstacle Spartan Sprint has a 99.9 completion rate and is considered the easiest option.
Zombie Run – This nighttime run includes options for all skill levels, including the Black Ops course that includes obstacles. The race is held at night while you run from volunteers dressed up as zombies. There are 28 cities hosting zombie runs including New York City on May 10.
