Resolution Run 2016

Walk it.
Run it.
Skip it.
Hula hoop it.

Whatever floats your boat, let’s getting moving on January 1 to set the tone for a year of healthy living.

For some added motivation, we’ve got the official Resolution Run! This isn’t a hit your personal best kind of run, it’s a way to start entering winter maintenance mode and not winter hibernation!

VIRTUAL RUN 5K
January 1st, 2016

RACE INFO
This is one of my favorite things every year! I started it as part of the Holiday Challenge in 2010 and then began doing it in person for a few years in Miami along with the virtual portion. I’ve always loved the race bibs where you can proudly display your resolution, while kicking things off in a healthy way, but this year we are stepping it up a bit with training plans, shirts and prizes!

What is it: A Virtual Run is a race that can be ran at any location. You have a flexible time frame in which to finish your race. Awards are given not to the fastest runner, but to runners for a variety of things (like cheering on others, posting your photo on social media, generally being awesome and just participating)!

How does it work: After you register, you’ll receive a confirmation email with your training plan (give it up to 24 hours) and your race shirt will be going out mid-December (late registrations may not receive shirts prior to race day).

Training Plan: Your 5 week plan is focused on starting the maintenance process and will give you a great foundation for going in to 2016 stronger, healthier and with one of my favorite things…a habit!!

The Shirt: The shirt for the Resolution Run 2016 is a long sleeve unisex shirt because hey we rarely get those from a race! I tried my darndest to find a great dry fit shirt, but the price then went up beyond what I thought was reasonable.

Who can participate? Everyone, that’s the beauty of it! You can encourage friends to join you or you can go solo without a worry about pace, porta potties or early start times. International runners will be sent a follow up email with shipping costs for the shirt.

Report Results: You’ll receive an email on January 1 with details on how to submit your race photos and results! You have until January 5th to report and then winners will be selected for prizes.
