Crafting Tangible Moments that Inspire Lasting Memories

We create running, cycling, and multi-sport events that bring people together and encourage them to lead healthy lifestyles and elevate their personal fitness goals. There is a growing community of people that prioritize their well-being and support each other along the way. These are our people.
EVENT DATES HAVE CHANGED!

Due to the impacts of Hurricane Helene, we have changed the dates of two events. The TreeTops Trail Race has been moved to November 16th. The Black Bear Half Marathon & 8K presented by Hunter Subaru has been moved to November 10th.

If you previously registered for either of these events, you will receive an email with additional information. If you have not registered and are available on the new dates, we would love for you to join us!

So many people have reached out and asked how they can help us in the wake of Hurricane Helene. The best way to support our team at this time is to register for an upcoming race or consider purchasing a gift card. If you are already registered for an event, please consider inviting a friend to participate with you!

We want to encourage people to reach towards their own magnificent movement potential each day.
