JJ and Tyler work their run buns at RRKC Speed and Strength
Last one runners! Our last speed session is this Tuesday night, October 4th. What's in store? A few loops of hilly challenge and, of course, the band work you love so much. Know your 5K race pace and bring your own water/sport drink. Meet at the base of our hill at 5:30 p.m. Note the time change. We are at the mercy of an earlier sunset. RSVP required: info@roadrunnerskc.com.
"The secret to change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new." - Socrates. I wonder if Socrates knew how hard it is to make changes on a website?
We are focusing positive energy into some exciting changes for RRKC. We will have new offerings that will keep us running together all year for less those wanting specialization will have a menu of options. Stay tuned! Of course the website will look a little different to accommodate these changes. In the meantime, if you can't find what you are looking for on the website, e-mail us at info@roadrunnerskc.com. We are happy to help.

To bridge the gap between local businesses and the KC running community we are hosting a run this Saturday, October 1st to support the Brookside Farmer's Market. Bring some cash and support local farmers after the run with a few yummy and healthy purchases!
We are meeting at the tennis courts in Brookside in the little green space/park just N of the tennis courts at 63rd and Brookside Blvd. Parking is available just East of the courts. Start time is 6:30 a.m. and end time is 9:30 a.m. We will be set up for 14 miles. This run is open to the entire community for FREE! Feel free to invite friends and co-workers. RSVP to info@roadrunnerskc.com with your planned distance.
We are getting close! Can you feel the excitement of your races coming up? We've got two more speed sessions this fall, two more chances to make a difference in that finish time. Meet at Leawood Park shelter just South of the pool for some speed play this Tuesday at 6:00 p.m. You need to know your 5K and 10K race pace. Bring your stopwatch, phone with timer or Garmin - you must have it or the workout will be a bust. Water fountain will be available. RSVP to info@roadrunnerskc.com.
