Isn’t it great to be a runner? Even though it’s hard sometimes and we all struggle once in awhile, running gives us so much. Global Running Day, which takes place on the first Wednesday in June (that’s June 6 this year) celebrates the wonderful running community and encourages runners to come together in celebration of this great sport, and in the process inspire others to give running a try.
How Will You Celebrate Global Running Day?
This year Wendy and I are taking our show on the road!
We’ll be celebrating Global Running Day with a group fun run Wednesday evening in Busse Woods. If you’re local, you’re welcome to join us. We’ll have goodies from the RocknRoll Race Series, I’ll be raffling off socks from Balega, and more.
No worries if you can’t join us in person. RocknRoll still has something special you won’t wanna miss:
For 24 hours only, from Midnight (12:00am) until 11:59pm on Wednesday, June 6, RocknRoll will be rolling back their prices to the lowest of the year! Read all about it HERE.
Have you run a RocknRoll race? What race do you have your eye on?
Lisa @ Mile by Mile says
Hope you guys have fun! I’ll need to check out those races. Maybe a discount will be the push I need to actually sign up for something!
Laurie says
Wish I was local. Joining you guys for a run sounds like fun. The location even sounds great. Is is a trail run? I will be running on Global Running Day, but probably running solo (sigh!)
Mary BEth Jackson says
I will take a raffle ticket! Have fun!
Wendy says
Should be interesting…. I’ll text you later.
Judy @ Chocolaterunsjudy says
I’ll probably be celebrating with a swim, LOL!
Enjoy your run. I’m sure it’ll be fun. 🙂
Kimberly Hatting says
I’m working on rallying some locals for a run on Wednesday. I’ll be doing my #5at5, but am willing to head back out later for a second adventure to celebrate the day.
Deborah @ Confessions of mother runner says

Wish I could join you ladies! Sounds like you have a fun event planned.
Lesley says
Sounds like fun. I remember RnR did those discounts last year, and I’d already signed up for Vegas. If I was doing an RnR, I’d sign up, but after contemplating Denver, I chose a much smaller race, closer to home.
Janelle @ Run With No Regrets says
Aw, I wish I could run with you ladies..that is definitely on my bucket list! I’m on the fence about signing up for a Rock ‘n Roll race, it’s weird that I haven’t run one all year after doing so many last year! I’ll have to see what the opportunities are tomorrow…:)
Katrina Pilkington says
I hope I can get up tomorrow before it’s scorching hot here!
Laura says
That’s so fun that you can hang out! I met an athlete I coach this morning and joined her for the planned track workout. I haven’t run with someone else in weeks so it was really fun to have company.
Wendy Hammond says
I have not done an RnR event, but they do look fun!
