🌚 Full Moon Fun
Join us under the glow of the full moon for a casual, untimed Howl at the Moon fun run on Sunday, February 1st at 5:00 p.m. ✨
Glow up your run 🌕 HOKA will be joining us with demos of their newly updated Gaviota 6.
We’ll have a suggested 5K route in the Shoppes at South Hills parking lot, but this run/walk is all about your pace and your distance. A full 5K will be about three laps, but feel free to run or walk one, two, three… or however many laps you’re feeling!
Space is limited, so don't wait to sign up, or you might miss out!
Come for the movement, stay for the moonlight, and make it as easy or adventurous as you’d like! 🏃♀️
🐺 Wolf Pack Vibes
Runners and walkers of all paces are welcome, including those curious about nighttime running.
Night gear is required to participate in the run or walk. That includes a light to help you see where you are going (head, waist, or wrist) and a flashing light to help drivers identify you as a runner/walker for safety. Ideally, this would be a light-up vest or Xinglet, but a small, inexpensive clip-on blinker attached to your clothing will also work. Headphones are strongly discouraged. We promise that you will have so much fun that you definitely won't need them!
All participants will receive some sweet SWAG (see below)!
We will send out a pre-event email on Thursday, 1/29, with pertinent details. Please register using a valid email address you check regularly; otherwise, you may miss this important communication.
Full Moon.. Fresh Kicks

HOKA is bringing demo pairs of the newly updated Gaviota 6 to try under the full moon.
If you're interested in trying out a pair for your run/walk, we encourage you to arrive by 4:30 p.m. to give yourself time to snag a pair.
Note that demo shoe sizes are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

A long-sleeved hoodie with a beautiful wolf pack design and cool glow-in-the-dark sleeve element—fit is true to size! Be sure to register by Sunday, 1/25, to snag your preferred shirt size.

A custom handmade finisher's medal, also glow-in-the-dark!
A delicious black & white cookie to enjoy after the run/walk!

The run is around the Shoppes at South Hills parking lot. We will review the suggested route before we start the run/walk. If you are looking for more information beyond that, this event may not be for you :-)
We will not have a waitlist for this event. There are only enough medals for open registration spots, and those who register but cannot attend will still get their goodies.
