💓👟💓This is a love poem for the Calgary Running Community💓👟💓

Running shoes are red,
Laces are blue,
The Calgary running community is sweet,
I love you.

In all seriousness I am not a poet crew but damn I LOVE THE CALGARY RUNNING COMMUNITY.

Honestly I don’t know where I would be if I didn’t have this supportive and vibrant community to lean on and grow within. And let me tell you that if you are thinking about joining in on all the fun but are feeling a little nervous just know that all of us have been in your shoes before and all it takes is to take that first step forward to just show up to hang out with 150+ of your newest friends right here in the yyc 😇. Before you know it you’ll be right in the action— moving, grooving and cheering on all those around you as we all 🪩✨get it get it✨🪩 for this 2025 sweaté season x all future ones ahead.

If you do not know where to start please do reach out to me directly and let’s get you in with the community. There is so much to choose from (s/o my first loves @yycruncrew x @eightyeightbrewco + @runcalgary + @crushcamp) and there is one hundred precent a place for you here.

Among other exciting goings on for this year we are going to be putting the party into the race for the @calgarymarathon 10K. If you’re looking for a group of people that will totally bring a vibe to your 10K run on race day (Saturday May 25) just 1) sign up for the 10 via the link in my bio and 2) send me a DM so we can get you into the race day group chat. All are welcome. Good damn vibes only.

See you soon crew—
