New Years Double

Two back-to-back days of a 5K, half marathon, and marathon in North Texas (an hour north of Dallas) on New Year's Eve and New Year’s Day. Do 1 day or both!
(210)

Finish certain combos of races each day and earn the special Challenge Plate to hang them from! Two days, you pick the combo of distances. A tech shirt for each day for all race distances, even the 5K. A finisher medal for each day for all race distances, even the 5K. You can run one day if you don't want to do both. But you'll miss out on the Challenge Plate that you get for doing two back-to-back days of races across the years! Your medals actually magnet into the plate!

New Years Double has a legacy of helping people in North Texas to end their year active and start their next year the same way. You don't HAVE to come for both days: many of our athletes come to walk or run one day too because sometimes your life doesn't make two days possible!

That New Years Double goal you set for yourself might be starting to feel a little more real.

Maybe you’re building toward your first race. Maybe you’re trying a new distance or thinking about racing on both December 31 and January 1. Whatever your goal looks like, you don’t have to have every training week figured out today.

Start with what you can do this week, and keep making room for the goal as you go.

What are you working toward at New Years Double? Registration is open at https://runsignup.com/Race/TX/Allen/NewYearsDouble

Kind of like eating a Reese's, there is no single “right” way to run New Years Double.

With two days and three distances each day, you can build a challenge that fits your experience, your schedule, and the goal you want to pursue.

Join us on December 31 and January 1 in Allen, Texas.

The days are shorter, the temps are dropping, and suddenly there is a school or work event almost every night of the week. This is definitely the time of year when it becomes almost too easy to put running on pause.

We've found that a year-end goal can really help you stay motivated. Choose a goal, and then that ordinary Tuesday run turns into part of a plan; something bigger you are working towards.

Come join us at New Years Double on December 31 and January 1 and give 2026 a nice finish line and 2027 a great start. Register at the link in bio.

There’s something special about ending one year and beginning another in motion 🏃‍♀️🏃🏾‍♀️🏃🏻

New Years Double gives you two days to celebrate how far you’ve come and take the next step toward wherever you want to go.

Choose a 5K, half marathon, or marathon. Race on New Year’s Eve, New Year’s Day, or both. Come for a personal milestone, a family tradition, or simply the fun of starting the year with people who get why running is a great way to celebrate.

What would you like your first finish of the new year to mean to you?

🌴 Meet this year's New Years Double finisher medals! 🌴

Who says winter has to be cold?

This year, we're celebrating the 15th Anniversary of NYD by bringing a little sunshine to the finish line with a tropical-inspired medal that celebrates what New Years Double is all about: starting the year with adventure, friends, and a whole lot of fun.

Whether you're running one race, both days, chasing a PR, or simply kicking off the new year on your own terms, you'll earn a medal that's ready for vacation.

Because the best way to start a new year is with an adventure.

Our gear isn’t built for one type of runner.
Because there isn’t just one.

11 sizes.
No labels.
No assumptions.

Just something that fits you, exactly as you are.
