Our 2026 bash did not disappoint! We celebrated running and all the things we love about it with a Bull City Run Club soirΓ©e of epic proportions last night!

Our most robust thanks to the best vendor supporters who made it such a fun and memorable evening.

HOKA treated us to demo shoes, post-run treats from Locopops, and bespoke running-centric poems by The Poetry Fox! πŸ¦πŸ“πŸ¦Š

Bull City Physical Therapy answered all our physical therapy questions and advised us on fixing all our running aches and niggles.

The Animal Protection Society of Durham brought adorable adoptable pups, Donkey and Owen, and lots of ideas and resources for getting involved with their animal-rescuing efforts. 🐢

The world's greatest, most fun running community brought all the vibes, joy, and good times that make running something we celebrate every day! πŸŽ‰πŸ«Ά
