Dolly said it best: if you never get out there, you never win.

Fast pace, easy pace, walk breaks, comeback miles, first miles. It all counts. The win is getting out there and giving yourself a chance to see what happens.

Whatever your pace, we’re here for it.

Meet Jenna, the newest member of the KCRS crew! 👋

Originally from Evansville, Jenna graduated from UofL in 2023 and has been building her running story right here in Louisville. She ran her first half marathon at KDF in 2022 and trained for her first full marathon here in town, so she knows a thing or two about putting in the miles.

We’re excited to have another runner joining the team and helping our community find what they need for the miles ahead.

Next time you’re in the store, be sure to say hi and help us welcome Jenna to KCRS! 💙

Hot night, quick pivot, great crew.

Thanks to everyone who came out for Tuesday Track Night despite the heat and rolled with our last-minute move to the Norbourne loop because of a soccer game at Waggener.

We appreciate this crew showing up, adjusting, and getting the work in together week after week.

See you next Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. All paces and levels of experience welcome, always.

You never know what’s going to show up on the counter at KCRS.

Stop in and see what else you find while you’re here!

A lot of miles and a lot of medals this weekend. 🏅

We loved seeing the KCRS community out at the Louisville Pure Tap 5K, Blackacre Barnstormer, Unbridled Women race, and other finish lines near and far. From age group awards to trail miles and everything in between, you all gave us plenty to celebrate this Medal Monday.

Congrats to everyone who raced this weekend! 👏

Your Monday reminder: the miles are shaping more than your fitness.

Running asks you to show up, stay patient, keep going when it gets hard, and trust that small efforts add up. Those lessons don’t stay on the road or track. They follow you everywhere.
