Escape Belle Isle 5K

Since we’re experiencing some very warm days, it’s a good time to review hot weather running tips!

⏰ Timing : Consider running earlier or later than normal to avoid peak hours
💦 Hydrate : Carry water or electrolytes with you or plan your routes around water fountains
📈 Route : Plan a route that has a lot of shade to avoid direct sun
🧢 Gear : Wear breathable light colored clothing, consider a hat or sunglasses and don’t forget sunblock

It will take your body a while to acclimate to warmer temperatures so don’t be afraid to slow down, incorporate walk breaks or consider a shorter route.

Happy Monday runner friends! We hope you’re ready to tackle another week, make this one a great one 👍🏻

We want to take the time thank all of our fabulous volunteers. Our event proudly benefits Semper Fi & America’s Fund, and we wouldn’t be able to do that without our very generous volunteers who give their time before, during and after race day to make things happen. Thank you volunteers!

Virtual runners this one is for you! Your goodie bags are on their way and we can’t wait for you to get them. Make sure to tag us in your virtual runs so we can cheer you on & celebrate your accomplishment!

Congrats to all our virtual runners for taking on the Escape Belle Isle 5k all across the US!

New week, new goals! We want to know what goal are you chasing now?! Maybe you’re looking for a 5k PR or to run a new furthest distance, tell us about it in the comments!
