We celebrated the end of our marathon training program with a 2.62 run from the store on Wednesday night! 100 people came out to celebrate our marathon runners as they finish training and get ready for the North Carolina Marathon, March 20th! The get together featured FREE shoulder massages of all the marathoners by family and friends, great door prizes and a few boxes of Lucky Charms! The Shamrock Run was done in typical Fleet Feet Style including rubbing a rabbit’s foot for good luck (Nancy in a costume), touching our good luck shoe, and a free piece of Double Bubble, “the best piece of gum you’ll ever get,” says Stacie! Keith brought out our turtle, a powerful symbol for participants in all of our No Boundaries programs – it’s about the journey, the turtle always finishes!
Our event featured not only marathon runners, but runners of all types and ages-our No Boundaries group was there getting ready for their first 5K. Family and friends were there for fun and support! We are proud all the runners who turned out on cold Wednesday night sharing a love of running-26.2, 10K, 5K, 1 mile fun run, as the turtle says it’s all about the journey! Wish our marathoners a little Luck and whole lot of endurance on March 20th. Missed this Social Event at Fleet Feet? Join us Wednesday, March 17th at 6pm for a little leprechaun chasing at the store!
