Lace up and join RRCA-certified coaches Shelby & Christine for a fun, structured long-run workout with a conversation about running, friendship, and life.

Both coaches share a philosophy that YOU are a runner, and you deserve to be supported and encouraged no matter what pace you run or the distance you are running. So, friends, are you ready? Cause Coaches Shelby & Christine have been cookin' up some goodness for you. Let's go; it's time for bRUNch.
