We say goodbye to an epic year and hello to a new year filled with returning favorites and brand new challenges you won’t want to miss! Kicking off 2025 we have the Rocky Montage Workout and a bunch of opportunities to get outside for runs and races. No matter how cold or wet the winter gets we’ll make the most of it! Especially with Freezing Fitness 3: Columbia Drift! When we challenge ourselves that’s how we become stronger and more capable as athletes and in regular life! So let’s make 2025 our most epic and amazing year yet!
SCHEDULE REMINDER: There is no class on New Year’s Day (January 1st). Classes are still happening December 30-31st. RUN COACHING and TRAINING classes are still at Badger Mountain Trailhead Park before moving locations in January. Then we’re back to normal schedule January 2nd.
NEW YEARS DAY GROUP RUNS: While there are no classes New Year’s Day we want to invite everyone to join us January 1st at Howard Amon Park at 12PM for the Annual New Year’s Day Fun Run/Walk! And if you’re really feeling daring you can join us at McBee Trailhead at 7AM with the Nomad Trail Runners too!
UPCOMING EVENTS
ROCKY MONTAGE
WORKOUT
January 4 – 10AM
Badger Mountain Community Park
Train like the Champ! Come join us for this Rocky Montage inspired workout! Meet us at Badger Mountain Community Park (by the dog park) for this 1 hour workout and then for extra credit run up Glenwood Ct to the lookout with us for the full Rocky experience!

FROZEN TUNDRA
TRAIL RUN
January 25
Big Cross XC – Pasco, WA
Frozen Tundra has been one of our favorite races. Great for our first time trail runners with the 2.5 miles of rolling hills. Also new this year is the 5 mile race that does two loops of the 2.5 mile course. Come join our team and help us try to win this event once again!
FREEZING FITNESS:
COLUMBIA DRIFT
February 1 – 12PM
Columbia Point Marina Park
Freezing Fitness returns for the third installment! Join us for the 45 minute workout and then another jump into the Columbia River! Like the last two time the jump in the river is optional, but after warming up in the workout that water didn’t feel so bad! You will need to bring a towel and a warm change of cloths to get into quickly after the cold plunge in the river!
