Working together

October 23, 2025

As I left my workout class this morning, they had set out coffee for everyone. No extra cost — just a simple table with coffee, creamer and all the milk alternatives so we could head into the day caffeinated.

It was a small gesture, but it made me appreciate the gym.

It felt like we were on the same team — not like the gym was trying to squeeze every dollar out of me.

At Run The Day, we strive to makes races feel the same way about working with us.

Instead of charging for every little thing, we focus on giving races a great experience.

One example: safety pins. We used to charge for them, but we stopped. Our thinking is that instead of nickel-and-diming over small things, if align on the big things and work together, we’ll all share in the success.

Because when races grow, we all win.
