About this race

The club founder, Shanell @sweatwithshanell wants nothing for her birthday but to move her body and connect with others whilst doing so.

The Concept
We’re taking on a 3 mile route, with a twist. Every half mile, runners will hit a 30-second challenge led by our plush pacers.

Expect a mix of:
Short sprints
Bodyweight exercises
Silly surprises
And maybe a few birthday-themed twists
No pressure, no strict rules… modify as needed or skip a challenge if you’d like. This is about having fun together in honor of a milestone birthday.

Pace Groups
All paces are welcome! Our plush pacers will guide different pace groups so everyone has a great experience. Whether you’re cruising, jogging, or mixing in walks, you’ll have a crew.

A supportive, inclusive run club atmosphere
Clearly marked route with group checkpoints
Music, energy, and plenty of encouragement
A few surprises along the way
Birthday energy is encouraged! 
Come Enjoy some goodies from our favorite brands and friends at Queenzreign and HOTWORX Apex.

Post-Run Celebration in Raleigh

This is a fun run, not a timed race. There are no winners, just good miles and great people.

 Come run, laugh, and get a little “dirty” as we celebrate turning 30 the best way we know how together.
