RANnual Celebration
All SAR members are invited to a fun and FREE evening celebrating running!
Join us as we celebrate the beginning of the 2026 season, reflect on the highlights of 2025, and kick off SAR’s 50th Anniversary (1976–2026) in style. Not only will we honor The Running Shop SAR Grand Prix winners, but we’ll also recognize all that SAR contributes to the running community — and share an exciting look at what’s ahead in this milestone year.
We’re having a costume party! Come dressed in the decade you started running. Was it the ’50s, ’60s, ’70s, ’80s, ’90s, 2000s…or just yesterday? We’ll try to guess your running-debut decade. Best costume wins a prize, so dress to impress!
Plus, we’ll have a slideshow of SAR members’ early running photos. To be included, please email up to two early running photos to info@runsar.org. Digital photos only, please.
