Fall Run Retreat

Make plans to join us
​October 2021

Our 2020 Fall Retreat has been postponed. After evaluating concerns regarding the unknowns of the COVID virus this fall and in consideration of public health guidelines in planning a safe event, we've come to the difficult decision that we will not be able to offer a running retreat this October. We look forward to an amazing retreat in the fall of 2021! 
At this time, planning for our January 2021 Clearwater Destination Run will continue.

​


2021 Event Details: 4:00 pm Friday - 12:00pm Sunday, Arrowwood Resort in Alexandria, MN
October 2021 Weekend TBD

Our fall running retreat offers a fantastic getaway for you and your girlfriends, or a chance to get to know new running friends! You'll join runners and walkers of all abilities for this inspiring and adventurous girls' getaway weekend.
