10K Run Thru History

Runners......ACTIVATE

Apparently Kristen thinks that us runners are all Transformers.  She also thought that Transformers yelled "Activate" before doing their thing.  I'm fairly certain neither of those things are true but when the boss tells me what the headline should be, I listen.  So let's unpack "Runners.....ACTIVATE" and try to determine the point she was trying to make. 

I am fairly certain that she is very excited that IN-PERSON racing is starting to make a comeback in the Fredericksburg area!  Our race calendar has quite a few familiar races and several new ones for you to consider.  We have everything from a track meet to a half marathon on the schedule.  So, it is time for us to say: Runners......ACTIVATE.  Sign up soon as races are being capped at 225 participants.  

Please check the Arsenal Events Facebook page for race updates and recaps.  Also take a look at www.arsenal-events.com for upcoming races and previous race results.

Halloween 5K and Monster Mile

This event is back for its 5th year!  The Halloween 5K and Monster Mile is the second race in the Stafford Race Series and for this year only is the fifth race in the Coldwell Banker Elite Grand Prix.  Clearly this a very prestigious race, maybe one that is a little snobby even.  I mean it is included in not one but TWO race series.  Very fancy right?  That is until you realize that last year a peanut butter and jelly sandwich ran the race .....in two pieces.  And Richard Simmons has made an appearance.  There has also been a caveman sighting from time to time and lots of other oddities.  So, not really very snobby.  Actually pretty fun.  That is why it typically draws over 300 runners, many in costumes ready to have a good time and face the ultimate test: Halloween Hill.  It is a hill so tough that it will force you to yell, "Runners.....ACTIVATE", in order to make it up.  Please do..... 

The race is capped at 225 runners this year so REGISTER early!
