The RUNROO Crew

Run with the crew.

A race is one morning. The crew is planned as the rest of the year: training plans, course previews and early word when registration opens.

Runner Portal

Everything in one place.

The runner portal is planned for launch. Here is what it is being built to do.

Your race history

Every RUNROO finish you have ever run, with chip time, gun time, pace, age group place and the split if the course had one. Sorted by date or by how fast you were.

Training plans

Six-week and ten-week 5K plans written for the race you signed up for, not a generic calendar. Couch to finish line, first sub-30, first sub-25. Printable and phone friendly.

Course previews

Turn-by-turn maps, elevation, where the water stations sit and a walkthrough video shot from the course. Know the course. Enjoy the race.

Early registration

Early access to registration for crew members is planned for launch, so the people who show up all season hear about new races first.

Volunteer sign-ups

Pick your shift and your position before the general call goes out. Volunteer perks are announced per race.

Race Notes

Our writing, sent when it is worth sending. Training, course intel, what your registration fee actually funds, and the occasional honest post-race debrief.

Give A Morning

The crew that makes race day.

Roughly one volunteer for every twenty runners. That is the whole difference between a 5K that feels like an event and one that feels like a group jog. Shifts run two to four hours, coffee and a shirt included, and you are back in your own kitchen before lunch.

Volunteer perks are announced per race.

Packet pickup

Friday afternoon or race morning. Hand out bibs and shirts, answer the same five questions kindly.

Course marshal

One corner, one radio, one job: point runners the right way and keep the turn clear.

Water station

Pour, stack, hold the cup out at arm's height. The loudest and most photographed job on course.

Finish line

Medals, water, and telling every single finisher they did well. Especially the last one.

Families and runners in numbered bibs moving together along the course at a RUNROO race

Same course. Same chip. Same finish line.
