The first run of this 2025 series - the January 4th one: "New Year, New Beginnings" - was amazing! I loved it: the hostess is intelligent and more than capable of running this event + kind and amazing overall, the race community is respectful and familiar (same faces every time mostly, but one can still comfortably join for the first time even now), and the actual online race/event sign-up and 5k racetrack are efficient yet simple enough. I have already completed the second race in February - February 1st: "Heart and Sole" - and the third one of the series in March - March 1st: "Spring Into Wellness" - and registered myself for the upcoming race in April - April 5th: "Paws in Motion". One could register themselves for all of the races at once, but I choose to make a habit out of doing it every month. Each race supports and is connected to a different charity; donations are optional, but much appreciated, and a representative of the given charity arrives and educates for a bit on the morning of each race. There are ten races total in the 2025 year - one each month until July and August roll around (neither of those two months have a race) and then back to once per month; the schedule follows the calendar year and does a "every month of the year" system except for the two hottest summer months for safety and comfort purposes; the race is the first Saturday of every month (except July and August, respectively). No commitment is necessary or expected, but you do get a medal at the end of the 2025 year if you complete all ten races/the whole year of the racing. Good luck and have fun, champ!
