Sign Up & Start Training

Choose a Summer or Fall Run or Ride

Some long-time favorite Spokane and North Idaho races and events like the Spokane River Run, Hauser Lake Icebreaker Run, and Ski to Sea have sadly been canceled due to COVID-19. And a few others like the Spring Dash in Coeur d’Alene have opted for a virtual race format where participants can run or walk their own 5-mile route anytime between April 18-30 to support the Coeur d’Alene Coronavirus Relief Fund. Other races have opted for postponing events until later in the summer or fall in hopes that the current situation will improve by then. Now is a great time to spend more time outside running, walking, or riding locally while maintaining social distance. Sign up for one of these events and give yourself an added motivation to get out as much as you can. Want more inspiration and virtual company? Fleet Feet Spokane is offering a virtual training program for runners. Learn more at Fleetfeet.com/s/spokane/training/fleet-feet-running-club.
