Go The Distance Run Club

Hosted by Go the Distance Run Club
7:00 AM - 8:30 AM · Katherine Rose Memorial Park

Go The Distance Run Club is a welcoming running and walking community dedicated to helping people connect, move, and build healthy habits together. Whether you're an experienced runner, a casual walker, or trying something new for the first time, all ages, abilities, and paces are welcome. Our goal is to create a supportive environment where community comes first and everyone feels encouraged to participate. Participants can enjoy a group run or walk, meet new friends, explore local parks and trails, and spend quality screen-free time outdoors. Meetups typically include light stretching, a guided 3–4 mile route, and time to connect with fellow community members before and after the miles. No special experience is required—just bring comfortable shoes, a positive attitude, and a desire to be active with others. We believe movement is better together and that meaningful connections are built one mile at a time. Please visit https://www.instagram.com/gtd_runclub for latest weather updates.

Pilates in the Park

Hosted by Studio Elan
8:00 AM - 9:00 AM · Katherine Rose Memorial Park

Whether you’re brand new to Pilates or have been practicing for years, we’d love to have you move with us in a fun, welcoming environment. This is a wonderful opportunity to get outside, connect with your community, and experience the benefits of Pilates. All you need to bring is a yoga mat, but if you don’t have one, a blanket or large towel works just as well.
