Build on your MD5K success with the BRAG Team

May 14, 2013

The KC Express BRAG Team (Beginning Runners Achieving Goals) is our own 10K and half marathon training program. If you’ve done a 5K and are looking for a fun, new challenge, you’re ready to join us! We’ll help you build mileage slowly and form the habit of regular running. And you’ll find friends and training partners all along the way.

BRAG Team meets Saturdays, May 18 through Oct 19 at 6:45 a.m. Training locations vary around the metro each month. Cost is $40 and includes a weekly training plan, a women’s cut BRAG Team tech tee, discounts on goal races, and membership in KC Express. You can train for any race, but we hope you’ll join us for a local goal race this fall or our road trip to the See Jane Run Half Marathon on September 14 in Wichita. For more info or to register: details at BRAG TEAM, view our FLYER, read the FAQ, register BY MAIL or REGISTER ONLINE.

You look marvelous!

Sincere thanks to all of you who helped make our 2013 Mother’s Day 5K a SELL OUT event!

Are you a Dashing Daisy?

April 3, 2013

MDK5 participants have been making a fashion statement for years. Whether its togas, tutus, team t-shirts, or other festive dress, we love to see what our runners and walkers wear on race day! This year, when you dress up, you’ll have the chance to be named a Dashing Daisy. Wow us with your creativity – we’re ready to recognize lots of fashionistas on Mother’s Day.

More than lucky charms…

Real jewelry awaits you at the MD5K Finish Line! Your finisher’s medallion is fine quality pewter, custom-made each year to match the race logo. Wear on the colorful cord, or add to a keyring or charm bracelet. Here are some from past years.

Everyone gets to be glamorous this Mother’s Day

March 24, 2013

We realized it’s not just little girls and first timers who deserve a bit of glitz. This year we’ll have tiaras for all participants. Pick yours up under our big tent after the race.

We’ve got the best post-race eats in town
