    Get ready to lace up for our 2nd Annual [Un]Leash the Fun! This year, we aren't just running for fitness—we’re running for Mack (the good boy in the picture). 🌈

    If you knew Mack, you knew a dog who lived life to the fullest for 14 beautiful years. He was a connoisseur of extra-sharp cheese, a professional sun-soaker, and a world-class singer whenever the fire whistle blew. Whether he was cuddling a shark stuffie or enjoying his daily pup cup, Mack was the definition of "spoiled" in the best way possible.

    Mack’s family fought a brave battle alongside him against kidney disease—navigating special diets, IV fluids, and everything in between. While Mack eventually gained his wings, his legacy of joy and resilience stays behind.

    This year, every mile we clock honors Mack’s 14-year legacy and the incredible bond between a dog and his family.
