The 52nd Annual Journal Jog is Sunday, August 27th!
Start your running journey with our 6-week Beginner Running Plan, and a great pair of shoes from Reno Running Company.
A runner’s first focus should be on having proper footwear. Reno Running Company offers a complimentary video gait analysis to help runners and walkers of all ability levels achieve their active lifestyle goals.
The next focus ought to be on prudent training. Our 6-Week Beginner Running Plan is designed to get you to the starting line fit and healthy.
