Our next No Boundaries session will begin in March 2010. Please check back soon for details on our next session.

The New Balance No Boundaries program is designed for those with little to no running experience who would like to complete their first 5K road race.

Last year over 200 people successfully completed the program. The registration fee of $75 also includes a team tech shirt and entry into the goal 5K event.
