Racing
We are a group of like-minded runners and walkers in Northeast TN and Southwest VA. Unlike some racing teams, winning is not our first priority (but is certainly applauded!). We aim to promote physical activity in our community and demonstrate that running and walking are great activities regardless of speed or ability.
The team is sponsored by Fleet Feet Sports of Kingsport. Read on for more information about the team and how to join!
What You Get:
1. Teammates - It's simply more fun running on a team! It's a great way to meet other local athletes as well as provide training partners from time to time.
2. Discounts. Throughout the year, we'll have special offers and giveaways for members of our team.
3. FREE 2011 racing top - By submitting 12 or more running performances or 6 or more multi-sport performances during 2010 and 2011, you’ll receive a free top for 2012.
