A Running Road Trip Through the Most Picturesque Parts of Michigan
Reebok Ragnar Relay Michigan, happening on Sept. 28-29, 2018, is a magical combination of fall colors, sugar sand beaches, massive dunes and wild Ragnarians.

This 200-ish mile overnight adventure kicks off in the charming town Muskegon. From there, teams run two days and one star-filled night, past historic ships and lighthouses, apple orchards, cherry blossoms and rolling hills painted in vibrant autumn hues.

This overnight running relay race doesn’t stop when the sun goes down (or when the tough gets going!). On Friday, as the sun sinks below the horizon, stars will inspire a sense of wonder. This is when the real fun begins! You’ll have to dig deep and push yourself—and your teammates—to keep running through the night as headlamps illuminate your way and into the sunrise on Saturday morning.

No one starts Reebok Ragnar Michigan alone, and no one finishes alone either. After each team member completes their 3 legs (6 legs for ultra), they’ll cross under the orange arch together in Traverse City – home to some of Michigan’s finest wineries and the sapphire blue Grand Traverse Bay. Tred but triumphant, drained but strengthened a team of 12 individuals becomes 1 team and finds out what they can do when they come together.

Mark your running calendar for Sept. 28-29, and get ready for an unforgettable adventure/ road trip with friends/ race that will inspire your soul.

This overnight running relay race doesn’t stop when the sun goes down (or when the tough gets going!). On Friday, as the sun sinks below the horizon, the moon overhead will inspire a sense of wonder. This is when the real fun begins! You’ll have to dig deep and push yourself—and your teammates—to keep running through the night as headlamps illuminate your way and into the sunrise on Saturday morning.

No one starts Reebok Ragnar Washington D.C. alone, and no one finishes alone either. After each team member completes their 3 legs (6 legs for ultra), they’ll finish together at Yards Park in downtown Washington D.C.—tired but triumphant, drained but strengthened— for together they have done what they could never do alone. Mark your running calendar for Sept. 28-29, 2018 and get ready to experience a different side of the areas surrounding the Nation’s Capital.

Saving Hearts was founded in 2014 after our family suffered the loss of Shane Heyn to suicide. Everyone seems to have their own suicide story and ours started in December of 2012. Shane was one of the strongest men in our family and it hurts us deeply to know he was hurting so bad and felt suicide was the only way to solve the pain. Shane was an amazing, loving, kind man and we had no idea he was suffering.

Saving Hearts was formed to Save the Hearts of people who believe their lives aren't worth living and think suicide is the answer. We also want to Save the Hearts of people like us who are left behind not understanding what happened.

We decided we needed to take action and do our best to help those hurting and help them to realize that their life is precious to so many.

We need to help others see what it means to be loved and wanted. We also want to help to break the silence about mental illness. Banding together with others that have suffered losses and working together for prevention has been such a help in the process of understanding and healing from these tragic events. It should not be something that is swept under the rug and hidden from others. Help is out there and we should never give up HOPE.

It is also our goal to raise money along with awareness for suicide prevention. If we can touch one life, save one heart, save one person from committing this heart breaking act, Shane's death and all those we gather to remember were not in vain.

A Magical Desert Oasis Awaits You and Your Friends
It’s time to take your love of the desert, running and mother nature to the next level. And we mean next level.

Ragnar Trail McDowell Mountain presented by Salomon, happening on Nov. 2-3, 2018, pits you and your running besties against single-track so sublime and views epic you’ll be hooked on that near-gripped euphoria for weeks.

Teams of 8 (or 4 for ultra) spend 2 days, plus one star-filled night, out in the desert at McDowell Mountain Regional Park (just northeast of Scottsdale), where you’ll test your limits on some seriously fun trails with majestic mountain views and epic desert flora and fauna.

Ragnar Trail is an overnight trail running adventure that you can only do with a team. And when the sun goes down, runners make their way through the night with headlamps, under a magical moon a star-lit sky, until every person on their team has completed all three loops on Saturday.

Back home at Ragnar Village you can rest your legs next to the campfire, chow down on s’mores, and relax with your team. This year, runners (friends, co-workers, kids) are welcome to join us a night earlier, starting on Thursday for a bonus day of camping, campfires, kumbaya-ing and fun!

Mark your running calendar for Nov. 2-3, and get ready for one of the most transformative sunrises in the series, this course will not disappoint!

Love chocolate? This run is for you! The Chocoholic Frolic 5k/10k is fun for for all!

Are you competitive? The 5k and 10k are chip timed and you will be rewarded with chocolate at the finish line. Just want to take your sweet time? Run, jog, or walk your way through these courses and enjoy two chocolate stops along the way! At the finish line you will be greeted with melted chocolate and treats for dipping. Each participant will receive a race shirt and a Chocoholic Frolic Finisher Bar.

Take Your Love For The Mountains to The Next Level
Ragnar Trail Los Coyotes-CA, presented by Salomon is the best running party under the stars. Runners will come together on Nov. 9-10, 2018, at the Los Coyotes Reservation, about two hours outside of San Diego.

On Friday morning, the start gun goes off, and teams of 8 (or 4) set out to conquer a series of three rugged single track trails that start and finish at Ragnar Village.  Runners will let loose into an alpine wonderland of junipers, pines, and oaks and experience views of the Anza-Borrego Desert to the east and layers of beautiful mountain ranges to the west.

Ragnar Trail is an overnight trail running adventure that you can only do with a team. And when the sun goes down, runners make their way through the night with headlamps until every person on their team has completed all three loops on Saturday.

Back home at Ragnar Village you can rest your legs next to the campfire, chow down on s’mores, and relax with your team. This year, runners (friends, co-workers, kids) are welcome to join us a night earlier, starting on Thursday for a bonus day of camping, campfires, kumbaya-ing and fun!

This race has been described as, “summer camp for grownups.” Any level of runner can come conquer the trails, but with the second most elevation of any Ragnar Trail in the series, be warned: this race won’t be easy. Come find yourself in this journey of adventure, self-discovery, and sheer nature-loving goodness. Mark your running calendar for Nov. 9-10 and join us at Ragnar Trail Los Coyotes.
