On Saturday, October 3rd at 7:30am, ASICS invites runners to join its Rise & Shine with Pacers and NETC supported long run. This event offers pace groups tailored to various speeds—8, 9, and 10-minute mile paces—to accommodate different fitness levels. Participants can choose from three distance options: a 7-mile course for those looking for a shorter outing, a challenging 14-mile route for endurance enthusiasts, or the full 20-mile option for serious long-distance runners. The event kicks off at Pacers 14th St Store and provides an engaging morning experience with giveaways, coffee, and snacks to energize participants before they hit the road. The first 100 registrants will receive custom heat press t-shirts as a special gift from ASICS. Additionally, there are opportunities for runners to take advantage of exclusive discounts on NETC Shop items and purchase ASICS footwear at a reduced rate. ASICS is renowned for its commitment to health and wellness, with the brand’s name derived from the Latin phrase "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano," meaning “A Sound Mind in a Sound Body.” This event embodies that philosophy by encouraging runners to embrace movement as an essential part of both physical well-being and mental clarity. Join ASICS on October 3rd for a morning filled with camaraderie, fitness challenges, and the joy of running.
