Winter Warriors 2025-2026

Winter Warriors 2025-2026

DO IT IN THE RAIN. DO IT IN THE SNOW. DO IT IN THE COLD. DO IT TOGETHER.

The season of gloomy days, colder weather and good, hearty meals is upon us. With that brings the hardest time of year to get out and do what we do: run and walk. 

Every year, the Winter Warriors season arrives, providing a fun way to stay active when the weather would otherwise keep us inside. This year, we are back as warriors together. We want movement to be a practice that helps you overcome, stay mentally and physically healthy and connect you back to your community.

We're here to make it fun: be a Winter Warrior! 

HOW IT WORKS:

  • Attend group activities and you'll earn POINTS
  • Show up when it is raining, snowing or in cold weather and earn more POINTS
  • The more POINTS you earn, the better your reward
  • The one with the most POINTS wins!
  • We track your POINTS through Fitvil (this website) and post standings at the end of the program
  • If you haven't noticed, it's all about the POINTS!

The Winter Warriors season ends Sunday, February 16th, 2026, after which we will crown our overall Winter Warriors champions at a end of season celebration on Tuesday, February 17th!

WINTER WARRIORS INCLUDES:

  • 11 weeks of social runs/walks and themed run/walks
  • Several weekly opportunities to exercise (rain or shine)
  • Join and follow our Facebook Group for more fun opportunities to stay connected with the group!
  • A great group of people to hold you accountable

WHO IT'S FOR:

EVERYONE! Walkers AND runners, exercise beginners and exercise fiends. We really mean it when we say Winter Warriors is for everyone. The goal of the program is to give you incentives to keep moving, whether in darkness, rain, snow or cold weather. We want everyone to stay active this winter.
