🚨 Magic Sports and Tri Louisville need your help this Sunday!

Due to the latest Ohio River water-quality results, Tri Louisville’s swim has been canceled and the races will now follow a run-bike-run format. That means 6 additional Run Course Sentries are urgently needed to help encourage and direct runners, manage pedestrian crossings, and keep the course moving safely.

Back-to-school checklist: backpack, supplies, lunchbox, and shoes that actually fit.

Kids’ feet can change fast, especially after a summer of running, playing, growing, and wearing shoes hard. Before the school year starts, bring them in for a proper fit so they’re ready for long school days, recess, gym class, sports, and everything in between.

At KCRS, we’ll help make sure they’re in the right size, the right support, and a pair they’re excited to wear.

✅ Stop by and check shoes off your list.

is better because of the people who show up. 💙

Thank you to everyone who came out last night, put in the work, cheered each other on, and made the track feel like community.

Join us next Tuesday, same time and place. As always, it’s free, friendly, and open to all paces and levels.

Fresh bounce just hit the wall. 👀

The ASICS NOVABLAST® 6 is here at KCRS, bringing that soft, springy, energized feel for daily miles, long runs, and everything in between.

With FF BLAST™ MAX foam, a forefoot trampoline pod, and updated ASICSGRIP™ outsole rubber, this one is built for softer landings, confident traction, and that “one more mile” kind of ride.

Come try it on at KCRS, then drop a 💙 if the NOVABLAST® 6 is on your list.

Medal Monday, KCRS style. 🏅

From the St. Matthews Independence Day 5K to Firecracker races, trail miles, and more, it was a fun holiday weekend for the KCRS community. We love seeing where your running and walking adventures take you.

Drop a 🇺🇸, 🏅, or comment below if you got miles in this weekend.

Monday check-in: when was your last shoe fitting? 🤔

Your foot size and volume can change more than you think. Heat, mileage, swelling, training load, pregnancy, injury, aging, and day-to-day time on your feet can all affect how your shoes fit.

Stop by KCRS for a fresh fit so your next miles, walks, and workouts feel better from the ground up.
