First Light

Run 10K before the world wakes up. A four-week sharpening plan, a race window of your choosing, and a medal that catches first light.

Dawn Patrol is a virtual 10K for runners who already have a few 5Ks in their legs. The four-week plan adds tempo work and one long run a week.

Run it anywhere, at any hour. (We just think it feels better at dawn.)
