Winter has a way of testing even the best routines. Winter Warriors is a program that gives you a crew, a calendar and a reason to keep coming back.
Join runners and walkers for group runs, challenges and moments worth celebrating together. There’s no single finish line. No pressure to be the fastest. Just a community that supports your choice to show up; for the people beside you and, most importantly, for yourself.

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.
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 running 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 runs (full schedule posted by mid-November) 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 and post standings at the end of the program
- If you haven't noticed, its all about the POINTS!
The Winter Warriors season ends in mid-February after which we will crown our overall Winter Warriors champions at the Winter Warriors end of season party the following week!
WHAT WINTER WARRIORS INCLUDES:
- 10 weeks of social runs and themed runs
- Multiple weekly opportunities to run (rain or shine)
- Join and follow our Fleet Feet Treasure Valley Facebook Group for more fun opportunities to stay connected with the group yearround!
-
A great group of people to hold you accountable
Please view our Winter Warrior Rules for all details.
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.
If you'd like a more structured program toward an end goal, consider joining our next training program. Information about our training programs can be found here!
