It’s no secret that I love all things lululemon. Since the showroom days back in 2009, I’ve been hooked on wunder unders, speed shorts and cool racer backs (I won’t tell you how many I have of each).
lululemon has since exploded in Minneapolis-Saint Paul (MOA store alum!) – and, along with it, their yoga and run community. The premiere event: the RUN: twin K, which is just around the corner.
We’ve participated as both pacers and volunteers, and it’s been fun to see it grow from a race along the river road run path the first year to closing down historic Summit Avenue the second. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for this year!
So, lace up your sneakers and meet at the intersection of PRs and OMs. Join lululemon athletica Twin Cities and 2,000 of your closest friends at the third annual RUN: twin K.
Nick paced the 2013 RUN: twin K (two weeks post Ironman Canada), and I ran way too hard.

Scenes (and, a drone!) from the 2014 RUN: twin K.
If you loved RUN: twin K 2014, get ready for an even bigger, more epic event this year. We’ll enjoy post-race yoga to stretch our hammies, our favorite DJs spinning tunes along the route and a crew of rowdy spectators to keep the sideline party rockin’. Whether you’re going for a PR or looking to get another training run under your belt, RUN: twin K is for everyone.
