Okay folks, it’s THE LAST BEFORE RACE WEEKEND!

And everyone knows we couldn’t get through race day without the help of our amazing friends and their signs. 🪧🎉

To celebrate, we’ll be ranking some of the best posters from last year’s race 😉

Starting strong with a 10/10 - this one will always get us to keep running!



9/10 - another classic sign, as long as you tap it! More effective on millennials 🍄

9/10 - as much as we may look it, we don’t want an uber (plus, they couldn’t get through the road closures anyways 😂)

11/10 - truth bomb. Would love to be done faster!

10/10 - what’s your number? 😉

100/10 - let’s be real, they’re the only ones we really care about impressing 🐶

9/10 - oh how we do love to hit the road. Big ups for all the support 🩷

9/10 - if you are fueled by an internal fire that can only be stoked by the fine line that differentiates jogging and running, this one will be very effective! 🔥

10/10 - at the half way point in the race, the marathoners need these straightforward signs. We’re locked in and trying not to think about the fact that we have a whole other half marathon left. 🖤

9/10 - supportive and to the point! We love it 🧡

11/10 - points for creativity! Runners love carbs and carb-related puns. 🍪

11/10 - see previous caption 😉 bonus for incorporating “pain” into the pun along with the carbs.

100/10 - and we saved the best for last! 🥒🎾😂 of course, we prefer marathons 😉

The nerves are REAL in the last two weeks before race day 😬

There’s no such thing as a dumb question when it comes to race day!
