***IMPORTANT INFORMATION - WEATHER UPDATE***

Good morning ladies!

We promised you all an update on the status of the 5k due to the weather this morning. Unfortunately, Hurricane Ian is still being uncooperative and the timeline we were hoping it would follow just isn’t what has ultimately happened. We have spoken with officials at state and local levels and have been encouraged to continue on as a virtual event this year. According to the forecasts this area will still be receiving heavy rain and strong winds at the time the event is scheduled tomorrow morning. Along with the information from the forecasts, officials have cautioned us that there is a great chance that the roads may be flooded, trees may be down, power outages at the venue, etc that would all make holding the event in person unsafe for participants and volunteers. As a company that stands for the safety of women, who would we be to put any of you at risk?

With all of that said, the TransformHer 5k 2022 has officially become a virtual event. An email will follow to all participants with the details on completing and submitting your virtual event time as well as an awards reception next week to give out trophies and medals.

Shirt/packet pickup for everyone who registered before the cutoff date will be available this evening at Callison Recreation Center from 5:30-7:30pm.

We look forward to seeing you all back in person next October! Mark your calendars tentatively for October 14, 2023. We have some fun surprises up our sleeves for the next event!

The TransformHer 5k has always served to benefit domestic violence victims and bring awareness to that cause. We, as a company, are passionate about the safety of ALL women. Regardless of their circumstances.

Recently, a female member of the running community lost her life to a senseless act of violence. Many have been quick to judge - she shouldn’t have been running alone, she shouldn’t have been out so early, she should have been carrying protection… The simple fact is, It should be safe for her to exercise. Period.

Completely coincidentally - our event shirts this year are pink - the color Eliza was wearing on her last run. As a display of support and solidarity in the belief that all women should be safe no matter what the circumstances - we would love for you to wear your event shirt to the race (or a different pink shirt). We would also love for any race pictures you may share to be hashtagged with as well as our .

Can’t wait to see you all October 1 for an amazing morning! If you aren’t registered yet - what are you waiting for? Registration is open until September 28! It’s going to be the best day ever!

Did you know that September is National Self-Care Awareness Month? We've talked about this before, but women are notorious for neglecting our own needs at the expense of others. While caring for others is great, self-care is extremely important.

Practicing self-care promotes a healthy relationship with yourself to the benefit of your physical, mental, and emotional health. When you are unable to care for yourself, it is nearly impossible to care for others. Therefore, self-care allows you to establish a positive mindset that will translate to good feelings and emotions for others around you. By making the time to let yourself recharge, you will improve the outlook of yourself and others as well as develop significantly lower unhealthy amounts of stress.

Self-care looks different for everyone. For some it is as simple as eating healthier, for some it may be taking a relaxing bath or getting a massage, it may be meditation to clear your mind, or another great form of self-care is making sure you exercise and move your body.

What is your favorite way to practice self-care?
