When Melissa moved to Springfield in 2007, one of the first things she did was call Bass Pro Shops to ask how she could get involved with the Fitness Series. She began with the Wellness Conference in 2008 before stepping into her current role in 2010. What started as a desire to serve grew into years of steadfast leadership and an unwavering belief in the mission of helping people discover what they are capable of.

Ask Melissa why she continues to come back year after year, and her answer isn't about the races—it's about the people. From volunteers and participants to Bass Pro team members, she believes each person plays a role in making the Fitness Series what it is.

Melissa, thank you for never giving up on this mission or on the people it serves. Your leadership, grit, and unwavering belief have carried the Fitness Series through every challenge and every triumph. You have inspired thousands to discover they are capable of more than they ever imagined, and all of us are better because you made that phone call in 2007. We couldn't have asked for a better leader. 💙

Happy Monday! We want to hear some good news from you! 🎉

How is training going? Did you hit a new distance, have a great run, finally get back into a routine, or just make it out the door on a day you really didn’t feel like it?

Big or small, we want to celebrate it with you. Drop your good news in the comments and let us know how you’re feeling as we get closer to Run The Rock!

Danny has been part of the Fitness Series story from the very beginning. In the early years, he was the person we trusted to take care of our celebrity runners, making sure they felt welcomed and taken care of throughout their time with us. Over the years, he has continued to help in countless ways, including being there to help with so much of the printing and behind-the-scenes work that helped our events come together.

And then, of course, there is Dogwood Canyon. Danny has become such a fixture there that he now has a place all his own: “Danny’s Corner.” It is hard to imagine Dogwood without him there, just like it is hard to imagine the Fitness Series without Danny as part of it.

Danny, you are so incredibly special to this team. Thank you for showing up for us year after year and for being such an important part of the last 20 years.

We have exciting news to celebrate 20 years of the Bass Pro Shops Fitness Series!

In honor of our 20th year, we’re donating $20 for every volunteer hour back to one of our sponsored charities. Even better, when you volunteer with us, YOU get to choose which charity your volunteer hour supports!

And we still need plenty of helping hands this fall! Volunteer opportunities are available for Run the Rock, Dogwood Canyon, Marathon Weekend, the Fulbright Spring Greenway Trail Run, and the Zombie Run.

When you give your time to the Fitness Series, you’re helping make these events possible AND giving back to a local organization you care about. That’s a pretty great way to make your volunteer hours go even further!
