and walking events. Run Wild Racing will be focused on running/walking
related events that are unique, fun, challenging, and exciting.

Olympics, and other MAJOR running and active sporting events. Also,
Run Wild looks to certify most if not all our courses with the USATF.

community, and putting on quality events that everyone can enjoy. Run
Wild Racing, Inc. will take advantage of technology from
every aspect like our chip timing to a remarkable website and back end systems built by Savrus, LLC.
2004 saw growth and learning for Run Wild Racing, Inc.
The average participant level went up exponentially as the season progressed
and we took the feedback we received and implemented many of those ideas
into our process. Some events did not go as well as expected, but
some went much better than expected, so we live and learn as we go.
Run Wild Racing, Inc. looks forward to an amazing
2005 race season and we hope all participants, spectators, volunteers,
and sponsors really enjoy our events.
