Saginaw Street becomes a portal to winter warmth at the Crim Winter Warm Up Fun Run/Walk at The Flint Crepe Company on February 28, 2026, where the final installment of this three-part series transforms Michigan's coldest season into a celebration of community connection over crepes and camaraderie. This deliberately untimed, self-guided gathering invites participants of all paces to follow suggested 3-mile or 5-mile routes through Flint's urban landscape before reconvening at the beloved local eatery, where complimentary beverages await alongside the option to purchase sweet or savory post-activity fuel. More than a run, this event represents a strategic reimagining of winter fitness—proving that social bonds can form as easily over shared route maps as over shared meals.
With entry priced at just $10 (or $25 for the complete series) and exclusive Crim drawstring bags for the first 50 registrants, the experience democratizes access to consistent winter activity while supporting local business partnerships. Participants can enhance their involvement with custom training hoodies or tech shirts, creating tangible connections between personal fitness journeys and the vibrant small businesses that make Flint's community pulse through even the most challenging seasonal months.

Flint is an industrial city an hour northwest of Detroit in Michigan. It was the home of many General Motors factories, including the Buick World Headquarters, Flint has fallen on hard times over the past 30 years due to the decline of the American automotive industry. Despite these misfortunes, the city has an outsized history, including decisive roles in the growth of the American labor movement and community schooling and evident in a host of extensive and well-endowed cultural institutions. Flint has seen a dramatic reduction in crime while simultaneously enjoying a revitalizing Downtown and growing colleges and universities are found within the city's limits.
