RunStrong Relay

The RunStrong Relay is a high-energy team event scheduled for Saturday, April 11, 2026, in Flint, MI. Hosted by Sal’s Gym, this race serves as the official grand opening celebration for the facility. The event combines a competitive four-person relay with a festival atmosphere featuring music and community energy, encouraging participants to "come for the race and stay for the party."

Participation and Logistics

The relay challenges four-person teams to each complete one 2.1-mile lap through the scenic Chevy Commons. Teams can register in three distinct categories: All Male, All Female, or Mixed. Final standings are determined by the combined total time of all four teammates. Every participant receives an event t-shirt and a 14-day trial of the RunStrong Strength & Endurance Program. Packet pickup begins at 7:30 AM at the gym on race morning. Please note that the deadline to guarantee a t-shirt with registration was March 23rd.

Awards and Community

Prizes will be awarded to the top-performing teams in the Male, Female, and Mixed categories. Beyond the competition, the event focuses heavily on community building and the launch of the new fitness space. Whether teams are aiming for a podium finish or simply participating for the social experience, the start and finish lines at Sal’s Gym will serve as the hub for the grand opening festivities.

Registration and Fees

Registration is tiered based on the number of entrants. The early bird rate of $28.74 applies to the first 50 registrants, after which the price increases to $34.09 for all subsequent runners. All fees are inclusive of mandatory charges and service fees.
