Runs & Road Races
5Ks to marathons. USATF-certified. 14 years at the BMW Dallas Marathon. Running events require coordinated logistics across course setup, timing, participant management, and vendor operations.
What we handle.
Running events require a production timeline most organizations underestimate. Our team has been producing them for decades and have built our processes around what they actually require. Our clients work with a team that already understands the demands of race production.
Route Design & Permitting
We design race courses, coordinate physical course marking, and manage the city relationships required to get a route approved and ready. The logistics of putting a course on public roads start earlier than most organizers expect.
USATF Certification
We handle course measurement and USATF certification for sanctioned events — end to end. Certified measurement, documentation, and submission so your race qualifies for national standings and age-group records.
Race Timing
We coordinate trusted RFID timing partners for every road race we produce. Our network includes some of the best timing operators in the industry — real-time results, age-group scoring, and finish-line displays handled by specialists we've vetted.
Vendor Management
Aid stations, timing systems, fencing, medical support, finish-line production: every vendor is sourced, contracted, and accountable to us so nothing falls through on race day.
Public Safety Coordination
We coordinate police, medical, and crowd management across the full course — not just the start and finish — so participants are supported at every mile.
Participant Communications
We manage all participant-facing communications: wave assignments, bib pickup instructions, course maps, weather updates, and post-race results — so your inbox stays clear and participants stay informed.
