What a night! We came together to celebrate, connect, and reflect on an incredible year of running. The ShadowChase Awards Banquet wasn’t just an event—it was a gathering of our running family, a chance to honor our fellow runners’ dedication, resilience, and hard-earned achievements. From early morning miles to unforgettable races, every step led to this moment. As we kick off 2025, let’s take a moment to applaud the stars of our community and their impact on the roads and trails we love. Here’s to another year of chasing goals and crossing the finish lines!
