LET’S DO THIS! Running Designs LLC is launching guided running adventure trips to some of the world’s most beautiful, majestic locations in the world, starting right here in Arizona’s breathtaking Grand Canyon. Join guide and avid masters runner Melissa Gacek on a tour where you’ll find: a change of pace + a change of place = a new perspective.

THE CANYON IS CALLING YOU! Are you a recreational runner/hiker/walker, in good shape, who is strong in mind and body? Do you want to get away for a few days to get back to the basics of nature, beauty, fresh air, and to feel fully alive? Are you looking to meet a challenge that excites you—maybe even scares you—but is completely doable? Honestly, you don’t need a reason! You don’t have to be a fast or professional runner to do this! Just join us to challenge yourself to reach new heights and meet new goals in the Grand Canyon!

THE COURSE: You decide how you want to challenge yourself. Hike the entire course, or run/hike it at your pace. Either way, you’ll have teammates alongside you supporting you! If you choose bucket list ultra run Rim to Rim to Rim (44-47 miles), run Rim to Rim to Ribbon Falls and Back (50K), or choose the majestic 14-15 miles Rim to Rim in daylight if you keep moving.
