Welcome to Wild River Running!
Thank you for signing up for our Run With The Wild email newsletter!
We saw that ChatGPT video about running, filmed right here in Stillwater, and thought… pretty good. But it was missing a few things.
Like how Stillwater has built one of Minnesota’s strongest high school running traditions.
And how the St. Croix Valley Runners, started in 1980, still meet regularly for group runs.
The fact that @runstillwater brings thousands of runners to the valley from May through September.
The hills. No explanation needed.
And the locally owned run specialty store that provides more than just shoes and gear. A place where runners gather, connect, and build community.
So we thought it was only right to make our own version. Thanks, @sulianasolano, for the inspo!
❤️ @asicsrunning for always being excited to do cool things with our community!
❤️ our beautifully talented friend @lilylancaster for bringing our idea together life!

This cooler weather has us thinking about crisp mornings, fall miles, and of course, the Birkie Trail Run Series in the beautiful Northwoods of Wisconsin! 🌲
With an incredible atmosphere, cool trails, and a unique variety of distances (like the Marathon Relay and brand new 10K), there’s seriously something for everyone.
If you’re looking for a fun fall adventure and a supportive race environment, this is a trail experience worth putting on your calendar!

🏁 Run Stillwater 〰️ St. Croix Crossing 🏁
We’ll see ya at the Water Street Inn during packet pickup this Friday from 3 PM - 6 PM!
Come try out two of the most popular shoes from ASICS!
Novablast 6 : So much fun, so much bounce. Makes easy miles and uptempo workouts feel smooth.

A bunch of people deciding to spend an hour together after work. Running, talking, meeting someone new, cheering each other on. That’s the good stuff.
Thanks for shopping small, keeping it local, bringing the snacks, telling your friends, and making Wild River Running more than just a store.
