Our Story
Coming back from the mountains or the desert at the end of the weekend has never been an easy thing. Maybe it’s the seamless views out to the horizon, or the colors in the canyons that just pop more than elsewhere, or the feeling of accomplishment that tired legs seem to bring. Undoubtedly, it’s the good times had with other runners as we share miles, peaks, and the occasional struggles to get there.
Those moments inspired us to go a step beyond just taking them back as memories. We want to create a platform to enable other athletes to have similar experiences. We want to share the joy of trail running, mountain peaks, and those hard-earned accomplishments. We want to educate athletes to explore safely so they can do it time and time again.
That’s where we are at today. We welcome you to join us as we run toward a future of many more miles and a community of athletes who share their trails and the stories that they take back with them.
Our Mission
At Run Infinite, we believe in the freedom of running and its ability to shape any life. Running has the power to take athletes anywhere they set their mind and body to go. The possibilities are infinite. Our mission is to provide athletes at all stages of their journey with resources that enrich athletic pursuits, educate on sustainable use of trails, and grow an inclusive and encouraging community of athletes.
Our Values
