There are so many great runners in the world and we will be providing information on them. We will be adding more every day. To find someone, just type in their name in the search.

We need your help to keep our profiles up todate. By clicking the update link at the bottom of the profile you can update the profile. Once it is reviewed it will go live. You can also update or add a photo. Thanks for your help.
We encourage all runners to set up a more complete profile on the Ujena Fit Club website. It is free and offers many features you will enjoy. If you are an elite runner and would like to participate in a Double Road Race, contact Bob Anderson at bob@doubleroadrace.com
