3 Reasons Why You Should Run the Insane Inflatable 5K Saturday

The Insane Inflatable 5K is tomorrow in Superior and if you haven't signed up for the event yet, it's not too late.  I did it last year and I have 3 reasons why you should jump in this year.

1. It's Unlike Any Other 5K You'll Ever Do

There are a lot of themed 5K runs out there, but nothing like this one.  Not only do you get to climb on and through huge inflatable obstacles, buy the course features a lot of grass so it's almost like a trail run.  Rather than pounding the pavement, you get to navigate some terrain and finish by going down a big slide.  It's a fun experience to be sure.  If you have trail running shoes, you could wear those, but regular running shoes work too.

2. It's A Fun Way to Get Exercise

A lot of people are counting steps or finding ways to stay healthy by getting exercise.  This will not only get you a lot of steps, but the climbing and jumping through the obstacles will give other muscles a little workout.  You can take your time through the course or challenge yourself, but either way your body will thank you for the activity.

3. Day Drinking Anyone?

Most of the people I know who do 5K events do so because when it's all said and done, they love to have a couple drinks with other participants to discuss their adventure and have some laughs.  The Insane Inflatable 5K is no exception!  After you finish, hang out for a little bit near the course and then make your way to the official after-party at Aces on 29th in Superior.  The official party hours are 2 p.m. - 4 p.m. on Saturday.
