Join TEAM RAZOR SHARP at the St. Patrick's 5K Run/Walk on March 14th

We had such a good time with the BeMine 5k for Valentine's Day, we decided to do it again!

So, be Wearin' the Green on Saturday March 14, starting off at 9 a.m. for the 2nd annual St. Patrick's 5K Run/Walk.

This fun themed run/walk starts at Jose’s BlueSombrero just down the street from the Washington Avenue club. The route follows the Pike River Pathway. It’s open to everyone, Irish or not! Every participant will receive a custom finisher’s medal, race swag, a goody bag, a free drink coupon and a free entry into our raffles.

This event is hosted by 5kevents.org, a Racine-based organization, and is the second leg of the 2015 Southeast Wisconsin Regional Endurance Challenge. What a great way to get back into your warm-weather running routine! This is a fun spring run/walk; however, for those interested in timing, the course will be timed. 

Registration is $35 through March 8, 2015, then $40 through the day of the event. Register here. When you register, be sure to do so as part of Team Razor Sharp!

Volunteers are also needed for the day of the event and of course, event sponsors. For more information on becoming a volunteer or becoming a sponsor, e-mail for more information, call (877) 651-2440 or visit the event website.

Celebrate fitness and achievement with a festival flair, and kick off the holiday weekend by participating in Southeast Wisconsin’s only St. Pat’s Run!

Join TEAM RAZOR SHARP at the Be Mine 5K Run/Walk Feb. 14th

5kcupid has you in his sites for St. Valentine's Day!

Not sure how to celebrate Valentine’s Day weekend? 

We have the perfect solution. 

Join us on Saturday February 14, 2015 at 10 a.m. for the 2^nd Annual Be Mine 5K (formerly Cupid’s 5K). 

This fun run/walk is open to everyone: singles, couples, males, females and even Valentine’s Day haters. Every participant will receive a custom finisher’s medal, a relationship-status hoodie, and a drink coupon for a post-race social hour at The Chancery, just down the street from our Downtown Racine location.

Just what is a relationship status hoodie? 

The color of your hoodie you receive in your goody bag signifies your relationship status (including an MYOB option!). 

This is a fun winter run/walk; however, for those interested in timing, the course will be timed.

Registration costs are $35 through February 8, 2015 then $40 through the day of the event. Register here.

Volunteers are also needed for the day of the event and of course, event sponsors. For more information on becoming a volunteer or becoming a sponsor, e-mail for more information, call (877) 651-2440 or visit the event website.

Be Mine 5K is hosted by 5kevents.org, a Racine-based organization, and is a kick-off event for the 2015 Southeast Wisconsin Regional Endurance Challenge. 

Happy Holidays, and a Very Razor Sharp New Year to All!

From Toys for Tots Zumba to the Better Together Group Exercise New Year's Party, Razor Sharp made the most of the holiday season...

The Red & Green Zumba class at the Erie Street Club --
Way to rock some antlers and holiday elf stockings!

You can experience the 2014 Ugly Christmas Sweater contest by checking out the album here. Mark your calendars for December 23, '15 as Front Desk/Daycare Director Marianne Lawson attempts to defend her championship.

We were ecstatic to have a great turn-out for the Toys for Tots Zumba event at

Washington Avenue, where a jolly pile of new toys was donated for children who might not otherwise receive any this year. Thanks to Zumba instructors Norma and Gigi, Membership Director Laurie Swanson and Fitness Director Kate Rogan, all of whom helped make this successful, generous and energetic morning a success!

Aqua Blast offers up some holiday spirit

Razor Sharp officially rang 2015 with our January 10th Group Exercise extravaganza. 

An album of pictures from all three clubs' celebration of the new year, and of being fit by working out together, is posted at our Facebook page (you don't need to have a Facebook account to view these!) As part of that day's festivities, we ran a drawing for attendees who posted their pictures with staff to their Facebook or Twitter feeds -- congratulations to Olivia Alcorta, who won a $20 Razor Sharp gift card! Thanks to Olivia and everyone who turned out to make such a great party of the day.

We're looking forward to the coming year, and to getting fit and staying fit together!

Cheers ~
