The Biggest Loser RunWalk is back in Racine for a third year on Sunday, Sept. 21. This year’s event has moved from Festival Park to beautiful North Beach, 100 Kewaunee St.
The Biggest Loser RunWalk is a professionally timed half-marathon or 5k for all fitness levels. Dan and Jackie Evans, Season 5 alumni of the hit NBC-TV series, are your hosts. Bobby Saleem from Season 15 is also participating.
