An Added Stop
The RGPS Bay Area stop was not initially on the RunGood schedule but was later added after the success of other stops this year. RGPS also added a new stop at Jack Casino in Cleveland, Ohio from Sept. 22-October 2.
In addition to adding the new stops, RGPS announced the exciting return of Championship rings, a handful of which will be up for grabs at RGPS Bay Area.
