Dear Bad Mother Runners,
The excitement is building as we countdown to the upcoming Run This Mother 5K and Half Marathon happening this Sunday! I’m Kristine Burciaga, the Dragon Mother and owner of E-Dragon Productions, and I cannot wait to celebrate this incredible day with all of you.
Picture yourself standing at the starting line surrounded by hundreds of strong, inspiring women ready to take on the beautiful Salado Creek Trail together. From first-time runners to seasoned athletes, this event is about more than miles — it’s about strength, determination, community, and celebrating motherhood in all its forms.
Whether you are chasing a personal record, walking alongside friends, honoring your journey as a mother, or simply showing up for yourself, know that this race was created for YOU. Every step on the course represents resilience, sacrifice, love, and the unstoppable spirit that mothers carry every single day.
Get ready for an unforgettable morning filled with amazing finisher bling, incredible energy, breakfast tacos, coffee, aguas frescas, flowers, chocolates, music, and a finish line celebration you truly deserve. Our entire E-Dragon Productions team has worked hard to create a race experience produced by runners for runners, and we are honored to share it with you.
Thank you for being part of this special event and trusting us to be part of your running journey. We are beyond excited to cheer you on every step of the way.
See you Sunday morning, Bad Mothers — let’s make memories together and RUN THIS MOTHER!
With love and excitement,
