Spark Running Celebrates 2 Years

Spark Running in Severna Park will celebrate two years on Nov. 1, but for owner Caitlin Burman, the opening of the store seems like yesterday.

“It’s gone by incredibly fast. I can’t believe it has been the two years already,” Burman said. “The support from the community the last two years has been amazing, and we wouldn’t be where we are without them.”

Spark Running will celebrate the anniversary with a weekend long celebration from Nov. 1-3. The festivities will consist of specials, training sessions and guest speakers.

On Nov. 2, the store will host BayDog CrossFit.

“We’re definitely excited about the BayDog CrossFit workout,” Burman said. “It’s a great resource for runners to do cross training, which is something some runners neglect or are intimidated by.” 

Open water swimmer Traci McNeil will visit Spark Running on Nov. 1 at 5 p.m. Burman said McNeil is one of the better open water swimmers in the area. During her visit, McNeil will talk about an open water team she is starting. She will also raffle off one of her coaching sessions. 

Diva Day will be held on Nov. 3. Women can join in for bra fittings, hors d'oevres, and discounts on women's specific products from Moving Comfort, Skirt Sports and Sweaty Bands.
