Friends, Beavercreek Pizza Dive will be closed tomorrow due to necessary repairs, and thus, we will not have our pizza run this month.

In the interim, please swing by BPD when they reopen and show them some support! We'll see you the last Wednesday in July!

Tuesday 27 June - CLOSED
Wednesday 28 June - CLOSED

For those that weren't aware, we've been working through the unfortunate circumstance of our air conditioning unit breaking down. With the heat and humidity rising, we've made the decision to close for a few days for the safety of our team. It gets pretty hot in the kitchen with the pizza ovens on, so we will be closed until we can properly cool the store. Our landlord should have the new system fully installed Wednesday Night and we are planning to re-open on Thursday. Thanks to all of our awesome customers for your understanding!

Supporting our Community and Supporting Local, since 2008!

ARP teammates Brandon and Leslie took 1st and 2nd overall today at the Mills Lawn Bulldog Jog! Meanwhile the little ones 😴 the entire time. ♥️

Yesterday's Fairborn Flyer 15K marked the final race of 2022 and what I had stated would be our last event, at least for a year. It was beyond touching how many reached out and shared their stories about what ARP has meant to them, humbling to be honest.

I started ARP because I had a vision for a few great races in the area, I certainly didn't set out to create a community. However, I accidentally created a community which is so much better than any of the events. The events are merely a component of that community but the community will go on with or without the races so don't fret.

I've a tremendous amount of soul-searching to do over the coming year. I will miss the events for sure while I figure what the road ahead looks like. In the interim I am excited to spend more time with Ashley and Hunter, I owe it to them both.

You all know where to find me and expect to still see posts on social.

P.s. Totally aware the website is a mess. Hackers had a field day with it. It's free of hackers now but it's going to be a minute before I can rebuild it. Stick to social for updates until then.

In 2019 I met a woman by the name of Mandy Shoopman. We crossed paths when she was looking for some help organizing a race to raise funds for the victims of the 2019 tornadoes. That fall she helped me out at the Gem City Classic. At all but one event since she has helped me. More times than we probably both care to count we've met up at 0230 on race day to setup and she's always the last one there with me long after everyone is gone.

I cannot put into words how thankful I am for the help Mandy has provided. She has been ol' faithful. Thanks for everything Mandy, you've been a savior time and time again and have made ARP events what they are. The world needs more Mandy's...

Friends, before this weekend's Fairborn Flyer 15K I wanted to share a brief note.

I have spoken with many of you all this past year about the future of ARP and whether or not there will be races in 2023. I will not mince words, I don't think I will be producing them next year. I'm unsure if that means I will be selling the races (happy to talk to anyone interested in purchasing the races/ARP), if it's the end of ARP, or just a strategic pause. I honestly do not know.

For five years I have run ARP singlehandedly all while having another full time job, run some 15,000 miles of my own, went back to grad school, got married, had a child, been on five different boards, and have had various other commitments mixed in. All of that through a pandemic no less. I am simply tired at this point. Thus, I would like to make 2023 about catching my breath, spending time with my wife and son, and refocusing my energies to see what life is telling me is next.

I cannot thank enough the thousands upon thousands of runners who have participated in an ARP event since I launched the company five years ago. I have learned so much from you all and I have made relationships that have changed the fabric of who I am. For that I am indebted to you all. Thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of your journeys, it has been an immense privilege. You all also helped raise nearly $30K for local charities through our events these past five years, something you all should be so proud of.

I'm still here, still running, and for those who know me well, still looking at and photographing birds. Thanks again, it has been hella fun. Stay in touch.

I'll see y'all Saturday!

Regards,

Brandon Hough

P.s. We can keep doing pizza runs, those are kick ass.

Been a tad busy with family, school, and life, but two things...

1 week away to the final race of the season (email will come out Wednesday).

And...tomorrow I'm racing the NYC Marathon. It's going to be 74* by the time I finish so I've decided to go out a fair bit slower and want to just have fun. Follow along if you'd like with the NYC Marathon app, bib #487! Wanted to wear a singlet that reminded me it's not that serious and it's about fun.

Thanks for all the support, y'all rock.

It's fall y'all!

Out: Mosquitos. Muggy workouts. Showering 2x a day. Drinking straight from the hose and still feeling dehydrated. Squishy shoes after long runs. An unforgiving sun.

In: Corn mazes. Pleasant runs followed by apple cider. Watching leaves fall as you run by. Pumpkins & PRs!

What's your favorite thing about fall?

We had a lot of fun today at the Air Force Marathon because it is such a fantastic event.

ARP Elites performed well! Christina Johnston and Irene Musgrove were 2nd and 28th OAFs in the half, Jake McCubbin and Chris Lane were 6th and 32nd OAMs in the half, and ARP founder Brandon Hough was 1st OAM in the 10K.
