This month's Studio Sessions means a little more.

We're coming together to support our very own Gerardo and Celeste and help raise funds for their son, Ezequiel. EZ was recently diagnosed with Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis and has begun treatment. Through all of it, the little dude has been an absolute trooper.

If you've shared some miles with Gerardo and Celeste, you already know what kind of people they are. Tough, kind, inspiring, and always showing up for the people around them. Now it's our turn to show up for them.

Let's show them what this community is all about.

We'll have a few ways to donate throughout the morning:

Coffee from Stampede Coffee with proceeds going directly to EZ
$5 live screen printing. Bring your own garments and we'll print them on the spot.
$5 raffle entries for your chance to win NCRC merch and a pair of shoes from our friends at Road Runner Sports

All proceeds from these fundraising efforts will go directly to EZ and his family.

Run. Hang. Drink coffee. Print something. Enter the raffle. Throw a few bucks in. Every little bit helps.

Date: Saturday, 08.29.26
Where: Valentine Studios | 240 East Grand Avenue, Escondido, CA 92025
Meet: 8:00 AM • Roll Out: 8:15ish AM
Distance: 2.6 miles (+ 1 mile Esco Sign add-on)

And because apparently we needed one more reason to celebrate, we’ll also be getting some birthday miles in for our boy Nick. Come show him some love and help us celebrate another trip around the sun.

Joining us for the morning:

Stampede Coffee (FKA Bad Coffee Co)
Cafecito Vinyl Club
Electrolit
Hidden City Nutrition

All paces welcome. No pressure. Just easy miles, good coffee, good music, and a chance to rally around one of our own.

Show up. Show some love. Let's make this one count.

¡¡¡NO PASA NADA!!!
