FEATURED PRESENTATION: Disrupting the Course: What’s Next in Running

Dec 01 2026

5:00 PM - 5:45 PM CST

Stars at Night Ballroom 1 & 2

OPEN TO ALL BADGE HOLDERS!

The Running Event closes Tuesday’s full day of education with a forward-looking conversation led by the voices redefining running and challenging convention across the industry. In a market driven by competition, overconsumption and endless branded content, the boldest move may be to slow down and get intentional – a shift that can drive lasting growth for both your business and the sport. Moderated by Ashley Mateo of RUNHER, this panel brings together Scott Maguire, President and COO of On; Olympian and professional runner Nikki Hiltz; Pablo Gil, Co-Founder of Metta Running House; and creator Tommie Runz for a candid conversation about staying authentic and innovative while resisting the noise – and about the new models, communities and ideas that will reshape what running can become over the next twenty years. Attendees will leave inspired and ready to take action in their own communities.

Don’t miss an exclusive sneak preview of KICK, the documentary following Nikki Hiltz’s quest to make Olympic history!
