Rated a Top Five Gravel Event by Global Cycling Network and one of the 25 Best Bike Rides in the World by Outside Magazine, RPI has been staged every Labor Day weekend since 2013 in Rebecca's hometown and surrounding backcountry of Sun Valley and Ketchum, Idaho. It delivers it challenge in the middle of America's rugged, and ancient Rocky Mountains.

Started by professional athlete, entrepreneur, and philanthropist Rebecca Rusch to connect people, ride with purpose, and celebrate beautiful places, Rebecca’s Private Idaho is one of the world’s largest and most celebrated gravel cycling races.

If you don’t know about Rebecca Rusch, you should! Not only is she an incredible athlete, but she is an incredible person and founder of The Be Good Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to enriching communities and empowering healing and evolution. The Be Good Foundation creates opportunities for outdoor exploration, personal discovery, and humanitarian service at local, national, and global levels.

Meredith and Alex will be in Ketchum, Idaho for Rebecca’s Private on the weekend of August 30 - September 1 and doing a round table talk at the Expo on Saturday (August 31) and then racing the 104.6 mile distance on Sunday! There are three distances offered so if you can’t swing 104 miles, don’t worry! There are shorter options for you. 18.9 miles and 56 miles.

Event Details

Friday Meet and Greet
We will be at the Runner's Expo and Package Pick Up in the Stampede Grounds (GMC Stadium) at 4:00pm. Stop by for a quick hello, or autograph signing (kidding, Ivy is not available at this time). We want to meet you as much, if not more than you want to meet us!

Saturday AM Shakeout Run & Bagels
Shake off those nerves and cramped travel legs for a short run along the river. And of course we will have bagels and coffee afterwards. Bagels are life (and full of carbs, yum).

Saturday PM Tactic Fitness Group Workout and Nutrition Presentation
We will be hosting our first ever in person Tactic Functional Fitness Group Workout! We will have our Tactic Fitness coaches leading you through a fun workout from warm up to cool down. This is a great opportunity to get real time coaching and feedback as you workout. Afterwards Meredith will give a presentation on Nutrition!

Sunday Race Day & Cheer Squad
Hey everyone, come see how good we look! Some of the best moments from our weekend in Philly was simply hanging out near the finish line, cheering on all our fellow Tactic community members as they finish their race. So if you're not running come join us! Cheering is arguably more fun and there will be a lot of people to cheer for!

If you do want to run, the Calgary Marathon has multiple running distances to choose from including a 5 km, 10 km, 21.1 km or 42.2 km. And for one year only, there is also a 60 km ultra race! And there is a 1.2 km Kids Marathon! You can register for a race here: https://calgarymarathon.com/

Sunday Dinner & Social
Nothing fosters community more than taking time to celebrate our own achievements and the time we had together this weekend with some food and drinks. Plus Meredith has promised her wild alter ego, Mert, will be present for this event.
