April
- 6:00 pm
Join us for our April meeting, where we’ll focus on the technology that supports our health journeys. Members and attendees are encouraged to bring and share the apps, devices, or tools they use-whether it’s a fitness tracker, running app, or wellness platform-and talk about how it helps keep you motivated, track progress, and reach your goals. This will be a great opportunity to learn from each other and discover new ways to support our wellness together!
We will start the evening at 6:00 pm with the MD5K Training Team. The meeting will start at 7:00 pm. Snacks will be provided.
When: Tues, April 7, 6:00 pm
Where: Meadowbrook Park, Shelter #2, 9101 Nall Avenue, Prairie Village, KS 66207
Many members train for specific goals or events with the Sat Walk & Run Groups. From time to time, we offer additional training opportunities. We are adding an opportunity for a run or walk on Tuesday evenings (except for First Tuesday meeting nights). Women of all ages and abilities are welcome. Go your own pace and as far as you would like. Beginning March 31, join us for KCE’s Training Team Tuesdays at Meadowbrook Park from 6 – 7pm.

We are not sure who has more fun at the KC Express Mother’s Day 5K, the participants or the volunteers! Sign up, show up, bring a friend or a loved one, and enjoy yourself. Though we’ve gone virtual for 2026, we still have opportunities to volunteer! It only takes a few hours of your time, and it is GREATLY appreciated by the KC Express, as well as the women and girls who come to the event. Thank you so much for your time, energy and commitment to make this morning so fun for all! Remember, men and boys can volunteer, too (they just can’t run in the race).
