Full Service Race Timing and Event Management 

There is no feeling like that of crossing the finish line of an endurance event. No matter if you are first or last, if it is your first race or your 100th, training for and completing a race is a life changing experience. At A Runner's Mind Productions we utilize our experience as athletes, coaches and event producers to create events that leave our athletes buzzing and excited to sign up for their next adventure! 

A Runner's Mind Productions is a full service endurance event production company based in the San Francisco Bay Area. Our bread and butter is assisting clients in fulfilling their race and event production needs. 
ARM Productions was founded out of the A Runner's Mind run specialty shops, as local running stores are the lifeblood and center of the running community.  

We are proud to utilize ChronoTrack technology as our timing platform. ChronoTrack is the industry leader in the timing hardware and software and used on 6 continents, over 50 countries and in 25 of the 30 largest races in the U.S.! ChronoTrack allows us to address all of our Race Director's needs from start to finish.

ome check out our races and stores, and you will fall in love with the wonderful sport that we were all born to do!  ARM Up!

Words from the Race Directors

​“We partnered with A Runner’s Mind to provide race timing and event management services. Frank and Kyle are a pleasure to work with and really understand the needs of the runners, in order to make an event of success. Additionally, they bring great energy to the event and we look forward to partnering with them again for next year’s event”

- Joni Thomas Feed the Need 5K/10K Race Director

"A Runner's Mind has everything imaginable to produce the highest quality race events and delivers it in a friendly manner. They came to our race day, set up their timing and inflatable arch equipment and did an impressive job of making sure our race participants were briefed on race timing procedures that we otherwise would not have been aware of. Their expertise with races especially came in handy and their equipment made our event look much more professional."

- Kristen Leung. Pizza Run Race Director
