So… I usually like to program a 5km run at least once every year. This is usually one of the worst-attended days of the year once word gets out! I’d like to improve on our attendance this time, and maybe even do some good together.
On Saturday, September 13 a charitable event in support of rebuilding and distributing resources to a small community in Haiti is taking place. It is a TEAM event. You each run 5km and your combined time makes the 10k time.
Here is the race description:
The Race: You and your partner begin together at the start line. At the gun, one runner will race the 5 km course clockwise; the other will race counter-clockwise. You will cross paths at some point during the race—a great opportunity to cheer each other on!
Sounds like a unique and fun take on a 5km run to me. Furthermore, I was in conversation with the organizers a few years ago and I think that the work they are doing in Haiti is something pretty special. You can learn some more about what they do here.
The fee is $20 per partner. We’d love to have a strong showing from Sublime. So, grab a partner and sign up at the registration link below. If the weather is nice, I wonder if we might congregate together afterward for a BBQ and some Hooverball ?? To be determined!
