Additional Information:
HOW DOES IT WORK? Participants can run, walk, or skip any of three distances: 5K, 10K, or half-marathon. We encourage you to sign up individually or with a group of "teammates" from your institution or company. Your pace, route, and schedule are totally up to you! Whether you decide to run on a treadmill, down city streets, or through wooded trails, we do ask that you practice social distancing and follow public health ordinances set by your local government. All proceeds from race registration and fundraising will go towards the NACAS Foundation.
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? The first 150 people to register will receive a racing number/bib, along with a "swag bag” filled with gift cards and items to ‘fuel’ you during your walk/runs. The swag bag, valued at over $150, is brought to you in part by PrismRBS! Registrants will also be provided with an electronic invitation package to fundraise for the NACAS Foundation. A minimum fundraising target is suggested at $150 per person, and if you raise $200 or more, your registration fee will be reimbursed!
HOW CAN I CONNECT WITH OTHER RACERS? Participants will be invited to join an exclusive Facebook NACASCARES Run/Walk page, to post pictures, share stories, ask questions. Upon completion, participants are encouraged to post photos, time (if desired), and distance. They will then be sent an electronic finishers certificate and be eligible for endless “bragging rights!"
