Help us raise money

For participating in The 2021 ASICS Falmouth Road Race

Our story…

Special Olympics Massachusetts believes that everyone deserves to be fully included in their community. Through the power of sports, Special Olympics is working to make our lives more inclusive. The funds raised through the 2021 ASICS Falmouth Road Race will provide opportunities for individuals with intellectual disabilities to compete and train in an inclusive and supportive environment.

Make your Road Race count for more than just 7 miles. Join the team of runners supporting Special Olympics Massachusetts! This year, the team is open to runners from anywhere - register for the At-Home Edition and run (or even walk) your race on your favorite course. 

If you join the team, you will be an official member of the Xtra Mile, running the race “alongside” Special Olympics athletes. Our team structure is designed to include athletes of all abilities, so that we can truly experience inclusion together.

WHAT GOING THE XTRA MILE REALLY MEANS:

Anyone can register for the B.A.A. 5K. Anyone can sign up for a race, show up at the start line, and carry themselves to the finish line.

But we know you can do more than that. We know that you look at yourself as a member of the running community, a member of the sports landscape of Boston. And as any good community member, we know you are willing and able to go the Xtra Mile and support a cause that helps that same running community and helps expand the sports landscape in Boston and across Massachusetts. Please consider joining the Special Olympics Xtra Mile ASICS Falmouth Road Race Team to:

Show your support for Inclusion through sports. 

Show you are committed to something bigger than yourself. 

Show you believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to get to the start line and 

Show that you know everyone has the ability to cross the finish line.

Special Olympics athletes do not just show up and receive a medal. They train throughout the season, compete in local and regional competitions and ultimately rise to the State, National and International level based on their skill and personal determination. By Joining the Xtra Mile 5K team, you will be helping to provide high quality training equipment, access to the best venues for competition, and opportunities for individuals with intellectual disabilities to be included in sports and in life.
