Date: Sunday, May 26th

Race Time: The race will begin at NOON sharp
(Please arrive 15-20 minutes early for sign-in, race bib, stretching, etc.)


Group Photo: ~11:55 am (right before race starts)

Picnic Lunch in Ziegler Park*: ~1:30 p.m. (after everyone finishes)

Location: Eisenbahn Trail, paved. Trail access from Ziegler Park. Bathrooms available.

Distance: 3.1 miles total (2 loops on one trail segment to avoid car traffic)


RACE INFO:

All registered individuals will get an official race bib to pin to their shirts. Please log your "Will Attend" prior to the day of the race so that I can order enough bibs! Make sure you mention how many people on your team are walking/running.

Water and/or gatorade will be available for participants at the halfway and finish line as well as homemade treats from ThePharmGirl.

This is a fun run/walk in which all levels of ability are welcome to participate. The 1st Place male, female, senior (over 65), and kid (under 18) finishers will receive a special prize to be determined by ThePharmGirl. The top 5 finishers from each category will be posted on the cache page for bragging rights.

Additional note:
I politely request that you do NOT bike or rollerblade during this event for safety reasons.

PICNIC INFO:

After the event, we will relax at Ziegler Park with a bring-your-own picnic lunch, where we can eat, talk, mingle, and congratulate ourselves for completing the 5K. The park has limited picnic tables and no grills, so this is a rustic Yogi Bear type of picnic. Bring a blanket and your picnic basket.


Volunteers Needed: Please let me know if somebody from your team/family is interested in being a volunteer instead of a race participant. I need:
Official Timer:
Official Logbook/Race Record Keeper:
Official Photographer:
Water Station Attendant(s):
Official to Blow the Starting Horn


Disclaimer: This is not an official race. It's just a fun gathering for geocachers who would like to exercise together. Choose your own pace based on your ability. By logging a Will Attend and/or actually attending this event, you agree that you are responsible for your own health and safety. I am not responsible for any injuries that may occur.

P.S. No, I will not be hiding any caches for this event. It's the NADA Cache Dash.
