From the Organizer
Do you enjoy getting out in the community and being active, but don't have time to train for a traditional race? Are your kids driving you nuts over the summer and you just want to get away for an evening? Come join us for the Mater Dei PTO's 5th Annual 0.5K & Post Race Party!!
Sign up to run the 0.5K which requires little to no training (of course you should check with your doctor first). Is a 0.5K too far to run, just don't have the energy for it? Don't worry, you can still sign up and we will provide you with a shirt and medal (for a fee) and you can brag about it anyway!
If you’re feeling adventurous, join us before the race for our carb loading contest (prize for the winner). After the race is complete, join us for food, beer and mixed drinks, yard games, music and more. This is a 21 and older only event!
Come for the Run & Stay for the FUN!!
