5K Mother and Child Teams:
In celebration of Mother's Day and to honor Mom, we give the chance
for mom to team up with their child. Team times will be based
on the combined times of Mom & Child. We will have awards
for the top three Mom and Male Child teams and top three Mom and
Female Child teams in each age group. The age groups based on
the child's age are: 0-8, 9-10, 11-12, 13-17, 18-25, and 26+.
Here are our 5k-team rules:
Anyone that is entered as a team will not be eligible for individual
awards. This means if either Mom or child thinks they will win
age group awards don't enter as a team. Your team age group will
be determined by the age and sex of the child. So if Mom is 80
and child is a 50-year-old man then they are going to be in the
male 26+ group. Both Mom and child must run the 5k to be a team.
A child in a stroller does not count. Sorry Mom if you have more
than one child and you want to be in the team ompetition, you
have to pick one or all of you just compete in the regular 5k
|
Group sign up for church and organization groups:
If your church or organization wants to participate as group you
can enter that way. Rather than filling out numerous entry forms,
we have one where all can sign up on one form. It is always more
fun to bring your church group with you.
Click Here for the form (this form requires Adobe Acrobat
Reader to view) We must receive this form by May 1, 2009.
We will have group awards in the following
