2021 Art & Garden Fun Run

This year’s Fun Run will take place virtually to prioritize the health and safety of our runners, walkers, and our community. We encourage our community to join us in this new spin on a fun tradition. You may run solo, with your family, or in a pod socially distanced team. Remember to join us on our Zoom Call to start the race at 10AM on Saturday. If you are unable to run on Saturday, you have three days to complete your distance! See below for more details. 


 


2021 FUN RUN DETAILS

• Distance: Runners/walkers choose their own distance. Challenge yourself and have fun!!
• Date: The Fun Run will take place on April 24, 2021, starting with a Zoom Call at 10AM. For maximum flexibility, participants will have a three-day window (April 23–25) to complete their run/walk.
• The Race Start (for those participating on 4/24/21): Tune into a Zoom Call hosted by a special guest at  ZOOM LINK at 10AM to start your race. Feel free to stay on the call as you walk or run or just pop in for the start.
• Where: Wherever you would like! While we are saddened that we cannot be together at Pocopson Elementary School, we can still fulfill this yearly tradition in our own communities as we walk or run virtually.
• Fees: $5 for each PES student runner; $10 for each adult/PES alumni runner 
• Teams: Feel free to get a team together, whether is it your family, neighbors in your pod, or even a socially distanced run with friends. Teams of two or more can deduct $1 per person from the race fee!  For example, Team DeLuca, with 5 runners (3 PES students and 2 adults), should pay $30 rather than $35 (deduct $5 for 5 team members)
• Documenting your run: Upon completion, email team and/or runners’ names and distances and LOTS of PICTURES or a video to pespto@ucfsd.net. We will acknowledge all participants in a communication in Around Our School. Or post your pictures and videos on our shared Facebook Page
