Description
Get ready to lace up those running shoes and join your AREC pals for an incredible fundraiser happening on December 17th at the Ocean and 54th on the Claremont side of the parking lot!
We've got a range of options for you—whether you're up for a 5K, 10K, 15K, or even a Half Marathon, this event's got something for everyone. Best of all, every step you take will be in support of AREC programs!
And here's the twist: this race coincides with the festive High Tide Run Christmas Cookie Caper! High Tides is generously allowing us to use their race start, timing clock and marked course. So, we will be joining them for this super fun event.
AREC's got a special check-in separate from High Tides at the AREC tent.
Oh, and did we mention the goodies at the finish line? Yep, we've got cookies and snacks waiting for you to refuel after you crush those miles! So mark your calendars, gather your running squad, and let's make this fundraiser one for the books!
Grab a friend and your most festive outfit to help raise 2024 funds for the club.
