Description

Please join your fellow ICU faculty and staff for the 5th Annual ECCC 5K Run/Walk! Even if you are not a runner, we hope that you will join us for a celebration of all of your hard work! We want you to know just how much of a difference you make to patients and families in the ICU--that's why we have invited some former patients and families to share their stories with us! We will also have plenty of food, drink and shade so please come enjoy the beautiful weather (fingers crossed) with your work family! We hope to see you there!

Do I get a free T-shirt?

If you selected a T-shirt size, you will be able to get a T-shirt.

If you were not given the option to select a T-shirt size when you registered, it means that we have run out of T-shirts and you may only pick up a T-shirt if there end up being extras.

 

Why do I have to pay?

We are charging a small fee to attend this event because we thought it would be nice to make a donation to the ECCC Wellbeing Initiative to help support wellness activities throughout the Emory Critical Care Center. This ticket provides you with access to the race (if desired), FREE food and drink, as well as a FREE T-shirt!

Ticket prices will go UP as the event gets closer so please register EARLY!!

What time should I show up if I'm NOT running?

We recommend showing up BEFORE 9:30am if you're not planning to run/walk the 5K.


Can I complete this race with a stroller or wheelchair?

We have updated the course design this year so it is now stroller friendly although there are some big hills just FYI!

 

What happens if it rains?

The event will go on rain or shine! We will have tents to sit under so you will be protected from sun and rain!


Can I bring my spouse?

Yes! We just ask that they purchase a ticket.

 

Can I bring my child(ren)?

Yes! Children less than 12 years of age are free. We ask that if you are bringing children 12 years or older that you purchase a ticket for them.

What if I can't come but I still want to make a donation?

I'm glad you asked! There is an option to make a donation at the top of the homepage. Thank you!
