A little backstory on the long sleeve shirt & medal designs:
Designed with a focus on sustainability and the natural beauty of Florida, the shirt features a rendering of a Bald Cypress tree, a keystone species known for its ability to live for 1,000+ years and importance to the region. The tree rings on both the shirt and medal represent the history and tradition of Cherrylake. The shirt itself is made of a soft and breathable tri-blend fabric that provides UPF 40+ sun protection, making it perfect for outdoor activities. As a participant in the race, you'll be helping to plant a tree in honor of your efforts, and the spinning medal serves as a reminder of your accomplishment and the race's commitment to environmental conservation. Whether you're wearing the shirt or displaying the medal, you'll have a fun and meaningful memento of your experience racing through the farm.
