Description
Join Red Coyote for our annual Merry Mitchmas 5K & 10K! We are offering 2 distances: a 5K (3.1 miles) or a 10K (6.2 miles.) The course will be a scenic winter wonderland route through Mitch Park in Edmond (it is seriously one of our favorite places to run!).
Merry Mitchmas is an annual holiday favorite and great fun for the whole family! This race is our largest and most popular of the running event of the year and is certain to sell out. Don't miss your chance, register today!
OUR BENEFICIARY PARTNER
Our beneficiary partner organization for the Merry Mitchmas 5K & 10K is Homeless Alliance. Their mission is to rally our community to end homelessness. They strive to end long-term homelessness in OKC by building the capacity of the community through collaboration with other agencies, identifying and filling gaps in homeless services, bringing nationally-recognized best practices to the community, and working to build a system that is more efficient, rational, and caring.
Red Coyote is proud to support their mission and the work they do in our community. If you'd like to help as well, you can donate during registration, make a separate donation at the button above, or visit their website to learn more and get involved.
Thanks to all of you for being a part of this event and helping Red Coyote make a difference!
COAT AND WINTER GEAR DRIVE
As an additional measure of support for our partners at Homeless Alliance, we are encouraging runners to donate gently used winter coats, hats, gloves, scarves, etc. They have also expressed a need for new, packaged underwear and socks for men and women in a variety of sizes. Bring any contribution items along with you on race day and we'll have a collection point on site for drop off. Share the gift of warmth this holiday season and thanks for helping Red Coyote make a difference!
