Virtual Events
Description
The Heritage Classic is open to all Mayo staff, students, retirees, contractors, volunteers and their families and is the primary fundraiser for the Mayo Clinic Hope Fund, which helps patients and their families cover indirect and unanticipated costs, such as food, lodging and transportation, while receiving care at any Mayo Clinic location.
Due to a trend of lower attendance at the in-person Heritage Classic events held in Arizona, Florida and Rochester, this year’s focus will be on virtual events only. Offering a virtual Heritage Classic is an opportunity for all Mayo Clinic staff and their families to participate from any location.
Events
This years Heritage Classic will offer three virtual events that will take place October 1-31. A t-shirt is included in the registration price and participants must register by August 9th to ensure a t-shirt.
Classic 5K: Complete your 3.1 miles anytime and anywhere during the month of October.
Monthlong Marathon: Accumulate your 26.2 miles by walking or running throughout October.
Mayo Minutes Challenge: Aim to accumulate 160 minutes of physical activity each week in October to celebrate Mayo’s 160th anniversary.
Registration for all events will remain open through Oct. 31. However, anyone registering by July 15 will be entered into a random drawing for a Mayo Clinic merchandise item. Winners will be notified by email.
Swag Shop
During registration you will have the chance to purchase additional Mayo Clinic swag with proceeds supporting the Hope Fund. The Heritage Classic Swag Shop will include the option to order athletic socks, a baseball cap, or additional Heritage Classic t-shirts. The last day to order swag is August 9th.
