Partners Make a Difference!
The Mill Towns Race Series will help people strive toward their fitness goals, whether it be achieving a new personal record, qualifying for the Boston marathon or participating in their first race. We are limiting participation to a total of 200 runners to give every participant a personal, easy experience and make sure they feel supported and welcomed.
Hosted by the nonprofit Your Pace or Mine Running Club Inc. (tax ID #99-1300954; Road Runners Club of America Group nonprofit exemption #2702), the Mill Towns Race Series offers your company opportunities to build brand awareness with the Minnesota running community, participate in an employee volunteer activity, support health-promoting activities, and support Project Purple, a 501c3 nonprofit organization funding pancreatic cancer research and patient aid.
We have different sponsorship levels available. To secure a sponsorship, or if you have a different sponsorship idea beyond what's outlined below, please email milltownmarathon@gmail.com.
